Notes
[edit]- The Fool's Fortune was first mentioned as one of five types of "hidden" labeled paths on the Earthrise toyline's collectible space map. The key to read those path labels is shown on the map fragment packaged with the Titan Class Scorponok figure. The other types of paths labeled in the legend are "Space bridge", "Ark", "Nemesis", and "Quintesson". Interestingly, the Fool's Fortune is the only path with a departure point outside the map. The nature of the Fool's Fortune was not clear until it appeared in the War for Cybertron Trilogy cartoon.
- The Fool's Fortune route appears to travel to, through, or near many locations, including the Caminus and Biosphera, and starts to parallel to the Ark upon an intersection. The same exact path is taken in the War for Cybertron Trilogy show when the Fool's Fortune finds the Ark and follows it for the rest of the Earthrise chapter.
- The Fool's Fortune is only referred to as the Fortune in the War for Cybertron Trilogy cartoon.
