Decepticlones are the common enemies in the Transformers (PS2) video game. Megatron's new Decepticlones are less powerful than Decepticons, most of them don't even transform and display no individual intelect, but due to their sheer number, they have allowed Megatron to nearly conquer all of Cybertron!
Decepticlones provide the role of generic baddies, as no other drones existed in Armada at the time. A Decepticlone toy in the Attacktix line has been announced.
Decepticlone Classes
Basic Humanoid Units
Small purple Decepticlones. Due to their small size and limited combat potential, they are typically used for manual labor.
Larger orange units. They make up the vast bulk of the Decepticlone attack force.
Massive red clones. They are few in number, but staggeringly powerful. Armed with a wide variety of weapons.
Specialty Humanoid Units
Medium-large sized, incredibly dangerous silver units. They often appear in large groups of smaller units. Their increased mobility and teleportation makes them dangerous enemies. They favor short ranged weapons.
Large, gorilla-shaped Decepticlones. They carry EMP cannons which can short out weapons, and have advanced hand-to-hand combat skills. Some models come equpped with stealth camouflage, rendering them hard to see without the aid of a Minicon.
The only Decepticlone type capable of transformation, they convert into rolling wheels to cover great distances at high speed, and are equipped with powerful dual energy cannons. Similar to the Droideka of Star Wars fame.
These flying Decepticlones have two different attack patterns. The Jet Lasers patrol areas in squads while hovering, while the Jet Snipers sit and wait for targets to cross their line of fire, then attack with their powerful sniper rifles.
Support/ Nonhumanoid Units
Slow-moving, four legged tanks with a turret ontop. Spider Tanks are heavilly armored and their powerful laser cannon has two modes of fire: a basic, weak shot, and a powerful, charged bolt of energy.
- Artillery Units:
Hovertanks that are designed to launch heavy explosive rounds far distances. They lack short-range weapons, but have powerful shields should enemies get too close.
- Turrents
Manned by Medium Units
- Speeder Bikes (not official name)
Manned by Two Medium Units-- did these actually appear in the game? The only pics I see of them is the early preview ones...
- Sentry Drones:
Small floating orbs that keep an eye out for Autobots and raise alarms upon contact. They are very lightly armed, but fast.
- Drop Ships:
Large flying ships. They carry no weapons, but can produce other Decepticlone soldiers if alerted. They have tremendous defensive power.
