The Liegian Darts are the artifact of the Liege Maximo. The darts contained powerful toxins designed to incapacitate Maximo's foes in various ways once they entered the body.
Fiction
The Covenant of Primus
Liege Maximo used his darts to poison Unicron during the Thirteen's war with the Chaos-Bringer, although they didn't hurt Unicron nearly as much as Maximo's acid tongue. The Covenant of Primus
2019 IDW continuity
Airachnid cited the Darts as one of the artifacts of the Primes that had gone missing after the Age of the Primes. Light/Star
EarthSpark cartoon
Liege Maximo had Hot Rod use one of the Liegian Darts to recreate the Emberstone by drawing the power out of Robby Malto's and Mo Malto's cyber-sleeves. Later, Liege Maximo used the Liegian Darts to battle Optimus Prime when he made an escape from Liege's base.
In order to control Cybertron's remaining transformers, Liege had also embedded one of the darts in the AllSpark in order to cause it to leach life from everyone on the planet's surface. This allowed Liege Maximo to strictly control the transformers' supply of Energon. Legacy of Hope
Games
Transformers: Galactic Trials
The Liegian Darts were an artifact that could be acquired. Transformers: Galactic Trials
Trivia
- While we can only speculate, a possible origin of the Liegian Darts may lie in a Geoff Senior illustration of the Liege Maximo produced for the unofficial "Alignment" story, as seen at right. This piece depicts the titanic Maximo sending forth three pointed spacecraft from his palm, and was notably reprinted in an official capacity in Transformers: The Ultimate Guide, a book which became the de facto reference text for the franchise for years afterwards. Out of context, could this image have been interpreted as a less enormous Liege Maximo firing dart weapons from his hand, thus inspiring the Liegian Darts when the time came to establish a signature artifact for each Prime?
