'''A Mini-Con civil war erupts, and what Autobots remain on an abandoned Cybertron are called in for help.'''
'''Unicron joins the Mini-Con civil war.'''


==Synopsis==
==Synopsis==
Gigacycles after the defeat of [[Ramjet (Universe)|Ramjet]], Sentinel Maximus is completing the repairs on [[Vector Sigma]] with help from Skyfall.  Over-Run's quest to determine Skyfall's past has dug up a possible lead -- a carving found in the energon pools deep within [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] (where the combiner teams were dormant) at the end of the [[Powerlinx Battles]] shows a robot who looks similar to Skyfall and an unidentified robot.  This carving would suggest that Skyfall is 20 million cycles old, nearly as old as [[Vector Prime]].
The battle rages between the [[Autobot]]- and [[Decepticon]]-aligned [[Mini-Con|Mini-Cons]], as the [[Council of Elder|Council of Elders]]' recruited Autobots up the ante in devastating ways.  The battle does not encompass Skyfall and Landquake, who question each other about their origins, with no success.


This revelation was interrupted by an emergency call from Anti-Blaze of the [[Mini-Con]] [[Council of Sages]].  A war has erupted between two factions of Mini-Cons on the moons orbitting Cybertron.  The Autobots agree to help, and Sentinel Maximus, [[Omega Prime]], Skyfall, and Downshift arrive in the debris field between the two moons, where they meet up with Anti-Blaze, [[Checkpoint (Cybertron)|Checkpoint]], [[Scythe]], and Perceptor.
Unicron interrupts the battle with a fantastic explosion; the Mini-Cons' purpose has been served, and they will now be terminated.  Sunstorm, Thrust, and [[Ramjet (Cybertron)|Ramjet]] are disposed of, warning their followers futilely of their betrayal.


Intelligence shows a cannon being constructed that is aimed at the Mini-Cons' primary colony on one of the moons, guarded by a Decepticon, Landquake.  Sentinel Maximus and Skyfall are sent to deal with the seemingly lone Decepticon while the others take out the [[Energon (Energon)|energon]] tanks which power the cannon.  Skyfall confronts Landquake, who resembles the unidentified robot from the energon pool carving.
Unicron, Sentinel Maximus, and Omega Prime lock arms and guns in combat, but suddenly Over-Run contacts Omega Prime to tell them that [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] seems to be opening up, shifting, and breaking apart...
 
Meanwhile, Soundwave and Unicron watch from the shadows, particularly interested in the meeting of these two Transformers.

* The Decepticon-aligned Mini-Cons are carrying green energon weapons.
 
* Unicron is the same size as Soundwave -- in other words, he's normal Transformer height, rather than planetoid-sized.

Unicron joins the Mini-Con civil war.

Synopsis

The battle rages between the Autobot- and Decepticon-aligned Mini-Cons, as the Council of Elders' recruited Autobots up the ante in devastating ways. The battle does not encompass Skyfall and Landquake, who question each other about their origins, with no success.

Unicron interrupts the battle with a fantastic explosion; the Mini-Cons' purpose has been served, and they will now be terminated. Sunstorm, Thrust, and Ramjet are disposed of, warning their followers futilely of their betrayal.

Unicron, Sentinel Maximus, and Omega Prime lock arms and guns in combat, but suddenly Over-Run contacts Omega Prime to tell them that Cybertron seems to be opening up, shifting, and breaking apart...


Errors

  • Over-Run's name is misspelled as "Overrun."

Items of note

  • The Decepticon-aligned Mini-Cons seem to have a few Omnicon Skyblasts on their side, though they only seem to appear in panels to be cannon-fodder.
  • Landquake's Energon-forging powers protect him similarly to Skyfall's forcefields.
  • This story takes place during the Cybertron episode "Cybertron."
  • Watch out for that Umbral Blaster. Skyfall and Landquake had trouble protecting themselves from the blast. Luckily, its aim leaves something to be desired.
