Fiction

Dreamwave comics continuity

The Forge is where Megatron trained the majority of the Decepticons, as well as applying extensive physical and psychological conditioning, bodily modification, and branding, all under the heavily bribed nose of Emirate Xeon. It's here that Grimlock met Starscream. It's also rumored that the repeated abuse seared a few new subroutines into Starscream's fetish processors. The War Within Preview

IDW Generation 1 continuity

The Forge was originally an illegal gladiatorial arena deep within Kaon, but once Prowl and his forces started to close in, the locations of the fights were changed each time, with the Constructicons building the arena on an ad-hoc basis. They were also seen using a portable smelting pool (actually Mixmaster) to melt down an empty for the foundation. It is unclear if each of these arenas were designated "The Forge" in turn or if that appellation was unique to the original arena. Megatron Origin #2
