Warpath ordered an Autobot force into battle on Hydrax Plateau during the Great War. Presumably, most of them got killed by Oil Slick's Cosmic Rust. Bots of Science

He took a young and rebellious Prowl to Master Yoketron after the bot tried to escape participation in the later stages of the Autobot-Decepticon War.

Warpath left grumbling about Prowl being a "draft-dodging peacenik" but not without uttering a "bam, pow" first. Five Servos of Doom
