Notes
- This is a campaign event.
- The plot is based on the IDW Publishing comic series Megatron Origin.
- Alpha Trion's alternate mode is a hover-craft mode created for the comics which has thus far only been used in a flashback in "Earthfall Part 3: The Mind Bomb".
- Ratbat naturally uses a form based on his Generations toy.
- Sentinel Prime's robot mode card is very similar to this image though with a different head.
- Megatron's evolution card art shows him variously with his hair unfurled, fighting Sentinel Prime, and sitting on his throne.
