Fiction

Dreamwave Generation 1 comics continuity

The Lightning Strike Coalition includes:

Following Optimus Prime and Megatron's disappearances at the beginning of "The Dark Ages", the Autobots and Decepticons soon split into several sub-factions. The Lightning Strike Coalition (LSC), was formed out of Grimlock's old unit when Optimus received the title of Prime and the Matrix of Leadership.

The LSC acted as a commando unit striking Predacon and Decepticon sites and convoys. War Within: The Dark Ages When Ultra Magnus stepped in charge, the LSC members largely disbanded, but Grimlock put together a new fighting force known as the Dynobots with several ex-LSC members. This new unit followed a Decepticon group to Earth, sometime after the Ark's crash landing on that planet, but millions of years before the Earth-bound Transformers reactivated in early 1980s. War Within: The Age of Wrath

This tale would have been told in a story entitled "Rules of Extinction", inserted in Dreamwave's "Generation One 2004 Datatracks Annual", which was never released due to Dreamwave's collapse in the same year.
