The space cruiser carried many weapons, and its hull was able to withstand the crushing water pressure of an ocean...which is exactly where it ended up. <A name=Fiction></A> <H2><SPAN class=editsection>[<A title="Edit section: Fiction" href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Decepticon_space_cruiser&action=edit&section=1">edit</A>]</SPAN> <SPAN class=mw-headline>Fiction</SPAN></H2><A name=Generation_1_cartoon></A> <H3><SPAN class=editsection>[<A title="Edit section: Generation 1 cartoon" href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Decepticon_space_cruiser&action=edit&section=2">edit</A>]</SPAN> <SPAN class=mw-headline>Generation 1 cartoon</SPAN></H3> After coming back online and leaving the <A title=Autobot href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Autobot">Autobot</A>'s <A title="Ark (G1)" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ark_(G1)">vessel</A>, the Decepticons quickly made efforts to plunder Earth's resources and return to Cybertron. Using the same design as <A title="Nemesis (G1)" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Nemesis_(G1)">their original vessel</A>, the Decepticons began acquiring materials to build a new ship and go home.

After several days (months?) of amassing <A title="Energon cube" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Energon_cube">Energon cubes</A>, fighting the Autobots, and destroying a few buildings for raw materials (or sport, depending on who did the destruction), the Decepticons were ready to leave. The Autobots made one last desperate assault on the Decepticon camp, but only managed to stall their delay. <A title="Optimus Prime (G1)" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Optimus_Prime_(G1)">Optimus Prime</A> made the bold decision to chase after them using <A title="Sideswipe (G1)" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Sideswipe_(G1)">Sideswipe</A>'s jet pack, but the weapons on the space cruiser shot him down.

However, <A title="Mirage (G1)" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Mirage_(G1)">Mirage</A> managed to sneak aboard, and took advantage of <A title="Starscream (G1)" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Starscream_(G1)">Starscream</A>'s latest coup attempt against <A title="Megatron (G1)" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Megatron_(G1)">Megatron</A> to destroy several pieces of equipment. Mirage managed to escape, and the space cruiser crashed into the ocean. The Autobots believed the Decepticons were destroyed, but they managed to survive the crash. <SPAN class=tt1_nowrap style="BORDER-RIGHT: #cccccc 1px solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 5px; BORDER-TOP: #cccccc 0px solid; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; FONT-SIZE: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: #cccccc 1px solid; PADDING-TOP: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: #cccccc 0px solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ececec"><A title="More than Meets the Eye, Part 3" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/More_than_Meets_the_Eye,_Part_3">MTMTE3</A></SPAN>

After several months on the ocean floor, the Decepticons built several nearby buildings with a telescoping docking tower<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-0><A title="" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Decepticon_space_cruiser#cite_note-0">[1]</A></SUP>, a ship-to-surface "elevator" allowing them to enter and leave at will without getting wet, establishing it as <A title="Decepticon Headquarters" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Decepticon_Headquarters">their primary base</A> on Earth. <SPAN class=tt1_nowrap style="BORDER-RIGHT: #cccccc 1px solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 5px; BORDER-TOP: #cccccc 0px solid; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; FONT-SIZE: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: #cccccc 1px solid; PADDING-TOP: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: #cccccc 0px solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ececec"><A title="Transport to Oblivion" href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transport_to_Oblivion">Transport to Oblivion</A></SPAN>

The vessel's fate after the Decepticons conquered Cybertron and abandoned Earth is unknown.
