I'm pretty sure it's been explicitly stated that the IDW's Beast Wars title is NOT in continuity with their main G1-based stuff. Even if that weren't incredibly obvious by it's very nature. --KilMichaelMcC 08:19, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Hrm, that sounds a bit familiar. Clearly I was thrown by the consistent-with-BW lethal energon fields in the Shockwave Spotlight. I shall remove it from the timeline. -Derik 08:27, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

"6.2 metacycles ago, with 1 metacycle = 13 months" uh, that would make the events of the first Ark happen 80.6 months ago, not 6.7 million years.... --UndeadScottsman 11:52, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Forgot the million, sorry. --ItsWalky 16:26, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

2006/2007

In the modern era, starting with Infiltration in 2006, isn't it sorta indeterminate when 2007 is, comic wise? Sure, Escalation was published in late 2006-2007, but chronologically it starts right after Infiltration/Stormbringer. Also, while the miniseries is released over a 6-month span, it actually takes place over a few days (weeks at most). Perhaps we should just combine 2006 and 2007 to 2006+ and just list the events in the order in which they happened. Thoughts? --MistaTee 14:18, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I don't really see the kids hanging out with the Autobots for a year between Infiltration and Escalation...--Nevermore 07:25, 17 October 2007 (UTC)


Clean up?

The Infiltration/Escalation/Devastation sections seem way too long and detailed for a timeline. Shouldn't things like Sixshot's battle with the Autobots be like one or two sentences long, rather than an issue-by-issue citing of events? I'm asking 'cause it's possible somebody's trying to verify that the events can really happen at the pace they're portrayed (which is a laudable goal given the current furor over at Spotlight: Arcee), but I suspect it's mostly a result of things being added piecemeal as each issue comes out, without any re-writing of previous material. -- Repowers 00:39, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
