Movie continuity

At some point in the distant past, the Defense Force was involved in a conflict with the aliens from the Eshems Nebula. This necessitated its leader, Megatron working with his fellow solddiers in combating the alien menace which had arrived above Cybertron itself and attacked. The assault allowed Megatron to declare war whereupon he ordered the Science Division leader Optimus to assemble his forces. However, Optimus did not agree with this decision and informed Megatron that the Defense Force's purpose was to provide defense, not to incide wars as by doing such an act they would be breaking the ideals of their society. However, an angry Megatron simply shoved Optimus into the wall and told him that their people needed to change and gathered his teams to combat the invaders.

The conflict later went into the Eshems Nebula iself where the battle turned in the favor of the Cybertronian Defense Forces. Guided by a mysterious entity, Megatron and his forces obliterated the aliens fleets and informed his team that they would begin plans to dominate the neighboring systems. Defiance issue 2
