Talk:Decepticon High Council

This council would have to have been under Straxus/Megatron, right? Unless the chronology in the UK books is weird. Straxus/Megatron took control of the Decepticon Empire in #214 the events here took place from #230–242 then Straxus/Megatron died in #244. That would make Staxus/Megatron the emperor who, through this council, appointed Thunderwing to be head of his army. Or something. - Starfield 19:37, 14 November 2009 (EST)

The continuity is screwy. Remember that in taking place before #232-233, "Assault on the Ark" in turn takes place fourteen months before "King Con!", which would almost certainly place it before Straxus/Megatron's return to Cybertron. - Chris McFeely 20:03, 14 November 2009 (EST)

So this Council is under the Triumverate (The Fall and Rise of the Decepticon Empire)? - Starfield 20:14, 14 November 2009 (EST)

I have always assumed the High Council was under themselves, because what Decepticon leader or group of leaders would elect a council to vote someone else into their office of leadership? --Monzo 20:19, 14 November 2009 (EST)

That's what I'm wondering. What was Thunderwing appointed to? Is he being appointed to supreme commander of all Decepticons, or just leader of the army? I've been reading the US series and I get the idea that after Megatron was lost in the Volcano, the Decepticons on Cybertron had a shadowy leadership only hinted at in the books. Straxus was governor of Polyhex. Just governor of one providence? Ratbat was fuel auditor. Fuel auditor to whom? On Earth, when Ratbat took command of the Earth-based forces he took orders from Decepticon Imperial Headquarters. What's that now? Then Thunderwing appears before this council and Megatron clone destroys the Triumverate in a book called "The Fall... of the Decepticon Empire." Was the Trimuverate there the whole time running things? It looks to me like they were. - Starfield 20:40, 14 November 2009 (EST)
