Beast Wars vs Beast Era
The "Beast Wars" is the battle between Optimus Primal's Maximals and Megatron's Predacons that occurred on prehistoric Earth. The Beast Era is the native time era of those characters. The distinction is, perhaps, not made clear in the sentence that you changed. --Khajidha 09:02, 13 October 2010 (EDT)
- Thanks, however, while I do understand the difference between the Beast Wars and the overall Beast Era, it seems to me that the period that is described as taking place over a variable 3-ish million years is surely supposed to be the Great War depicted earlier in the G1 timeline by the G1 franchise (to make a similar distinction), rather than the Beast Era/Wars, which is how that part of the sentence originally read. As originally written, the sentence appeared to be vaguely contradictory, unless what you mean is that the overall conflict between Primal and Megatron's Beast Warriors (The Beast Wars) are look place ACROSS a 3 million year period DUE TO TIME TRAVEL, as distinct from the date of the "native" beast era being 300 years after G1?
- I'm now actually pretty sure the latter is the original intent of the sentence, but as my confusion indicates, it is not a particularly clearly-expressed point.
- May I suggest and alternative phrasing to better clarify the issue?
