Marvel UK Generation 1 comics

Fort Scyk is a Decepticon base located in the Stanix region on the south-western side of Cybertron. With Stanix captured early in the war and deep in Decepticon-held territory, Fort Scyk is far from the front and is seen as bit of a dumping ground for those stationed there. The garrison consists of both young and green Decepticons, as well as those the High Command would rather see out of the way such as Megadeath.

The only bright spot is that it's located near numerous Neutralist towns such as Yuss, just three hics from the fort, providing plenty of target practice. The Magnificent Six!

Exodus

Fort Scyk was a forbidding fortress that acted as training grounds for the High Council militia and civil defence units before the war. Dating from ancient times, it was the location where the idea of formalizing Cybertron's Caste system was first raised.

Before the war Stanix was also one of the main nodes in the Communication Grid that spanned the whole planet. This node was located on the eastern edge of Stanix city, below Fort Scyk. Megatron's supporters detonated an electromagnetic pulse bomb there, destroying one corner of Fort Scyk, killing its magistrate Gauntlet, and disrupting the Grid node.

Later, Fort Scyk was to be the site of the first true battle of the war itself, with Megatron personally leading the seekers into battle. Though they fought valiantly the militia was overwhelmed and the Fort fell to the Decepticons. Exodus
