Notes

• The 113th Battalion was named by James Roberts after issue #113 of the UK comic, which got him hooked on the series.
• Autobot battalions are larger than their real-world counterparts, which only comprise between 300 and 1,200 soldiers.
• Presumably there are, or were, at least 112 other battalions of Autobots.
