Good to see this has got as far as having an OOC go up. I'll admit to being slightly dubious about having players being both factions, as I could see it resulting in squabbling and accusations of power gaming etc. once we actually get into a fight, but I'll remain open minded.I'll look forward to a CS skeleton going up and being able to plan my character. I hope we go down less of the cheesy and simplistic cartoon route, and get more of the depth/personality/etc from the comic books. Though I'd imagine we'll kind of have to if we're roleplaying!

Honestly if the players aren't A holes then it can work, also not everyone wants to be in the Autobots. I know power play happens in RP's. In fact I know first hand on how things can and will go out of control as my first RP died this way. All due to power abuse and also having the "I think they are going to do this at this time and place". I like the Autobots but they have no real range like the Decepticons have. I mean Megatron became a gun, Prime became a fucking truck. Out of the two Megatron was more interesting. We will go the dark and gritty route meaning you will lose an arm or your chest plate will be removed or damaged. Death will be important but it does not mean the end of a character. So far though I have not had this problem as GM, also there are quite a few NPC's to beat on so I hoe to god no one starts god modding or Mary Sue everything. I think I will have them evolve and change but I am not too sure on that part yet.
