Unknowingly, he took the two to Megatron under the impression that he and the other Decepticons valued human life, but when Megatron took them as prisoners, Skyfire started to question his allegiance. When the Autobots arrived, Skyfire engaged them in battle, and then rescued Sparkplug and Spike Witwicky when they became stranded on an ice floe. Reunited with his old friend, Starscream, Skyfire joined the Decepticon ranks. Millions of years later, in 1984, the Decepticons discovered the frozen Skyfire, while draining heat energy from the Earth's core and reactivated him. Starscream searched for his friend, but was unable to locate him and returned to Cybertron alone. Skyfire wished to scrutinize the planet further, and moving in close enough to the planet, a polar wind storm swept him up and buried him beneath the Arctic ice. Together, they investigated an uncharted planet, actually a prehistoric Earth, where they failed to find any signs of intelligent life. On Cybertron before the war between the Autobots and Decepticons, Skyfire was a scientist and explorer working with Starscream. In the animated series, Jetfire was called Skyfire, for reasons discussed below. He uses a photon missile launcher in robot mode.

Jetfire is created from the same mold as the VF-1S Super Valkyrie from the Macross series (see Toys), including the VF-1S's Gun pod, which is described as a laser on Jetfire's technical specifications. It is this overriding belief that tempers his bravado in battle, but nevertheless, he is often one of the most eager Autobots to plunge into combat, and his position as one of the fastest usually means he is the first to do so. Jetfire's dedication to the Autobot cause is matched only by his devotion to scientific and technological advancement - this, he believes, is the only way in which victory over the Decepticons can be achieved.
BATTLETECH URBAN WARFARE RAN OUT OF HOTSPOTS TV
In the many stories of Jetfire (who was referred to as Skyfire in the TV series, known in Italy as Aquila, Eagle) told through the numerous Generation 1 continuities, there is one constant aspect - an early affiliation with the Decepticons, which has served only to convince him to side with the Autobots. VF-1S Super Valkyrie, Cybertronian jet fighter " Victory lies in the conquest of unknown mysteries." " Among mysteries of science lies the key to victory." Anyway that’s my two cents.Aerialbots, Cyberjets, Micro Vehicles, Voyagers, seekersĪir Guardian, Scientist, Seeker commander (War for Cybertron) because c-bills are the meaning of life, seems like such an easy way out for developers. With such deep lore, in such an epic space opera between the titanic forces of great houses/Clans, merc farm c-bills. How about Batchall instead of just a simplistic contract system? Compete/coordinate with other commanders. Compete for promotions, get embroiled in internal politics, sort out issues in a circle of equals, make larger strategic choices and manage campaign supporting assets like air and ground support. You can still build your Star/Lance, customise Mechs, manage resources, training and personal as a loyalist but. The whole Merc build your company and farm Cbill thing was cool fun the first few times and I certainly hope they keep it in for all those Mercs at heart.
Still, there is something about building something up from the ground to compete, survive, and thrive in the harsh world of BattleTech.Īlthough I don't think we will see the Clans too soon in HBS's BattleTech (maybe a BT2?), when it does come, I'd still like to create and grow a Mercenary company in that timeline. This isn't to say that I don't like games where you are working for an organization (MechWarrior 2 and MechCommander are some of my favorite titles). MechWarrior 4 was good, but it really shined in Mercenaries IMO. This franchise just seems like it is catered to accentuating a game where you are striving to make a name for yourself and a profit. Maybe it is just me, but I always feel like the franchise is at it's best when it is a Mercenary focused game.
