1 claim per mission, right, I saw a few people making multiple claims on the same mission?

A duel tactic alt like a tank, is an obvious ground even though it has strafe. I tend to look at it like this: Can the alt fly in that mode? A tank .. no, but a jet yes, an insecticon likely...

As a test, I have reset ALL armours to 1000 tonnes of stock in each. Now we'll.have a good idea of just how useful the armour missions are now as well! (Can confirm the 7-11 one definitely works, although it did only give us Aluminium, so someone in the mission must have had a rank of 0.)

so weapon or gadget? weapon is of particular importance to me for a recent mission, based on this I'd say ground since they can't fly on their own?

Correct. This is where stratic thinking works best. Personally I fill the harder to get links first. Each task has to have his own mission link.

So, as I read this, if say Sprockitz and I have claims in the same mission, only one of us can get credit for it? How would we know who got the credit and who has to claim it again?

1 claim per person per mission. So we can both claim 1 of the 30 things in a given mission, could be the same number or a different one.

What isn't allowed is a single person claiming multiple things in the same mission.

The Potentate, for example, tried claiming multiple things off the list from the same mission. This isn't allowed.

Special challenge #1


Pretty sure the Gestalt entity would be called The Baconator...

Prowl has blown his cover and has been seen on the battlefield alongside other 'turned' Transformers. He cannot be allowed to combine with any other characters to create a Reaver gestalt*, you must stop him!!



Orders: Stop Prowl Combining!!

Round up and capture any 4 combiner limbs from either Scramble City or the Combiner Wars line, and any single Torso unit, to stop the Reavers in their tracks!

Duplicates are allowed for the limbs. Scramble City-style 5-point combiners and Devastator combiners only. If in doubt the alt being chosen must be based on a 'scramble city type' combining character as listed here.

*Please note, this is not an indication that combiners will be added to the game at all, sadly.

If you can find a reference to the character using any specific alt on either that photo gallery here or TFwiki the I'll almost certainly allow it unless -Soundwave- says otherwise.

Arson is a fire truck but no specific note which character it represents.

No.

The better they are, the quicker they complete the hunt it appears...

We have a Winner!!

Sprockitz
has completed the hunt as of mission #149859. (Including the trainwreck challenge!)

This means that you all have 48 hours to look at your logs and see how many more claims you can fit in. Don't be disheartened if you did not get as many as you like - these weapons will be available for everybody in the Weapons Shop (sponsored by WarPorn Industries) and for every challenge you completed, another weapon can be added for your teams average level, so everyone is a winner here!!

Stay tuned as the game isn't over yet, there are still more challenges to come!
