Nightingale's Roost (Update): With so many attacks focused on the Autobase itself, Botanica has wisely moved repair operations to the supplemental medical station a couple of blocks away from the base, and there she, First Aid, and Boondocker are setting up, although the possibility of remaining mobile instead has been suggested.
Too bad they left the comatose Emirate Xaaron-3 behind in base.

Who the hell do you think I am?! (Updated): Near the point of Hellbender's intrusion, oversized red sword clashes with oversized red sword as Grimlock and RiD Scourge face-off at last. Grimlock, unfamiliar as he is with Scourge's weaponry, didn't recognize the rifle Scourge was wielding as another Transformer until Eye-fire's sneak attack. By the time Grimlock could react, however, Eye-fire was gone.

Cue up 'Ride of the Valkyries' (Updated): The air-based Decepticons and Autobots-3 began their attack from the air at close to the same time as Hellbender emerged from beneath. Two anti-aircraft gun mounts were brought online from the roof of Autobase, but so far they've completely failed to hit anyone (Pssst: Someone. Please. At least acknowledge the attack). What's worse, the Decepticons have already determined that while the gun mounts are shielded and the roof has been reinforced, there are vulnerable areas along the building itself. The 'Bots may have a Constructibot working for them, but there's only so much that can get done in a single week! The Decepticons have scattered to approach at different angles, and Slingshot has flown through, attacked Starscream, and cut Fleetwind off from the main attack. The Seeker and the Aerialbot have darted off to another thread to resolve their differences, while Starscream has ordered a search for the forcefield generator and begun firing on the gun-mount with his Null Ray.

Cue Up 'Danger Zone' (Updated): As mentioned previously, Slingshot (the good one) has flown through the Decepticon attack thread, fired a rocket on Starscream, and flown right back out. In the process, he's cut Fleetwind off from his attack, leaving the two of them to resolve their differences through lasers.

Autobots-3 Charge (Updated): While the Decepticons attack from below and above, the alternate Autobots attack from the very same level. Rodimus Prime-3 is leading a charge of Autobots towards the base. While the Decepticons focus largely on tactical targets, the Autobots are out to take out the people.1 During the approach, Pee-Dee-3 has peeled off to make a run for Perceptor's lab, and Mirage-3 has departed to set up for sniping in secret. The rest of the Autobots-3 have now been met by the normalverse Autobot forces, who have scattered in an attempt to break up the large group of their evil alternates. It's worked, not because the evil Autobots have failed to see through the ploy, but because their task is death and dismemberment, which can't be accomplished without chasing down their prey. Rodimus Prime-3 himself has continued charging deeper into the city, heading now towards the last reported location of his alternate: the building brought down by Hellbender. Spinister is in hiding, ordered by Starscream to spy on the Dark Prime.

Kup's Chase (Undated): Kup rolled out to meet the charge of the Autobots-3, but at the last moment, gave the order to break up and head down various side-streets. Nightbeat-3 has given chase, causing Kup to use plan B: beat the solder after anyone stupid enough to follow.

Ladies like being pursued (New Addition): Arcee accompanied Kup as part of the group to meet the oncoming Autobots-3 charge, and like him, she's taken off down a side-alley. It remains to be seen who will chase after the pretty pink Ben Hur.

Vast, Predatory Whirly-Bird (Updated): Blackout and Ironfire deal each other damage with Ironfire gettin the short-end of the stick as far as such things go. When it seems like all hope is lost and the power-plant is going to go down, Slag shows up to burninate the helicopter-side.

Deconstruction (Updated): The epic battle continues with Hook ordering Demolishor off to assist Long Range in getting up via radio. Mixmaster behaves like a bombardier beetle and sprays unstable flammables at where Wheelie's firerock came from. Shortround panics at the firerock striking him, dashes forward, and finds the pit trap Hook was warning the Stunticons to avoid. He is now out of thread.

New Exhibit (Updated): Bambi and Optimus Prime work out their differences in a way that doesn't involve bashing people over the head! See, other Dinobots? There are ways to do this sort of thing. Optimus natters over the radio with people. Bambi is super-cute. Optimus speechifies at Bambi. Bambi grades him.
SUDDENLY, GIANT MINING WORM!
Also suddenly, OMEGA SUPREME!

Cat and Mouse (New Addition): Jazz rushes off down the alleys in an attempt to lure an Autobot-3 into pain and suffering. Unfortunately, he suspects he has not actually gotten anyone's attention.

Buzzard's eye-view: Synapse-3 goes skyside to spy. So do Airazor and Synapse-1. And Skyfire-3. Synapse-3 is yelled at, Synapse-1 has missiles shot at him, and Skyfire-1 shows up. This is clearly going to go to hell in a handbasket in the not too distant future.

Autobots-3 Charge (Updated): Some of the bad guys, of course, are not interested in the tempting targets put before them. Some are. Variety is the spice of life and all that. Arcee, Jazz, and Kup have split off to be chased with varying degrees of success. Nightbeat-3 and Oracle-3 have given chase. Perceptor-3 and Mirage-3 have wandered off on other tasks. Pee-Dee is having to shoot at someone to entice him to chase her. Bumblebee-3 and Goldbug are showing off how awesome their robo-peens are.

Cue Up 'Ride of the Valkyries' (Updated): So far, the anti-aircraft guns have hit Duskwing, Needlenose, and Slingshot. The good one. They have missed Starscream, but he got winged by Slingshot's missile. (Acknowledge the attacks, people!)
Duskwing has boldly leapt onto the roof to attack the shielded gunners! Duskwing, being dumber than a sack of hammers, does not consider that the shields might stop him too.
Long Haul, meanwhile, puts his gun on auto-targeting so he can deal with more important matters, like saving lives.
