It occurred to me this is probably better than piling on the announcement post. If folks wanna add in their characters on this thread, well hey, that's great.
As for me…
Holi and Wreckage-3 are background unless/until something that might be spiffy with them involved comes up. Holi-3… probably closer to background than not, but whatever works with him. He's the only bad guy I've got in this fight. Rattrap will be around as a main. Swerve-3 is currently busy being a distressed damsel.

Springer and Grimlock are mains. Grimlock-3 and Cannonball-3 are sorta-background. One of those "depends on how things turn out" type things. Boondocker's a backgrounder unless he's needed for Medical/Engineering stuff.

Eye-Fire will be main.

Skystrike and Skystrike-3 will probably be background unless otherwise suggested. Will probably bring the latter into the Offering thread if no other Decepti-3 fliers show up.

Rodimus Prime and Rodimus Prime-3 are both pretty central to events. Both the Fleetwinds are currently active. Override is in the Beseeching thread, but depending how things go, may end up a background combatant. Needlenose is currently flying cross country, but depending on how things go, may fade into background on arrival. Kup-3 will be flying cross country as soon as Skyfire-3 can break off to pick up that crew. Same thing as above for Needlenose.
Kup, Long Haul, Needlenose-3, and Counterpunch are somewhere in the indeterminte background. They are available to be brought to the foreground if anyone wants to square off against one of these guys.
Finally, thank you, Rattrap, for making this thread. *thumbs up!*

Note to those who have characters fighting each other:
If no one else is involved in the battle, you're free to write the portions of it that don't involve anyone else up in a single post, fanfic style, and post that/start a thread with it, and then just switch to the one-post-per-character method when other players become involved.
Other things that players may not be aware of: * DZ-centric fanfic that fits into our continuity can get declared canon if the players of all characters involved consent to it. Please let us know, though, so we can put a formal link to it.
* DZ-based AIM RP scenes can also be logged and posted as canon RP. Same for LJ-base.
* If something breaks our rating, it cannot be posted or linked from here, but it can be posted in the LJ comm with a note that it is still happened.
* Remember that future players of Canon characters have the right to retcon romantic relationships, including ones that have portions posted elsewhere but have been declared canon.

Omega Supreme and Omega Supreme-3: Omega Supreme-3 will, the moment he hears about Xaaron-1 being out in the desert, head over there, assuming that Xaaron-1 has Hook-3 or knows where Hook-3 is. Omega Supreme-1 will, doubtless, be called into fight Omega Supreme-3. I don't really want to write this. More on how I'll handle it later.
Xaaron-1: He's using himself as bait in the desert.
Xaaron-3: He's catatonic. If someone evil wants to find and hassle him, that may be possible, but he's catatonic and not much fun.
Spinister-1: He's somewhere. Doing something. Probably in the desert. Might be a background combatant.
Spinister-3: Having a sniper-pile on the East Coast. Whoops.
Scourge-1 and Scourge-3: Doing something, somewhere. I have no idea, really. Want one of them somewhere? Pitch an idea to me.
Bambi-1: Having exciting adventures with Motormaster and thereby not involved in DZ-3 at all.
Bambi-3: Doing whatever Holi-3 tells her.
Skyblast-1: Probably being a background combatant in the desert.
Skyblast-3: East Coast.

We-el, my characters all will be pretty active all around, esp. once I get back from FoS on Sunday evening.
Shockwave: Will be radio traffic only until after FoS. At that point he will become very visible.
Misfire: Heading out to the desert w/ Needlenose. He will likely fade into background once things get hot and heavy. However, he has much potential for amusement, so if anyone wants to play with him, let me know.
Botanica: Acting division head, also playing Creature Lurking Beneath the Sands at the moment. Active participant.
Botanica-3: Crazy Plant Lady is a major wild card which can hamper/hurt both sides. She currently has four arms full of squirming Rattrap. Active participant.
Mirage: Currently active, and in the sniper pile with Spinister-3. After Swerve-3's rescue, he may fade back except for post-in/post-out sniping shots.
Mirage-3: Active, will remain active, and currently wondering what that noise was he just heard.

Shortround-1: Hiding. Claiming the need to check supplies as the reason
Shortround-3: Mainly background, although I might have him run stupidly into a fight
Slag-1: Main. And probably going to end up trying to cause as much chaos as he can
Slag-3: Might be background or main depending on what happens, even though I see him as being too lazy to actually do anything until bad stuff starts going down
Stalker-1: He's somehow appeared just to help out Needlenose's group, but he'll be also depending on the case, though I will need to see about him doing some special communication stuff perhaps
Claw Jaw-1 is off... Somewhere. Yeah. Unless the fighting somehow comes to the middle of the ocean, he won't be involved

Hook-1 is almost certainly not involved, because I have far been doing far too many Hook-threads lately.
Pee-Dee-1 is definitely involved on the East Coast.
Shrapnel-1 isn't involved. Shrapnel-3 isn't in this universe. Motormaster-1 isn't involved. Motormaster-3 isn't in this universe. (He probably had a lucky break with most of the Autobots-3 going universe-hopping, honestly.)
Everyone else is up in the air. Slingshot-3 almost certainly will get involved later on.

Thundercracker: Active
Thundercracker-3: Not involved (still too compromised by his captivity to fight)
Bluestreak: Active
Bluestreak-3: Inactive unless someone wants to pick a fight with the moody little Datsun
Gizmo: Not involved
Gizmo-3: Inactive (will most likely panic and bolt on the battlefield -- he's as jittery as his counterpart in a combat situation)

Makeshift-1: Probably going to end up secondary, unless anyone wants to play with him.
Makeshift-3: No in the universe.
Runamuck-1: Main, once he wakes up.
Runamuck-3: Secondary unless something happens.
Blackout-1: Secondary. If any small bad guys need a lift to the desert, you're welcome to say Blackout dropped you off.
Blackout-3: Secondary. Ditto on the transport note for small good guys. Either Blackout can be called on for interaction if desired, just PM requests to Makeshift.

Skid-Z is my only, so main if this battle involves him (sees no reason why it shouldn't, so I count him present and ready).
Certainly NOT out in a DESERT unless command specifically calls for him.... (...can bots be without one of the three divisions?)

Skyfire-1: loitering high, high above the desert until needed. Skyfire-3: ferrying bad guys out to the desert.
Dead End-1: at the East Coast trap, being background. Dead End-3: guarding Starscream-3, wherever he is.
Duskwing-1: 'helping' in the desert Duskwing-3: still undecided. Probably background where needed most.
Hellbender: probably underground East Coast. Midnight-3: Desert.
