RPG Summary
Ships go missing everyday, in the galactic reaches far from Cybertron. Some of them are destroyed or captured by pirates. Some suffer from malfunctions or the occasional mutiny. Some of them are just running a little late. Some fall into wormholes and are never heard from again...
When the unsuspecting crew of a Maximal colony ship was ambushed by a Predacon battlecruiser, few of them expected to survive. Fewer still expected the form their salvation would take. On the other side of the wormhole, in the heart of an asteroid field, was a world bursting with life and dangers, home and/or prison to ruined civilizations, fanatical cults, space pirates and worse. With both ships crashed and either side now stranded, the two factions will band together and put aside their differences to survive... Or not. Welcome to the Rock.
In Depth
The Maximals of the Argos and the Predacons of the Kismet duke it out for survival on an alien planetoid.

The Slavers
- Virtue and Vice, twins, dove and vulture respectively. The loving velvet glove and sadistic iron fist of the Enclave. Mind-control, telepathy and healing abilities.

- Blackguard, a ruthless slaver with thespian pretentions. Falcon beast warrior. Cowardly, with a penchant for challenging foes to a swordfight, then shooting them in the back. Also betrayed the Enclave, but joined Captain Axle's crew as a 'reformed' Maximal.
- Codex, mercenary, plain and simple. Modeless, with only a rudimentary personality. Body is entirely modular, with a storehouse of spare parts and alternating weapons choices.
- Kilobyte, hacker. Transmetal rilobite. Current carrier and handler of the sentient computer virus Abacus.
- Abacus, sentient computer virus with a weak sense of humour. Characteristic laugh: "Ha. Ha. Ha."
