Brought to us by fellow board member Shauyaun, we have news that the smartphone game Earth Wars is about to have a not-so-insignificant update! A beta with a new theme is being released alongside new bots Drift and what appears to be a G1 version of Barricade - likely in a tie-in with The Last Knight - as well as Optimus Prime in his G2 Laser/Titans Return body. How the latter part will play out isn't quite clear especially as the game has so far not given any new looks to pre-existing characters, but check out the images below - taken by player JGEORG5 - and keep your optics to Seibertron for any more news on these developments!

And some people thought TLK Barricade was generic.

Funnily enough this does seem to share a lot in common with the TLK deluxe. Hood chest, most of the car top hanging off his back like kibble, doors on his arms, the rest of him becoming the legs, his head being a faceplated dealio rather than the actual mouth he had in 2007... no idea where the head design came from though. Looks like a motorcycle helmet crossed with a baseball cap.

The TLK Deluxe doesn't have the doors on his arms. They're connected to the car roof and fold inwards into the backpack.

Looks to be the previous Prowl/Streak/Smokescreen mold with a bobby helmet.
[Edit:] Has anyone noticed the orange Rook-looking guy that was on both combiner-themed loading screens?

I just realised these line-ups represent part of each faction's cast in TLK. Megatron has Barricade, a guy called Onslaught and a dragon; while Optimus has Drift, Grimlock and a guy called Hot Rod. Uh, Rodimus. Uh... it counts!
Though then you've also got two other guys in there I can barely make out. I think that's Bludgeon's tank barrel peeking out under Megs and Onslaught, and is that Bumblebee in the background between Rodimus' legs?

Niiiice me get some G2 in EW finally but it will be interesting to see how they handle Laser OP in-game is he gonna be a variant of Prime or a completely new bot 
but that will be awesome 
and they'll probably do a reskin of him into Octane. also YAAAASSSS Drift and Barricade I need these i'm thinking Blurr will be a Reskin of Drift just like the toy was a Repaint/ Retool of him back in Generations 2010. but seriously when are Kup and Snapdragon coming

I'm still waiting for Straxus to become an available character. Why go to the trouble of creating a model and only use it for events?

He'll be a Leaderboard prize first (guessing in 2 weeks) and then eventually he'll rotate into the crystal line up.
That's the standard practice.

Bah-weep-graaaaagnah wheep nini bong!
The Rust Renegades set out on a mission to find Slog. Fight to find out if they succeed and earn up to TRIPLE XP!
Out Of Control
Accustomed to Slog’s wanderings, the Autobots weren’t surprised when they heard Slog may be stuck somewhere in the Rust Desert. Clumsy Dinobot!
But the Rust Renegades aren’t so keen about Slog’s trespassing and launch their own mission to intervene.
Finding Slog won’t be an easy task… especially with Decepticon activity in the area!
Start Date: 12/05/2017 11:00 UTC
End Date: 15/05/2017 11:00 UTC
Prestiges Allowed: 25
Bonus Experience: Earn up to TRIPLE XP in Event Battle Zones!
How to Participate?
Event Prizes
New Characters
Get your first look at Dinobot Slog and ruthless Decepticon dictator Straxus!
Despite his plodding, lumbering gait and bulldozer-like approach to anything in his way, Slog is a gentle and even shy 'bot at heart. But conscious of his bellicose fellow Dinobots, and wary of their scorn, he keeps his sensitive side hidden.
Slog's seismic footfalls have been known to cause inadvertent landslides, which sometimes bury Slog and anyone nearby, making others dismiss him as clumsy and accident prone.
Of all the dictators in the Decepticon ranks (and there are a few!) Straxus is among the worst.
A brutal powerhouse, his word is law, and Straxus will go to any lengths to enforce his policies. Unfortunately, the law according to Straxus can change on a whim, and if you do run afoul of him, don't bother appealing for mercy - he has none. And the sentence is always a short, sharp blow from his battle axe.
Seismic Charge - Target a wall with a resonating seismic charge. The explosion dealsdamage for each wall within the radius, and quadruple damage to walls.
What's New
Experience 360 degree camera rotation during replays and view the remaining battle attempts of your alliance during a war. Our latest update rolls out to players next week!
Twitch
It’s time to take SLOG and STRAXUS into battle! Tune in LIVE on Thursday 11th May@ 4pm UTC to see the new bots in action.

It's just their way of offering up a solution to time-trap bases.
HQ15 bases though ... you're still going to need a 4*. So the strong get stronger.

A week earlier than I said.
Question remains ... will it be a leaderboard event or a crystal event with the chance to get Slog/Straxus.
Neither are major characters and a lot of people are over leaderboard events these days so it'll be interesting to see which way the Apes go.

Arggggh I'm more than a little pissed that THIS Event isn't the one where you get Slog(Sludge) or Straxus 
but I have a feeling when they come Slogs gonna help me a lot when I try to Raid higher level Bases and with me that usually ends with a Crippling defeat but his ability looks like it can Wreck walls easy!

If its the event type where you earn crystals and that could net you a 2-4* character ... then perhaps THIS will be the event where I finally get a 4* character from the character event.
Most likely not though.

We interrupt this Earth Wars event update to also bring you a new trailer for the game, featuring Bruticus, Optimus Maximus, and the Dinobots! Check it out, then continue on to your regularly scheduled event update.
Bah-weep-graaaaagnah wheep nini bong!
Will Slog succumb to the cerebro-shell and turn on his friends? And will Straxus succeed in overthrowing Megatron? Find out this weekend and fight in the event for a chance to win a 3 or 4-Star Slog or Straxus!
Double-Crossed
Megatron and the other Decepticons have arrived at the abandoned Decepticonoutpost where preparations for Slog’s betrayal are nearly complete!
Meanwhile, the Dinobots are on their way to rescue Slog!
With so much on the line, the question on everyone's mind is: What (if anything) is going on inside Slog's head, and will it ruin everyone’s plans?

Moonbase
Thanks to Bombshell, Straxus' secret plans for the Decepticon Moonbase have been unveiled! And Megatron is keen to recover whatever lies in that forgotten base, no matter the cost.
But with the Autobots in the know, will they be able to react in time? Or will Straxus' secret provide Megatron with the advantage he seeks?

Experienced fighters who are ready for battle, Kup and Dead End arrive in Transformers: Earth Wars next week! Get your first look at the new bots with their community voted ability Orbital Bounce!
Kup has been there, done that, got the T-shirt. There's almost nothing this veteran warhorse hasn't seen or experienced - so when it comes to swapping stories his fellow Autobots don't even try to compete.
Gruff and grizzled, Kup is forever waxing nostalgic about this battle or that narrow escape. Even if only half of his stories are true, it's still a packed life he's lived. One thing's for sure - he's a born survivor.
Despite his dreary, fatalistic certainty that the big shutdown is all that awaits them, Dead End spends more time than any 'bot this side of Sunstreaker making sure he looks his bright shiny best.
The "best-looking wreck in the auto junkyard" as Stunticon boss Motormaster likes to say.
Nevertheless, Dead End still fights with grim and committed intensity, perhaps determined to take as many Autobots with him as possible.
Orbital Bounce - To battle! Teleport to a target location and gain 70% damage reductionand immunity to slows and stuns.

Although they did fix Sideswipe's head later on, and I'd say say Dead End's looks okay.
On another note, it looks like that unconfirmed edit on the Wiki was right about Dead End!

I stopped playing this game when I got kicked out of mu Alliance on a day I left my phone at home, and couldn't battle for ten hours one day at work. If you're not part of an alliance, it's virtually impossible to rank yourself up.

We’re excited to celebrate our ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY with you! Over the past 12 months 10 million players have engaged in the final fight for planet Earth. Bombshell has done some calculations and this amounts to…
130 MILLION CRYSTALS
opened in the Space Bridge!
280,000 ALLIANCES
forged to take on enemy forces!
9 TRILLION ENERGON
used to upgrade buildings and research bots!
513 MILLION BATTLES
fought against rival players!
75 BILLION SPARK
used to upgrade bot abilities!
13 TRILLION ALLOY
used to upgrade Defenses!
This wouldn't have been possible without you. Thank you for all of your support!
Haven't played in awhile? You've missed out on a lot.
We’ve seen Superion, Devastator, Optimus Maximus and Bruticus wreak havoc on the Battlefield, causing senseless destruction to anyone in their path.
Factions arrived allowing you to lead both the Autobots and Decepticons from a single account! You can now collect over 100 bots and build the perfect Squad!
Grimlock turned the tide of the battle on Earth after he accidentally brought Optimus Primal and Beast Wars Megatron through The Space Bridge!
However, the battle has only just begun. Laser Optimus, Armada Megatron, Drift and Barricade will be making their way through The Space Bridge next!
Take a look back at our favourite moments in Transformers: Earth Wars from the last year with Product Owner Chris and Game Designer Adam!

Another Chapter of the Multiverse Saga unveils with the clash between Drift and Barricade. Will honour prevail over mockery? Or can words be stronger than will?
Outlaws
Driven by honor and a desire to prove worthy to the Autobots cause, Drift agrees to dive into the unknown, hoping to stop the Decepticons from breaking the natural order of the Multiverse.
Fast in tongue and wheels, Barricade is one step ahead, already looking for Cybertronians willing to join Megatron and fulfill his lust for Earthly conquest.
What kind of lawless, chaotic universes awaits these two? And what kind of unthinkable powers can their potential recruits hold?

Renegade’s Crystal contains the chance to win a 2, 3 or 4-Star Drift or Barricade, 100 4-Star Shards, 100 3-Star Shards, Incendiary Barrage Mk 3 Battle Boost or Force Field Mk3 Battle Boost.
A warrior-born, Drift abandoned his former ruthless ways, exchanged his guns for swords, and became a crusader for justice – albeit his own brand of rough justice. Because of Drift’s shady past, his new Autobot allies are slow to trust him and despite his loner attitude.
Drift suffers in isolation, but never stops trying to prove his worth, and trustworthiness. His Great Sword draws on his own Spark energy.
Barricade has something of a motor-mouth, and whether it’s smashing through an Autobot roadblock or hunting down his quarry, he never misses a chance to taunt, criticize or demoralize his hapless victim(s).Even his fellow Decepticons, up to and including Megatron, aren’t safe from Barricade’s verbal barrage. But luckily for Barricade, Megatron understands the tactic is designed to
bait his enemies into rash and irrational behavior.

The Multiverse Saga continues with its penultimate entry, and Starscream has dispatched Hun-Gurrr to sabotage Barricade’s mission in an attempt to recruit new found Decepticons for his own ends!
Critical Mass
The Multiverse is vast and yet Drift & Barricade find themselves together, head to head, spiralling through time and space, on a mission to recruit allies for the battle on Earth!
Barricade has identified his first problem and if the old adage, ‘two heads are better than one’ rings true then he’s in trouble. Yes, Hun-Gurrr is along for the ride too, sent byStarscream to ensure Barricade’s failure. But Hun-Gurrr doesn’t appear to be enjoying the cross-dimensional travel….

Snarl and Hun-gurrr continue their mission on Quintessa.
With the danger passed their temporary truce fails. Their missions resume and Death seems inevitable, but who will be the first to fall?
Face to Face
Snarl and Hun-gurrr successfully repelled the seemingly endless waves of hungrySharkticons!
After narrowly avoiding a painful dismemberment and death, the odd duo appreciates each other a bit more. But orders are orders and they both must face their next goal: mission accomplishment at any cost!
After all, Quintessa is no place for friendship...

Who are the Quintessons?
Here's a great description from the Transformers Wiki to get you up to speed:
The Quintessons are a bizarre and ancient race, whose dark history and shadowy machinations are bound up with the history of the Transformers, with connections to both Primus and Unicron. They are known galaxy-wide as traders, entrepreneurs and businessmen, but their dealings are very rarely on the level, often laced with intrigue and betrayals.
They prefer subtle manipulation, scheming, and advanced technology over brute force, but if those don't work, they can fall back on the legion of deadly Sharkticons and Allicons at their command and a fleet of battle-ready spaceships as well. However, the Quintessons themselves have zero fighting abilities and are absolute cowards if they have nothing to hide behind. For example, they are seen to be powerless against a Sharkticon revolt.

The Sharkticons are a distant memory as the tide of battle has shifted to the survival of the fittest between these 2 metal gargantuan's.
Who will emerge victorious to claim a definitive victory? Their missions are in jeopardy and only the strongest will succeed on bringing its master the secrets of Quintessa.

Two formidable combatants; Snarl and Hun-gurrr join Transformers: Earth Wars this weekend!
Hun-Gurrr is a creature of appetites. One he fulfils by stuffing his twin mouths with monstrous amounts of energy, raw materials, and fallen Autobots. The other - his love of battle - he sates through wanton destruction and mayhem. As leader of the Terrorcons, he makes an adept military commander, though he tends to issue orders with a full mouth, making him difficult to understand.
Surly and uncommunicative, a loner by nature, Snarl is about as far from a team player as you can get. But in a group comprised of misfits and malcontents, he somehow fits right in. And though he follows orders (grudgingly), what keeps him in line is the promise of mortal combat — and lashings of it. Only the thrill of battle can truly elevate Snarl's spirits andbeing a Dinobot provides everything his heart desires.
Fire Frenzy - Attack with fierce strength hitting multiple targets in a line, setting enemy buildings on fire and dealing damage. This mode lasts 15 seconds

As leader of the Terrorcons, he makes an adept military commander, though he tends to issue orders with a full mouth, making him difficult to understand.
Surly and uncommunicative, a loner by nature, Snarl is about as far from a team player as you can get. But in a group comprised of misfits and malcontents, he somehow fits right in. And though he follows orders (grudgingly), what keeps him in line is the promise of mortal combat — and lashings of it. Only the thrill of battle can truly elevate Snarl's spirits andbeing a Dinobot provides everything his heart desires.
Fire Frenzy - Attack with fierce strength hitting multiple targets in a line, setting enemy buildings on fire and dealing damage. This mode lasts 15 seconds
Under Investigation
Some of the issues we've been investigating:
- We've had further reports regarding squads having 2 of the same bots in them.
- Reports are still coming in regarding bots attack speed when they are engaged in combat with Combiners and/or Laser Optimus Prime.
- We continue to investigate this and a fix will be incoming in an upcoming content push.
- This is being investigated further and we hope to have a resolution in an upcoming build.
- We've received some reports regarding players not receiving their top reward in events.
- Please note: You must start AND finish your current Battle within the event time in order for it to count towards your score. If you finish after the event has expired you will not get the Battle points.
These are just a few examples of the reports that we've received from you, and we continue to work hard to improve your experience with the game every day.

Under Investigation
- We have had reports that Combiners can charge out of the map when using Rush & Smash.
- To resolve this we have removed the ability to target bots with Rush & Smash, this should stop incidents like this from happening anymore.
- Further reports are being received regarding 2 of the same bots being in a single squad. This can cause the game to crash if you attempt to battle with them.
- We're still actively investigating this, but, for now, we would advise you to just remove one of the bots and not try to battle with both.
- We had a lot of reports regarding the quantity of Premium Character Crystalsthat were rewarded in the recent Leaderboard Event.
- This was just a display issue, and the correct amount of Premium Character Crystal will be rewarded when the event is over.
