Yes, this is ANOTHER one! Features Buzzclaw, and the Resistance. Guest star Lio Convoy, of course, since it's the last day to sign up for the Club Membership and get him as the freebie.

There's currently no estimate for when it will be completed, but it's something that is being worked on and when the convention fervor is over will push its way towards the top of the priority list.

I'm gonna be sarcastic for a moment and I hope it doesn't come off too mean spirited:
"Ahem- Anyone want an over-under on say 2017 for the fiction section happening?"
Thank you, this has been my exceedingly sarcastic comment of the day.
-ZacWilliam, just the fiction section mind you, if you want a full on decent modern website betting starts at 2025 I think.
Ever wonder about the speed of Turbofoxes?
Or the proverbial ailerons of Titanium Moosebots?
*Visit the one and only Cybertronic Bestiary.
For a mechazoologic tour of the mechanimals of Cybertron.

SNAP, another one?!!! 
That's the fastest the Club's ever posted more than one prose story at a time in a LONG time!
Don't get me wrong, this is GREAT news, as they're finally producing more fiction with more meat to it again since their comic issues have always been so restrained (understandably so, though).

I think the concept of being educated and being able to educate is something that more people need more of in their lives.
No, we don't all know everything but we should spread and share that what we do know.
If I'm consistently misspelling a word, I would want and expect people to correct me as should I imagine all decent people who know the value of good literacy.
Its just arrogant laziness to know you're spelling a word incorrectly and not correct yourself or ignore the advice when people do tell you how to spell a word correctly.

I assume you mean that in 2025 we will have a website modern-circa-2015.

Well, that was better than the previous one, by far.
Ended pretty abruptly, though. I thought it hadn't downloaded properly at first.

I kind of feel like Broken Windshields was written somewhat in Lio Convoy's voice, even though it wasn't first-person.
Lio Convoy is a chronic sesquipedalian, and Buzzclaw... isn't.

It isn't that, it just felt a lot tighter. Even the occasional digression didn't have the same pointless feeling a lot of the lists and so forth in "Broken Windshields" did - it was either world-building or character-building, rather than the "hey, remember all these guys?" the earlier story indulged in.I kind of feel like Broken Windshields was written somewhat in Lio Convoy's voice, even though it wasn't first-person.
I was left wondering a bit "...why her?", actually. Did she have anything in common (physical descriptions/illustration notwithstanding) with her "Rage of the Dinobots" incarnation, or is this just to help justify the inevitable Ripclaw repaint that the club'll be doing either at Botcon or in the next Club Sub, since she's low-hanging fruit there?Also, Ser-Ket is now an Uprising character, and this is awesome.

She's a similar kind of body type to Buzzclaw. I figured it worked.

okay so all the Micromaster's inside are based off various repaints of Armada Knock Out, Wreckage, and Bonecrusher.
There's normal colors, X-Dimmension colors, and either Ultimate or the Night Watch recolors.
And the black and purple Micromaster is probably Blackjack.
Also, thank goodness this gets rid of that "Galen Kord" nonsense.

I'm pretty sure the Air Defense Team was in there.There's normal colors, X-Dimmension colors, and either Ultimate or the Night Watch recolors.
Yes I know it's broken. It's an HTTPS thing and I haven't gotten around to dealing with it yet.
