The new Transformers Contact Build is for the first of the Protectobots: Blades. This is unofficial, fan-made content using the Transformers Essence20 rpg by Renegade Games Studios. If you enjoy this content, please help support my friend Owen , whose medical bills continue to afflict him from his 10-year battle with cancer. BLADES " War's a dirty game - and I'm a dirty player !" Blades will never be the Autobot poster child. He's a dirty, underhanded street brawler at heart and proud of it. The fact that his alternate mode and function as air support can keep him at a distance from combat infuriates him. Blades would rather use his rotors to gut a Decepticon from antenna to tailpipe than to fly. When he fights, he wants to feel his enemies' fuel spraying across his steel skin. Blades does his job and does it darn well, but if there's a way to get his hands dirty in the process, you can bet your processor he'll find it. Influences Gestalt Member, Hunte...

This build is the first gestalt combiner Contact Build: Here is the combined form of the Aerialbots: Superion. The Autobots try not to rely on the power of their Combiners, as it places more than one Autobot in danger of severe injury in battle. Rather, whenever they are faced with the mounting power of a Decepticon combiner, the Autobot try to call on the power of the guardian Omega Supreme; who is more than willing to test their mettle against a Con combiner. Otherwise, the Autobots tend to rely on the awesome physical power of the Dinobots to fight off enemy combiners. The Aerialbots are also a  special case, as they form the bulk of the Autobot air force. So few Autobots have the ability to fly or convert into a flying vehicle. This makes the Aerialbots invaluable to the Autobot cause and to help defend the skies against the aerial superiority held by the Decepticons. Converting from five capable warriors into one giant bot makes them too big a target and helps focus the enemy ...

Here is the final Aerielbot build: Slingshot. This is unofficial, fan made content using the Transformers Essence20 rpg by Renegade Games Studios. Please help contribute to my friend Own and his fight again the American Health Care system ! SLINGSHOT " I'm even better than I think ." Slingshot is a member of the Autobots' air support sub-group, the Aerialbots. He functions as the team's ground support unit, a role which the other Aerialbots would say they have no need for. Whether that statement rings true or not doesn't matter, not so long as the team are able to distance themselves from Slingshot as long as feasibly possible. Slingshot is not a 'bot that's easy to like. He is extremely egotistical and arrogant, bragging constantly over even the most trivial things. It could be that his brash attitude is a cover to try and hide his own feelings of inadequacy: Slingshot is the slowest of the Aerialbots and has an unorthodox method of flying that takes...

The contact build for today is the Aerialbot leader: Silverbolt. This is unofficial, fan-made  content using the Transformers Essence20 rpg by Renegade Games Studios. If you are reading this, please comment and share, and leave some money for my friend Owen to help him pay for his medical treatments  from fighting cancer . SILVERBOLT " Don't look down, look straight ahead ." Silverbolt's character is defined by his extreme fear of heights and by his refusal to bow to it. He constantly struggles to project the image of a brave, determined soldier to hide his fear from others. Optimus Prime named him leader of the Aerialbots in the hopes that worrying about them would give him something else to focus on besides his own phobia. This has proven true and, not surprisingly, the mature, responsible Silverbolt makes an excellent commander. Influences Gestalt Member, Titanspark: Silverbolt stands taller than the other Aerialbots, symbolizing his commanding presence. Origin See...

The new contact build is for the Aerialbot Fireflight. This is unofficial, fan-made content using the Transformers Essence20  rpg by Renegade Games Studios. If you enjoy this content, please help support my friend Owen with paying his medical bills from fighting cancer. FIREFLIGHT ” When I’m flying,no enemy is safe – nor friend .” Fireflight combines a childlike sense of wonder with the soul of a daydreamer, resulting, unfortunately, in one major menace to airborne navigation. Near collisions and crashes come fast and frequent when he's around. If Aerialbots had to be certified to take to the air, he'd have been grounded for life long ago. Fireflight means well and has a good heart, he just can't help losing himself in the beauty of the world when seen from the sky. It's hard for his teammates to get too mad at someone so filled with wonder and innocence, but at the same time it's also hard to fly next to someone who's never paying any attention to where he...

By request, this is the Contact build for the Aerialbot Strategist: Skydive . If you enjoy these articles, please help support my friend Owen with paying his medical bills from fighting cancer , because the American Health Cares system sucks! SKYDIVE “ Only by studying the past can we win the present. ” Skydive, it has been said, would rather read about an aerial battle than take part in one. He's the Aerialbots' resident bookworm and is fascinated by the history and science behind aerial warfare. Within the limits of his design, he's capable of duplicating the flight patterns of anything he sees. His knowledge of aerial warfare and tactics is unmatched. Skydive is probably the most skilled Autobot flier in existence. All of that, and you're more likely to find him secluded in a cozy library than actually in the sky. He's simply too modest and bookish to realize how smart and skilled he really is. Thankfully the rest of the Autobots definitely do. Influences Gestalt...
