Transformers: Armada Season 1 Episode 1

First Encounter (1)

The episode opens in space, with our narrator explaining the history of the race called ""Transformers"" in brief. After a short intro, the masculine narrator says that the race settled, a planet that was eventually called Cybertron. A war broke out between the Autobots and Decepticons, over a race of what are called ""Smart Tools"", Mini-Cons. The war escalated to a stalemate, and both the Autobots and Decepticons both finally agreed that the war was too costly, and sent all the Mini-Cons away in a large Green Vessel, very reminscent of the Ark from Generation 1. This ""Ark"" travelled through space for a great deal of time, and landed on a primatvie planet after a damaging collision with its moon. The Mini-Cons laid dormant in this ""ship"" for over a million years, until today, where our story begins.
