So, part of my inspiration for the setting of Lightspeed Legacies came from a short story I read awhile ago.

Basically, when Humanity invents FTL travel and takes to the stars, they find it empty. No other aliens, not even a whole lot of other habitable planets.

Of course, the massive advances in science allow for extreme genetic therapy, so the humans genetically modify some animals to be as smart as they are, and let them loose on some terraformed planets.

Humans are essentially the Precursors.

The Transformers just... don't fit into that, unless they're Human made.
