It would have been interesting to have seen Cyclonus under the command of the movie Galvatron before he went crazy, though I'm thinking that would have been more boring then what we got. Vang makes a good point about Cyclonus not being very effective without Galvatron. What was always great about Cyclonus was that because Galvatron went crazy he got the huge leadership role that he did in the G1 toon. I think if Galvatron did not got loopy and was just a Megatron 2.0 Cyclonus role would have greatly diminished which would have been very unfortunate. Despite the mixed reaction among fans to season 3 I liked how they tried to mix it up with a character like Cyclonus who really got to shine wile the leader get's the more backseat role (same with how UM and Rodimus). To bring it back to your original point wile Cyclonus is an outstanding general and leader he's kinda like Shockwave in the sense that he's not the full and fleshed out big picture person (ruling the galaxy and so forth). He's the military commander who job it is to take the orders he's given and command troops on the battlefield. Without Galvatron or a higher power to be there he's still kinda lost in that respect.
