After deducing that the new Rogues are building a time machine, and tracking down the final piece needed inside a government lab, Barry (Grant Gustin) and Pied Piper (Andy Mientus) recruit their own gang of Rogues to steal it first and keep it out of the villains hands. "Rogues of War" offers the return of several characters with two sets of teams working, although the inevitable betrayal (and the person responsible) is far, far too easy to see coming. The episode is also notable for several Gotham City references including the unmasking of the evil speedster as a Batwoman (Javicia Leslie) from the future in a reveal that lacks the pop the writers where intending.
Shoehorning the lead character of the weakest of the Arrowverse shows, as a baddie no less, has me hoping this arc is short lived and not a storyline that will drag out over the full season. Despite the bummer of a reveal, there are some fun individual moment such as the flirtatious moments between the Hotness (Max Adler) and the Fiddler (Magda Apanowicz). The will they won't they of Chester (Brandon McKnight) and Allegra (Kayla Compton) unfortunately gets several minutes of time as well as does the exploration of Danielle Panabaker's new character.
