Occupied Equestria - Into the Unknown

Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where the Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures because of their encounters with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestrian Southeast, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and corrupt creepy politicians threaten the city. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.

The long train ride to Bales is over, with Brie, Onyx, and Spark reaching their destination a little bruised but not dead or arrested. Before them lies a new and unfamiliar city and world, at the crossroads of Equestria's past and present, and also the Changeling Occupied Zone and East Equestria. In Baltimare, Dark Star prepares to set out on a mission to track down and arrest unfaithful and unreliable local law enforcement that have been leaking information to rebel forces. Silver may finally have a new toy he can use to clear the Catacombs of their undead presence. Iron, meanwhile, has drifted further into an temple in his search for a treasure sough by an archaeological expedition that was ambushed by bandits.

I wonder if Dark Star will be able to complete his quest to do... something I don't really know.

Well, at least I'm here! Anyways, if you wanted to continue, I believe Silver was going to go buy a newspaper from a stand. So you get the chance to use some of those newspaper article ideas you had.

Justice of the Peace was really bitchy when I met him today about why I had not come in earlier. Like no shit I didn’t do anything not on the calendar, because how would I know?

On the plus side, this book I am reading (in audiobook as I am driving) is really fascinating. It tells a long history of the diplomatic exchanges leading up to World War 2, and how it started.

I wonder what sort of cooky, wacky situations can you cook up with this newfound knowledge the audiobook will provide.
Coowacky is optional.

Well, I don't think anyone was seeking to play

Are extensive posts about meta issues like parts of the setting, characters, scenes, IRL history or what have you desired, or do they break up immersion and have whatever other adverse effects?

As for your question, I don't mind meta posts. It's always nice to have some extra background when you're in an unfamiliar setting.

If that's "hide," then no opposed roll because they are looking the other way.

I know this is late, but Listen checks are used to oppose Move silently rolls while hide rolls are opposed by spot checks.

Man, I sure hope I can roll again to at least have a satisfying ending later.
Iron nods back with all 5 pots of treasure on him.
"Let us start our trip back."
He looks at Cauldron.
"You should scout ahead for any dangers. If we need to fight, I should drop the pots for it."
With that, he makes sure to follow Cauldron at the maximum possible distance where Iron can see Cauldron walk ahead.
