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.

Iron squints his eyes.
(Maybe they have fled. I should regroup with Cauldron to scout out further before moving the treasure.)
He goes up towards the friendly set of gunshots came from, confident she's okay.

You ever have something work, then not even five seconds later have it not work, even though nothing has changed? Not talking about laptop, in case anyone thought so.

Cauldron is...quietly freaking out
“You’re shot. And they’ve noticed us. They are blocking the only path out”

Oh hey. GM was expecting you.

Iron places a hoof on Cauldron, empathetic over her current emotional state.
"It is alright. They may know we are here, but we still have the cover of darkness for most of our path. We should scout ahead for any traces of enemies until the next chokepoint we can find. Would you do that for me, since you are the more agile and sneaky of us?"
I think I'll make the story stop for today. Have to get up early. Night.

He was? Whoops. I was just waiting around for him, playing vidya and watching the thread in the meantime.

Remember, Silver Sword. When GM does the posting, you post at him back.
Else he can't be sure of your availability.

Now that's one miffed Twiggles
Iron understands her worry further.
"We should change positions," he whispers to Cauldron. "I think they will reveal their position or at least conceal our movements if I start throwing rocks at random as we move."
Picking up a bunch of rocks, he looks at the zebra, waiting for a confirmation or rebuttal to his idea.

Aww, is Dark Star Kill again?
>>101963
Wow. What an overall shitty situation you just stumbled into. Was it the defense's handiwork?
Iron hums.
"Perhaps we can advance from cover to cover without getting shot at. I have not seen any lights pointing this way and it would throw off the opponent's strategy," he whispers to the stressed zebra. "The rocks would cause them to panic a bit and look around in order to see if we advanced at where the noise would sound."

Iron ponders a bit, looking at the stream to gauge if he would be visible to others while underwater.

The water itself is perfectly clear, and the moment any pony shines a light in it, whatever is in line of sight will be seen. The water has the advantage of being off to the side, and thus not in the normal area to aim a light. If some pony aimed a light across the ground, areas of the water nearer the surface, and further away from the source could be illuminated. Water that is deeper, and closer to the edge where the light is coming from are safer

Iron points the stream to her partner in crime.
"Perhaps we can use the stream to pass through and surprise attack them."

"Can you swim that far?
The area in the center of the path does not have a stream, as naturally the change in elevation would be too much for the flow of water to overcome. The stream exists on the ends of the trail, near the bridge, and near the treasure chamber. It seems to disappear through a path underground for part of its distance

Iron puffs his chest.
"Of course I can!" with my endurance feat
He peers over to the path towards entering the stream.
"Do you think we can reach it without being spotted?"

"I believe the answer is a resounding no by your reaction."
Iron points towards the stream closer to the bandits.
"The one in front of us should lead us to the enemy."

Iron huffs.

Iron purses his lips, looking at the ground for a bit.
"So we need them to regain enough confidence to try and push further into the temple unless we want to risk unwanted damage..."
Looking at the walls, the avalanche idea sounds rather tempting.

“Maybe?”
The decline in the trail is not steep enough for gravity to cause much damage. There are some nooks and crannies along the walls, as the walls are natural and uneven. The trail itself is a little uneven. However, it’s really not clear that the discrepancies in the walls are large enough to hide, especially for a giant pony like Iron

Let's give it a shot. Also, hoping that your next day is better than you current one.
Iron stares at the walls.
"Perhaps we can create some cover. Try to stand at a safe distance and cover me from any bandits that could try to shoot me."
With that, Iron willingly leaves cover for a wall down the incline to cause a small avalanche of fresh cover.

In order to ensure that at least some of the debris fall on the side where the bandits can shoot at us, Iron should try to advance as much as possible and cause debris to fall where he wants cover, so moving forwards and then bucking the wall for cover increases the odds of favorable cover.
