"That is only if they discover the trade, which can all take place in the woods, which they don't enter. Plus, this isn't funding a modern war capable nation. This is helping a small nation that does not engage in gruella warfare. It should go under the radar."

>>139999
Best Pony

"How will we trade with these New Marelanders?" He asks

>>140000
Best pony!

"I can set up a meeting at the border, at which point, you will make your demands of trade and I will pressure them to agree, but they will likely need at least the scouting information of your immediate area, the mine, the woods, the railway, things like that."

>>140002
"Alright... Waabishki has faith in you, and I will take a risk as well."

>>140003
"Glad to hear it."

>>140004
"Uh, should we stay here or go into the coach?" The doctor asks

>>140005
"Hmm... I think we best stay here and work out our strategy should things go south."

>>140006
"Uh, okay. What shall we do then?"

>>140007
"We need to regroup, confirm we are not changelings, and then we need to lay low. Once we lose any pursuers, we can then get another ride back home."

>>140008
"But what about whoever is pursuing us?" He asks

>>140009
"We will need to avoid killing pursuers, but we also need to make sure we don't have them realize where we have actually come from, so they don't go around looking for your home. If all goes well, they will just believe the residents of the city are the ones being troublesome."

>>140010
"Maybe... I would like to avoid my home while I am here. To avoid anything being associated with my family."

>>140011
"You might want to make up some new names then."

>>140012
"Uh... well we'll still need somewhere to group at, or to stay at while we stay a while. Exploratory surgery or tests could take a while. And maybe you could stay at the hospital, but maybe not."

>>139935
"Yes Sir."

And now Silver begins the task of distracting the machine gun.

>>139280
A couple more customers come in, mostly nothing out of the ordinary.

>>140015
Amber looks to see if they need any help and if so she goes to assist.

>>140015
I don't suppose there are other streets himself and his rifleponies can take to get around the church?

>>140016
Some stallion, who for some reason seems to like Amber. There's also a mare wearing an overly thick sweater who seems to start with Amber but quickly needs to be given to Guy instead because of her specific questions.

>>140017
There seems to be a lot behind the church, with the church itself having a small parking area and wooden fenced in area. Then there is a minor street that is not paved, and hosts single family homes.

>>140018
"Good afternoon mister, what can I do for you today?" she asks cheerfully.

>>140019
"Yeah, I need a dress for my daughter's school dance. It's not until later in the Spring, but I want to surprise her with it."

>>140021
"Oh, she's 11 now. Well, she will be when I give her this dress. And when the dance happens in Spring."

>>140018
Silver leads the group through the minor street.

>>140023
And now it's a question of where Silver wants to attack from

>>140024
There's a specialized children's section. The stallion provides as much information he can about her dimensions. There are dresses in lavender, lime, pink, and of course many of mixed colors.

>>140026
"Blue. Definitely blue."

>>140025
Definitely the opposite end of the church from where the MG team is going to be set up.

>>140028
Unless Silver seeks more specific cover or concealment, he can move to attack

>>140027
"Oh, okay." She picks out a blue dress. "Do you think she would like this one?"

>>140030
"Well. maybe not that shade of blue."

>>140029
Cover would definitely be a help, though I'm unsure of the organization of the town in this area. Are there any stone or brick fences or walls they can usex

>>140032
There is a stone fence at the edge of the church lot, though the wall is very low - 3 feet - and can only provide so much cover from shots above. Of course being very close to the church itself prevents them from getting a hot downwards, but you'd have to get that far, and it's possible to stay close to the buildings between the fire station and the church so as to avoid being in line of sight.

>>140033
"Hmmm...."

There are a surprisingly high number of blue dresses for fillies there

>>140035
He blinks, and perhaps in this moment Amber remembers she is dealing with a male

"Uh...."

>>140037
The dress corresponding to Amber's suggestion has a crisscross pattern of black and dark lines

"Lagoons in far off lakes.... I like that."

>>140039
He takes a closer look at the dress, slowly becoming mesmerized by waves of blue that bob up and down against a white upper portion, and black lines that intersect and then bounce back again on the bottom

"Yes... This may do."

>>140034
Do any of the soldiers have grenades?

>>140041
He takes the item, places it on the counter, and pays cash for it. Sadly, it's that same currency as earlier. At least it's a bluish color on these bills.

>>140042
Yes, most have hoof grenades, and one rifle may shoot rifle grenades

>>140043
Silver directs them to get into cover, and points to where the MG nest is for the rifle grenade to be shot in.

>>140044
Upon closer inspection, Amber actually gets an answer to this question. The bills are denominated 20 bits, rather than the 50 she saw earlier

>>140045
Alright, ponies in position, presumably hiding close to the edge of the residence next to the church.

>>140046
Silver gets into position, and gives the signal to the grenadier.

>>140047
And... fire
