A D&D RP game based on My Little Pony, and the Hearts of Iron 4 mod Equestria at War, featuring an Equestria where the Princesses have been deposed, and Equestria is split between Changelings and a former Equestrian colony
Thus far, Dark Star has joined the fascist faction, and is taking on a job to assemble a team to stop a Communist cell. Onyx is no longer being detained, Ash has sort of joined a nunnery, Iron has joined the Waterside gang as a loanshark, Brie is still being edgy, and a new unicorn has joined. All are ready to reconnoiter the Docks.

>>70440It's one hell of a lot smaller
But I really shouldn't intrude on your planning
>>70438we should definitely use the propane
>>70443How could you even set off the cannister? I'm pretty sure you need an igniter, and I sure don't know who has one without blowing their cover or themselves up, so I believe an ambush is better.
>>70444i could shoot it. maybe we could get brie to hide it close to one of the advisers?
It's so hard to not just say things
>>70446Well, I'm not going to get any better at thinking or perceiving information without some sleep, so I'll close up for today. Night.
Back-reading.
Gosh, I'm lost...
>>70450If I had to sum this up. We got some guards killed on the second floor. I had a plan about throwing a table over the gangway to the target mare but was foiled by the narrow corridor leading to it. Spark found some poison and explosives on the bathroom on the first floor. You and Onyx did not even arrive at the building where the targets are currently located. Current ideas of assassination are to ambush one of the targets in the bathroom through Dark Star or Spark's charisma, bluff and maybe seduce checks.
>>70451The plan is not set in stone and can be changed to simple poisoning through vodka and poison or maybe throw the cannister and hope it blows up. If we had Brie, this would be oh so easier.
>>70451I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I'm not exactly sure what the main objective of the mission was..
>>70453If I understand right, we must kill the two targets that Iron, Dark Star and Spark boi saw during the war announcement, maybe disrupt the event with some police intervention. I may be wrong.
>>70453To stop the communists from enacting their "plan," which during the night is found to involve both shipments of guns and two foreign special forces agents as advisers
>>70454>>70455Hmmmmm.
Here's a question. Were there any other children present in the area? Not just the ones from the orphanage.
>>70456The only other ponies visible in the Union Hall area besides Ollie were the two stallions. If there are any children in the docks area, they are not readily visible
>>70457I guess I should have her move in to investigate. If they were keeping any kids kids at all there, she'd probably prefer to make sure they're all outside before bullets start flying.
>>70451>the target mare>>70456Can I get a second description of her?
Sorry if I come off as a bit daft. I'm just trying to get an understanding of what the party is trying to get done, and set my character's motivations to match. I can't just go setting thing in fire at random.
>>70458You may want to recall Ollie's statements in
>>70250 and
>>70024>>70459Your character actually has not seen the Advisers, nor has Blue Skies provided a description
>>70458Your character has moved up next to the liquids warehouse, described in part in
>>70355 >>70461Alright. I've got it now.
>>70461>>70462I'm going to go for a limb here and use the third eye I have to guess that everyone is waiting for someone to post to start the session.
Here's hoping Brie is here. I've got about an hour before I need to go eat, but I'm ready now.
>>70461I guess I'll have her proceed into the warehouse then.
>>70467She can see a number of stacks of barrels. Those closest to the walls appear to be unmarked wooden barrels. In the center is a giant stack of drums. Some are labelled "Aviation Gasoline 130 Octane Tetraethyllead," some are labeled "Leaded Gasoline" behind these barrels and drums you can see ponies are messing with wooden crates, a few being stacked. Ponies are coming in an out of a door on the left side of the building from where you are, past the wooden barrels. A pony looks at the three of you, but, seeing none of you are wearing police uniforms, stops caring and goes back to the crates
>>70468Sister Ash walks in slowly, wondering to herself just what the hell she agreed to when she took this mission...
"Th-those are quite a few flammables.." she mutters, still a bit nervous
>>70468How many ponies does she see altogether?
>>70470>>70469As she rounds around the hill of drums, she can see a sign above the door over to her left "No Steel Horse Shoes," and to her right is what is apparently a loading bay with an elevated platform. A truck is backing up into it, and a pony is behind it on the platform
"Backwards, keep going, keep going, Stop, STOP. That's the clutch, not the brake. Now pull the handbrake. The handbrake. It's to your right. Alright, good"
Another two ponies to her left come through the door carrying a long rectangular crate. There are 3 ponies visible, and presumably one in the truck

>>70471Do you think I can mingle with the advisors in-game without cocking up the mission aka making time run out for me and the other two peeps?
>>70473Hmmm.... Go ahead and try it. I can't imagine a conversation taking longer than what would be 5 minutes IRL anyways
>>70474Iron, deciding it is futile to attack at the moment, decides to go downstairs and meet up with the griffon advisor that was down the stairs, not before checking if his gauntlets were bloody or left a blood trail.
>>70475His gauntlet was indeed bloodied, although this could be cleaned off any of several ways.
The griffon is talking to a set of ponies who seem to be listening intently, telling of a time his platoon was cut off without supplies in Black Hollow. He is drinking what seems to be bottled beer.
>>70471Sister Ash decides to investigate further into the building, so long as nobody's suspicious.
>>70476Iron, not wanting to stain anyone's clothes with blood at the moment, decides to seek the bathroom on the first floor.
>>70476>>70478Dark Star remembers his stab wound
>>70477They already have a stack of crates set up behind the drums. There are some more drums and barrels along the other walls, and still another door on the far end opposite from which she came. The ponies' focus seems to be on placing crates inside of this building rather than on filling the trucks at the moment
>>70478That'll work
>>70479What do?
>>70481trys to slip out of the crowd and slips over to the vodka station
>>70481Iron checks the room for any sinks and
maybe mirrors in order to use water to scrub off the wound and if there is blood anywhere else on his body.
>>70481Where did Blue go off to? I know Onyx is outside the building.
>>70482It appears that the party was BYOB, with no refreshments being served
>>70483Both are possible. There is a little blood on the hide
>>70484"Boo"
She's right behind you. For now.
>>70485Iron, assured that he can clean himself, proceeds to do so with some water and scrubbing.
>>70485*Jumps with all four hooves leaving the ground*
"M-meep..!"
>>70485>BYOBUgh. You'd think commies would try barely to keep the illusion of hospitality. Dirty hypocrites, the lot of them.
>>70487She gives off a malign laugh. "I've got more and better surprises than that. Anyways, it looks like these are crates full of illegal arms they are bringing in"
As she speaks, a second two-and-a-half-ton truck backs into the loading bay
>>70486The steel gauntlets are wiped clean. The worst of the blood can be removed from the hide, although it looks like there will be a stain that won't come off easily
>>70488They are on a time crunch to set up and then leave. At least they will provide the guns for the fun later
>>70485Sister Ash shivers, clutching her broom.
"S-so it seems.. but there are so many ponies here too.."
>>70489Iron shrugs and proceeds to scrub his hide to clean as much as possible from the hide. At least it won't degrade his armor.
>>70490"There are a few, mostly they are on the move. They want to clear out a ship in the harbor before a routine patrol comes by."
>>70491It is as clean as it will get. A stain on it won't look that out of place with his "rustic" appearance anyways.
