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.

>>70703All glory to the dice gods!
>>70682Redclaw seems to trip over a bump in the wooden planks when he tries to maintain balance. He spreads his wings to try to glide down, but falls anyways into the water. He first looks back angrily at Iron, then looks worried, looks to the seawall, and ducks his head under the water
>>70707Am I in the water with him?
Fuck. I'd send a shark after him,if only I could see him...
Not a member of the game, just here to comment on how I think you guys broke through the bump limit again.
>>70701Sister Ash is no longer confident she's helped anyone so far, and decides to move past the building in hopes of finding Ollie or Blue or the party or anyone she recognizes.
>>70711That happens every so often. We'll slide in a bit.
You're welcome to join if you want.
>>70707Iron, not wanting to let his prey escape, decides to take off all of his armor and jump into the water after him. If he thinks he can escape he is very wrong.
>>70715*Accutally just the bear armor, wolf armor should be ok.
>>70714I would, if I wasn't completely lost as to what's going on in the story, or if I had the slightest idea on how to play any sort of D&D-style game
>>70718>Lost in what's going onYou send me both..
You're welcome to start anytime though.
>>70712>Move past the buildingWhat does this mean? There are many directions she could go
>>70708Redclaw just barely raises his eyes above the water, and raises his rifle up above the water so that he is aiming down the sights. He looks to the seawall, then the dock, then every single direction around him
>>70717Shimmer was bitching about that so we may as well redo the scene
>>70718I am in nearly the same boat. I don't play often and I don't understand the basics, but I like to have a good time with anons. You should try it.
>>70720Which area did she see the lights selecting off of the water in?
Fuck it, maybe I should just melt some trucktires...
>>70719>>70721Might try it out. I'll see if I can't come up with at least a half-decent character. If any other Anon had something I can read to help me with the basics, or could post a quick rundown on the main backstory, that would be great.
[1d20+6 = 20]>>70720Iron just jumps into the water
which I asssume I did not jump before he could surface was because I had taken off my armor, puts some power attack goodness, giving 4 extra damage and strikes with the bladed gauntlets.
>>70722She is now next to the loading dock. While this whole area is referred to as "the docks" she is in an area of concrete on the shore which is next to a dock that extends out into the water, and has a ship moored on it
>>70723I should also mention that, despite being here for a few months, I still have no clue as to how to do all the fancy dice stuff in the email slot.
>>70726You just type in the Email field:
Dice (how many dice)d(how many sides)
For example: Dice 1d20
>>70727Can you take the dice roll I did for the jump then? I'm somewhat gimping myself because in fairness I have 7 points in jump, but seeing the result makes me favour this. You can accept it, right?
>>70726Try it now, on here, see if it works!
>>70729It took me a long time as well. Not to mention countless times of leaving it in the field on the next posts. It's all good.
>>70730Yes, that we could say is a fine jump next to him, and we could even count it as his swim roll
>>70725Sister Ash still has no idea wtf she's doing, but remembers there's one this she absolutely knows she has to do.
"Ollie! Where are you?"
>>70737You can attack him. He seems to be under the impression that you threw him in the water because the police were shooting at the docks
>>70738He is not by the trucks. At least, he isn't responding if he is by the trucks
>>70739Are there any ponies in the immediate vincinity that could see her?
>>70740From behind the trucks? That's a definite maybe. from in front of the trucks? Well, they might look after something gets their attention, but they wouldn't see what is done to the trucks
>>70741How close together are the trucks?
>>70742Well to see that would depend on how close she is to the trucks and what angle she's looking at them, now wouldn't it?
>>70743I'm sorry. I'm at a loss to know where the heck anything is..
Sister Ash runs back to the soup kitchen, to see if Ollie is there.
>>70744I'll make a map, and in any case I need to pause progress until we resolve the rolling mill incident
"Ollie?! Ollie?! Where are you?!" The confused ex-nun shouts as she gallops through the streets
>>70739Can I submerge his head underwater without rolling anything other than strength, then? I want to knock him unconscious without taking off the spiked gauntlets and I can go underwater with him since I'll have the breathing edge since I was not pulled down suddenly.
>>70748He's not expecting you to attack him, so you might be able to flank him with a grapple.
Plus, since he's holding a rifle instead of a knife/sword, no AoO for him.
>>70748Hmmm, I think normally there would be a grapple check. Maybe if the only thing you do is push his head under you can do strength alone, but you wouldn't have a grapple
>>70749Plus his flight feathers are now wet, and that cuts his chances of escaping by quite a bit.
I have a couple questions:
1.) How far in the future, compared to the events in the show, does this story take place in?
2.) How long ago was it when firearms became widely available in this universe?
>>70752These are questions I would like to be clarified as well.
>>70749Before I go wasting a roll here, do I use the grapple check or the strength check to start the grapple?
