Welcome back to thread number like 5 or 6 of Occupied Equestria, a My Little Pony RP based heavily upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and using the mechanics of D&D 3.5, and set in South-East Equestria after it has been conquered and split between the Changelings and a foreign fascist power

Onyx is cleaning glasses, Spark has secured a contract to clear a quarry of Zombies for a real estate developer, Silver is eating meat, Ash and Iron are trying to raid what they believe to be a gangster's den, and Dark Star is holding hooves.

Do you think they would place a low value on children?

The chances of these ponies just handing over the children are between zero and zero. If any feel inclined to run over, they are paused, and most do not attempt it.

Except the sixth foal. This one runs over to Ash and demands to be hugged

Well, the GM said it's not carefully hidden. It's just a string that connects to a shotgun trigger, so a somewhat faithful comparison is arrows. Remember that the GM increased 1 extra hit chance because I triggered the trap instead of the dog. He compared it with daggers, which would have added +10. Maybe it is just a simple arrow trap turned gunpowdery.

No need to be salty. Danger is good. Think of it this way: the more dangerous the trap, the more XP you get. It's only two ponies adventuring, so the CR is higher.

Alright, I’ve thought about it and if 2 bars go to Onyx, 2 to Iron, 1 to Dark Star and 3 are the Devil’s Cut, that leaves 2 bars, both of which could go to Ash
I was hoping Brie would claim it... or Silver otherwise

>>75042
Guns are a fairly easy way, in addition doubling and tripling HP, to make a 1/2 CR threat into a real threat, as they have much bigger damage die. To make an enemy with a longsword as damaging as one with a revolver would require giving it 14 strength, which is well above the standard template

Onyx and Spark were already there, then Dark Star and Silver arrive. All 4 are at a bar.
