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.

>>74746She turns the corner, still using her shield as cover.
>>74748Wherever the hallway leads.
>>74744>>74750Iron goes the corner opposite of Ash.
>>74725Dark Star Smiles
"We better hurry back then."
Dark Star motion at the waiter
>>74752Good idea.
Remember to hold up that shield. They can't shoot you so long as you have cover.
>>74754He uses his shield as cover, then.
[1d4 = 2][1d20+6 = 18]>>74749Spark is hit squarely in the chest by a huge set of bits, knocking him down
Rolling damage
>>74750>>74751It's getting dark this way, as there is no illumination. There is a door to the right, and it seems more down the hallway as it is straight. It is hard to see, and there are no visible enemies
>>74752As he nears the corner, he hears a loud damned bang. It comes from the
side and thus is not protected by the shield
>>74753Maybe 50 bits for the set, including the band
>>74756It does not seem to penerate, right?
>>74756"Ow! The hay was that for?"
The sorcerer slowly gets up after the hard hit.
>>74756"The Spaghetti was Fantastic."
DarkStar pays the bill plus the tip
>>74756Also, you added an extra hit bonus for some reason.
>>74759"So you decided to throw it at me?"
I gather them up before some other patron decides to swipe it.
[3d6 = 14]>>74755>>74756Iron is hit by a shotgun blast that comes from beside him. The pellets just barely pierce through the side of his armor.
This happens 5 feet before he gets to the corner, in essentially the same position as where the Dog got shot at by the same method
>>74757Well, equaling the AC is a penetration. If the shot had come from in front of him, it would not have beat the shield
>>74762"It was the easiest way to get them to you"
>>74761If that had been a pitfall trap instead, it would have been a +10 bonus on the daggers
>>74765From the front, yes. From the right side, no
>>74766Wait, are you saying that flanking negates shield bonus?
[1d20+5 = 17]
Listen check, to hear how many shooters there are
>>74760Blue skies canters back quickly, but still enjoys the benefits of a government job
>>74770The air in the immediate area is silent. Further away - and I mean
much further away, there is movement, but the shooters either don't exist, or are perfectly silent. Ash was not shot after passing the location where the dog was shot at
>>74772Ash takes off a bucker and tosses it down the hall ahead of her, still using her door-thing as cover.
>>74771The shot comes from the side
>>74773Roll to see how far
>>74763Can I attack the pony, then?
>>74775She only manages it 15 feet. It clanks, but nothing else happens
>>74777Well that's precisely the thing. There is no pony
>>74776And one comes
>>74778Great. Just great.Iron turns his shield around to where the shot hits him, protecting him from further shots.
>>74779It looks to be a wall, with no slots in it for an attacker to shoot through
Also, Iron is
not shot again
[1d20+4 = 8]>>74778She hurls a sling bullet down the hall
>>74782Whatever, she uses her remaining move action to advance 15 feet in that direction.
>>74781>>74783Ash advances 15 feet. If she is only 15 feet past the turn in the hallway, she is still in the light area
>>74780Iron slowly follows Ash, backs against eachother. "I cannot see the attacker."
>>74785Didn't you go to the opposite hallway from Ash?
[1d20+4 = 5]>>74785"Neither can I...."
Ash hurls another stone blindly into the hallway, still hiding behind her shield
>>74787That's my question. I've had Iron advancing down the hallway opposite of Ash
>>74789Then he back away from the corridor and go to Ash's corridor. I am backtracking my movements, still facing the corridor that I was going through.
>>74778He Gets in
"To the Hotel on [Enter Street Name Here]"
>>74790>>74790The journey to Ash's corner is uneventful, until shortly before he gets there, where he sees a stone fly back from Ash's direction and hits a window
>>74791And thus the pony takes them there. It feels a bit dangerous, but it is quick. They arrive at the steps
[1d20+4 = 8]>>74792Ash tosses one more rock, before moving another 15 feet
>>74788The sling fails to open at the proper time, hurling the stone
backwards
>>74793This one.... also fails to go very far
>>74792"Thanks Colt. How much for the ride?"
