Occupied Equestria: set six years after season 6, it presents an alternative history where Chrysalis chose a different approach to her second attack on Equestria. The Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while an Equestrian splinter colony - soured to Princesses notion of harmony with all creatures thank to their dealing with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestruan Southlands, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and even ancient necormancers and dark gods threaten the city and the surrounding regions. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.
In this latest episode, the crew has united once again, and returned in full to the catacombs under the Curwhinny farm. What old secrets they will unearth, whether they will survive without being turned into undead monsters... whether Silver will ever get paid... will be determined in this thread.

>>82303“You can fight the native now. He should be softened up nicely for you”
>>82322You had no chance in a hoof fight.
Without improved unarmed strike, he'd get an AoO every time you tried to hit him.
>>82323I mean by how I described the extent of how hurt Silver was. It just seemed like, for the damage they both got being so similar, I went way above and beyond what I should have in describing how hurt Silver was.
>>82325Can health potions magically regrow missing teeth?
>>82326Well yeah, but neither did Star. He had less health than Silver, less Dex, and still didn't have Improved Unarmed Strike. His only advantage compared to Silver is that Star has Two-Weapon Fighting.
The only reason Silver did as well as he did was because Iron didn't take advantage of any of those AoOs.
[1d8+3 = 11]>>82327Uh, shouldn't Iron help Ash move the jars first? >>82330>>82332GM did the same with Rover, having him attack with two fists.>>82329Iron laughs. "Nothing like a mare's embrace to bolsten your fortitude, eh? Give me a second." He starts fishing out his small potion reserves and drinks one of them. Rolling damage healed.
>>82336I know, I've read the monk guide and how you can always fight unarmed with any part of your body.
>>82338>>82336Iron shakes his head, both to dispel his spacing out and to communicate that he's not. "Ash, I need you to take my armor again. I thought Silver was supposed to represent him." Iron then stares at Star. "I hope you are ready, because I am not holding back like I did with Silver."
>>82339There's a better rule: If the GM does it, then you can also do it. I guess it actually aids me in the battle with Star but it has been settled already with the Rover fight that unarmed can be two weapons instead of one.
>>82340 You're right. It's none of my business. I'll shut up.Sister Ash gives a sigh, and takes the bags from him. Then she takes another 4 minutes helping him out of his armor.
"Just don't kill each other now."
>>82340"i wouldnt expect anything else. this is gonna be fun either way."
>>82343Prepare to get grappled to zero hp.
>>82343Blue Skies looks uncertain about the present situation
>>82342No need to shy away from asking. 'A person who asks a question is dumb for a bit. A
person who never asks a question is dumb forever' - Some important person>>82343>>82325Iron chuckles. He then turns to Skies. "Were you not supposed to set up the bets, Skies? Come on, give Star and me a little incentive."
Sister Ash looks somewhat impatient.
"Well, get on with it now."
>>82347Iron strokes Ash's mane. "Do not fret. It will happen soon enough, just setting up some bets to raise the stakes."
>>82348Gambling is Haram.
"How about the loser has to do 48 hours of community service next week?"
>>82349>>82345Iron, impatient with Skies' long thought process, just goes with it, not really knowing what it is. "Eh, sounds good enough. Any objections, Star?"
>>82351*concerned Pegasus noises*
“Do you want me to do anything, Star?”
>>82351Onyx considers commenting that the community service should be finding an outhouse to clean out.
>>82351Iron shrugs. "Fine by me. Now get rid of all possessions. No weapons. No armor. No equipment. Just your hooves and your wits."
>>82351Sister Ash looks very pleased.
"Very well then. Seventy-two hours of unpaid volunteer community services over the course of one week."
She claps her hooves together and gives a dramatic bow."
"May the best stallion win
>>82355Iron snickers at Ash's announcer's voice. "Cute," he mutters to himself.
>>82355“When did you start presiding over duels?”
>>82352"Do you have any other things to add to the wager or any terms? i thought you wanted to punch him?"
>>82357"Shush, Skies. Do not ruin the moment."
>>82358"Just punch each other already, I wanna watch"
>>82357"I don't do duels. But I've seen my fair share of spars. It's a regular thing at monastaries where I come from."
>>82361“They punch each other until one has a tooth knocked out and falls unconscious? Fascinating, I would have thought the spiritually minded had better things to do with their teeth and time”
[1d20 = 9]>>82355>>82358>>82360Iron loosens his neck and readies his basic fighting stance, not wanting the spectators to get bored. "I hope you are ready. It is time to impress your mare, Star."
Rolling initiative.
>>82362"Sure, judge like your tribe did not do that at all."
>>82362"Hmmmph. Sparing is a bit more civilized in our temples. Now let's cut the chat and let the stallions play their little game."
>>82362>>82358>>82363>>82360>>82361Silver staggers over from where he was left by Iron to watch the fight, massaging his sore, bruised, and lumpy jaw. "...Ow...Селестия, черт побери. I suppose, I took punch for nothing, then."
>>82367Dark Star wins the initiative. Attack now.
>>82368Silver works his jaw some more. "I suppose I have you to thank for realigning my jaw. I am grateful."
>>82370"Anytime. I wish they wouldn't fight though. This is only making there be more of a problem."
[2d20+3 = 29]>>82369Dark Star Throws a jab with his left hoof and a uppercut with his right
two weapon fighting is nice desu [1d20+11 = 20]>>82372How am I supposed to read that?Iron reacts against Star's thrown punch with his own.
