Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where the Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures because of their encounters with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestrian Southeast, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and corrupt creepy politicians threaten the city. 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.
The long train ride from Baltimare to Bales has been interrupted by a group of partisan fighters, claiming to be looking for none other than Pinkie Pie, who has been kept prisoner since the end of the war. They don't seem to have found their prize, but they do seem to have found a very pissed off Brie, Onyx, and Spark, as well as another Bat Pony, and both groups have been interrupted by a new set of intruders. In Baltimare, Silver, Dark Star, and Iron await a new and uncertain dawn.

Alright. When we last left off, Brie was getting kiked by a shitty dice roll and some curiously interpreted game physics.
How fast is the train going?

Maybe 30 MPH? Pretty fast, but very far below the 80 MPH+ that is the average speed of the train’s route

Much as last time, they jump into the wind trying to glide forward by using their own momentum. They try to fly in the 20 feet or so of clearing between the tracks and the forest

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" Brie Eeee's to himself.
Pulling his head back into the car, Brie storms toward the engine room.

Brie runs over and past a disoriented mail pony, and opens the door. As stated before, the gap between the locomotive and the RPO is not covered nor is there a floor, but neither is it non traversable. The door to the locomotive is unlocked. Going in, the Layout, strangely enough, is almost like that of a normal sleeping car, with a door in the center and a narrow corridor along the far left side of the locomotive. But unlike a normal car, there are no windows, only lighting. To the right are noisy stainless steel covered units with gauges, handles, and small openings fit things like oil. Some parts are more exposed, showing massive Diesel engines with giant cylinders driving large electric generators. Further towards the front, the corridor leads into an open cab. Or rather, an area behind the main cab that has a pair of bunks, a coffee machine on the right, and a small door on the left that is probably a lavatory. Through a threshold is the cab itself, where there are a pair of seats, a throttle, and a number of gauges and what have you on a control panel. Through the forward windows the track and the night are illuminated by the train’s headlight, and the night above is starry.
Black Ozren stands there and looks back at Brie, and another pony, an earth pony who is also blue, wears a grayish uniform. There is a copy of the Princess’s journal laying on part of the control panel off to the right. Ozren addresses Brie
“You again?”

“What safe? The one in the RPO the bandits dynamited to try to get? Probably cash being transferred between banks, maybe jewelry... if it was something special, I am not aware of it.”

Ozren looks over the to the engineer pony demandingly
“Smokes.”
The engineer pony lowers his ears
“Smokes. Now.”
He pulls out a cigarette from a pocket
“A light, too.”
Ozren answers
“That I need to get the hell out of this forest”

Loot, ammo, weapons, whatever. Brie has no idea how long this is going to take, and since he's down to two of his daggers ;_; it may be time to improvise

Damn.
Looking into the opened safe, Brie can see, or rather, feel, that a number of notes were left in the back safe by the bandits in their haste. A book is also neglected. Perhaps more interesting are several envelopes that have fallen on the floor, but are too “fat” and heavy to simply be normal letters... they carry something valuable.
Also probably some of his daggers should still be there. At least the ones that were thrown inside of the train.
There is a shotgun with some shells in the RPO, and a carbine in the coach car as well as a pair of magazines. Private snowflake seems to have jumped the train when she could earlier.

By that I mean, how much ammo does he have for each weapon, how many of his blades did he manage to locate, what's in the envelopes and everything, how much money did he find, etc.
"Du Junge Tiere hast noch die Papiere, die ich dir gegeben habe?" Brie asks the Lings, while pouring through everything.

Okay, so who is available when?
Well... it looks like Dark Star is dead...
At least he got to lather Skies
Silver may need to go for his Wheaties alone

F. He will be missed.
How long are those two going to be in there? Silver gives the clock an impatient look, as he has been doing since he had stopped eavesdropping on Star and Skies' passion a few minutes ago. He throws his hooves in the air in a "fuck it" fashion, signaling he's had enough. I have things I need to do today. I can not wait forever for them to finish. As he begins to put on his clothing and equipment, he jots down a small note on a "borrowed" napkin for Blue, stating how he's going out to do a couple of tasks before tackling that catacombs job again today.
A few more minutes later, a fully-readied Silver makes his way out of the Hotel for the first time in what feels like ages. An empty growl from his stomach signals his most pressing concern. He quickly hooks himself up to the cart he left outside last night, and makes his way towards the diner he and Skies visited yesterday for Breakfast.
Still can not believe all of that took place in one day. Here is hoping today will be little bit more calm and orderly.

He would have, had Star not stolen Skies for himself.
Unless it's a personal request from you. I'm fine with retconning if you want to be able to actually do something with Skies today, instead of waiting for Star to suddenly decide to be not-ded.

I mean, I would have thought it would be silver and Skies with Star thereafter joining them... I don’t know. It kind of makes sense to split but I thought there would be a discussion about it first

Ohok. I'll let you be lazy then. For the sake of posterity:
There were two ponies down the ledge. They had a little more description, which makes me think they are semi-important ponies that I don't want to kill and can interrogate for info and be evil with the mare to get it.
>>99659
Try not to pound her and spill your seed inside of her again. A shitstorm of high magnitude will occur again.

You just don't know when two specific players will be online at the same time, which creates problems when an NPC/DMPC is involved with both of them and they have different plans for their character's days.
Just as much as you would want this to be enjoyable for us Players, we would want this to be enjoyable for you the DM. Plus with Skies, you're basically a player in your own right, albeit with godly control over the universe we all reside in. If you want, I'll gladly retcon so Silver stays a bit longer: it's only one post to delet, after all. The interaction during the mission would certainly make it more interesting for everyone involved, you included.

He jumped down from the ledge to do that, yes. It is unsure of their allegiance yet. I think they're meant to be enemies from that one bang someone did when I hit the ledge gunstallion.

Making sure I'm not accidentally hitting a possible friendly.
Iron glances at the mare, unsure of going for her first. He fixes his gaze over to the stallion pointing another one of these armor piercers on him.
"You ponies and your guns."
Iron closes the distance between him and the armed pony for a swift, powerful strike on his chest.

(Uh oh. She is definitely threatening now.)
Seeing how the bullets he assumes Cauldron shot flicked off without much of an issue, decides to activate his survival instinct, breaking his code, and charges straight for the mare for a powerful hit for her chest.
(I must try her magical barrier to see if melee attacks work on her. She will not be available to fire with me right on her.)

A bullet breaks through and wounds the mare, as blood comes out of her barrel.
“All that for a little blood?” She says to Cauldron, with still 20 rounds in her magazine, which she levels at Cauldron
Pear, by contrast, comes out of the tent carrying none other than the dog statue. She then says, or rather, incants,
“E te atua nui o te whakawa tika a te Atua, kawea mai tou riri ki ou hoa whawhai”
And from the skies above, a bolt of lighting comes down and strikes the mare.

Cauldron makes Iron drink the potion, then tries to grab some pieces of cloth to stop the bleeding. A minute passes, and Iron feels, well, not dying.

Iron takes the potion from Cauldron, drinking it all in one gulp in his prone position
"Right. I might have compromised that after that 'getting my coat shredded' business."
Dangit. I could've sworn you'd at least need a perk to fire point-blank in 3.5 but crossbows and arrows are not exactly close-ranged guns. Nevermind that one guy who pulled off crazy close-ranged shots with that one technique. Guessing he had the perk.

Crud. I suppose it was a bad idea to hit the LMG mare to begin with. Would the punch do anything if it landed?
Iron grunts in mild to moderate pain, clenching his teeth strongly to try to stop any screams from the knife digging in his flesh looking for the bits of metal.
"I unders-stand."
