Occupied Equestria: New Dawn

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.

If you want Iron to tag along, you could try gathering information of his whereabouts, which is right on Cauldron's apartment, and then knock on the door and offer money to him. That should solve your second issue. As of the first, I think spamming holy water as a throwable could make it quite easy.

Well, once Silver fixes his money problems, I'm certain he would seek him out. Don't want to drag you out of your dream before you reach a satisfying conclusion yet though, so it'll be a bit, either in-game or in real life.
Holy water seems kinda useless, reading back through its page on the wiki. Feel like what Silver got of it is just going to go to waste.

So in the aftermath of the train being hijacked and lots of ponies getting murdered, and stabbing a bat-pony who was actually a good (ish) guy,...
Nothing happened?

Just ask the Blackhooves to put the Submachine gun in working order telling them you need it for the mission, Ash for explosives for the same purpose, or alternatively, buy sone fertilizer and sone diesel to make home-made ANFO bombs, plant explosives around the catacombs while using the hide from undead, then get a big set of speakers and start blasting “The Trooper” by Iron Maiden like they do in World War Z (the novel), dramatically cock the submachine gun, light the fuse, and blast away at the undead hordes. Well, use a Phonigraph that plays Kalinka loudly, but you get the idea

No comment? Well ok.
Iron picks up a stick, gets as close to the edge of the foilage near the guards as possible, and snaps it to cause noise that would hopefully lure them closer.

Well, obviously police would come investigate when the train arrives in Canterlot, and at least the RPO would be switched out. Probably most passengers would be allowed to continue, although on a delayed schedule.

Thanks for the tip, but...I dunno, might just be the pessimism I've inherited from my mom talking, but I've got a list of reasons goin' on in my head on why none of that would likely work.

The breaking of the twig sounds almost like the crack of a rifle, it’s as loud as one too. The three ponies look over.

I'm a little thrown off (not entirely because) since we're jumping ahead. So we're on our way again. The Lings have seen the train so far, Brie got to kill some shit,... good times. Brie isn't exactly incentivized to leave the cabin, for the time being, especially since he absconded with firearms from the invaders (I'm sure the police would ask about those).

Seeing how he got the ponies' attention, he awaits to see if they come over to investigate the twig's rifle-like sound.
Should sound noteworthy when it sounds so clsoe to their proximity.

So normally my commitment to realism would have Brie be questioned by Police on arrival in Canterlot Brie dropped his disguise in front of witnesses. We could skip that if you really want to get to the border crossing. Of course, this scene could change a lot

So they think Iron's a panther from sound alone it seems.
Iron, deciding to try to imitate what a panther would do, picks up another branch.
He places the tip of it on a tree and scratches the wood hard to pretend to be it sharpening its claws.

Silver: The character can’t go to sleep and dream in a locked room in broad daylight!Changelings will abduct him!
Me: If Changelings we’re going to try to abduct a party member, they’d take the form of a sloot in a bar laying a trap, and they’d do it at night.

Also Silver, a little later: hey look! Silver is sleeping on Skies’ lap in a bar. Also I’m pretty sure she’s feeding off of him.

They continue looking over, vigilant

Iron, feeling like they're not dumb enough to actually come to what they think it could be a panther, simply nods.
The tip of the branch is scratching the bark off of that tree with a calm, concise flow of a long vertical slice.

Dangit.
Iron, knowing that the panther routine will probably not work when they heard something somewhere else, decides to throw a rock as fast and hard as possible to possibly tear a hole straight through it in order to cause even more ruckus towards his side.

I figured the “totally” meant that anything that followed in the sentence was ironic.

Anyways, Brie would have seen the sun rise as the train increases in elevation up the side of a mountain, overlooking a long valley, forest and farms, and eventually slowing down as it enters a town of black roofs and stone buildings, then enters a beige station with a number of police in both black and blue along the red-lined platforms. Police would have knocked on Brie’s door and answered it themselves. Police would have had surprisingly few questions for Brie besides what his motive was for doing what he did (like if he knew the officer was an officer, why he attacked the rebels, what exactly happened in the RPO, what he was doing in the RPO, why he was on the train, and so forth). At some point, they shine a bright light in Brie’s eyes.

>>100105
Well, if he doesn’t fall asleep, forget that

Hey, wait up!
Iron, seeing the battle Cauldron is in, rushes from within the foilage to try and help out in this dire predicament.
He charges at the nearest guard, going for a swift buck to the head for maximum damage.
If I can actually charge them.
