A D&D RP game based on My Little Pony, and the Hearts of Iron 4 mod Equestria at War, featuring an Equestria where the Princesses have been deposed, and Equestria is split between Changelings and a former Equestrian colony

Thus far, Dark Star has joined the fascist faction, and is taking on a job to assemble a team to stop a Communist cell. Onyx is no longer being detained, Ash has sort of joined a nunnery, Iron has joined the Waterside gang as a loanshark, Brie is still being edgy, and a new unicorn has joined. All are ready to reconnoiter the Docks.

When you step through the door, you will see that there is to your left, a sort of machine shop. To your right is a door, and a flight of stairs. In front of you the Building opens up to a very high ceiling. there are a crowd of ponies and griffons in the center. No pony is watching your current position.

There are many ponies and griffons in the crowd. You see a mare speaking. She is the same mare as from the night before who introduced Affordable Care. In the crowd, you see the Black Griffon from the Dossier.

The mare speaking tells the crowd
"We are taking action against the Fascists! Tonight, comrades, our ship lands tonight. We are importing arms to use against the fascists"

The vast door behind the mare is open.

"My Fellow workers of the world, it is time we train to take up arms for the revolution. And to that end we have secured shipments of rifles to come in, more than a thousand. Many will stay here in Baltimare when the time comes, but many will be shipped down south. That is where we shall start. A war in the Jungle to slowly bleed the fascists dry. Only later do we strike the heart, here in Baltimare."

"Death to the Fascists!"

They pause for the chant

When it ceases, the mare adds
"But we have more than just rifles coming in tonight. We have secured the help of foreign Advisers. Special Forces captains who will help us to fight our revolution. They are well educated and well experienced. They have fought in revolutions before. And they will teach us how to fight Guerrilla wars, in jungles and in cities. They will teach us how to win"

Fascist Education. If they get a base down south, that will prevent us from making a base here. We must stop this, both by infiltration and demoralizing the tribes, and by making attacks on the railways to halt their construction. We shall disguise ourselves as natives so as to direct hatred towards the natives, and stop the industrialists of the North from gaining favor with them. The Natives will fall into our fold, but only if the Fascists and the Capitalists Fail. We must also make attacks on their supply of rubber which they use for their war effort"

"Alright every pony, and now, for the guests of the night. The advisors."

Through the door, you can see a light of a small motor boat approach what you guess is the shore line. It stops, and after a minute of silence, a pony walks through the door. In this time, a set of ponies to try to play what seems to be a communist song, none other than https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U06jlgpMtQs

This pony is a Unicorn Mare, with dark red hair and a cream colored coat, a color scheme similar to Rose from the show. Her cutie mark is visible as two hooves pressed against each other, and she wears a green uniform with a red belt. She wears glasses, and has strapped over her back a PPSh-41 Submachinegun, although you can see that the magazine is not in the gun.

The speaker waits for a decent moment to stop the music, then says "Our first adviser here is named Lavender Marecuse. She is sent to us by the Worker's Council of Stalliongrad. She is a graduate of the Comintern School in Saint Petershoof, where she studied military tactics, strategy, Markist-lemmonism philosophy, and weaponized magic. She is a Mage in her own right, and as a fillie studied abroad in the Canterlot School for Gifted Unicorns. She has had experience organizing Socialist uprisings in Hellquill and briefly in Brantbeak. She is now here to help us in our revolutionary struggle."

The speaker stands aside, and Marecuse moves up. She has a sort of magnetism to her, and you can see why ponies would follow her. She says, in a thick foriegn accent. "Comrades, fellow Workers of the World, that the proletarian should rise is the innevitable course of history. We here today are a part of that course of history, and I have been sent to you to help bring it about. You proud worlers of Baltimare have the will. And tonight on our ship we are bringing in weapons. But will and weapons are not enough. You need to know how to use these weapons to bring about your liberation. And thatis what I am here to teach you"

Marecuse steps aside, and the former speaker continues
"Our next and last adviser for the time being is also with us here tonight. His name is Ho Redclaw. Redclaw was a born to a humble pastoral family in what was then Brodfield. He saw firstclaw the oppression the Griffon nobles placed upon the common Griffon. At the very beginning of the Revolution, he joined the Griffin's Liberation Army, and fought against the Reactionaries in the Marshes, Jungles, and Rice fields of Prywhen as the workers established their state, and he fought again in the Mountains of Black Hollow. He is an expert in the art of Guerrilla Warfare in hostile environments

Through the door walks a giant Griffon with rust colored feathers. He too wears a green uniform, albeit one of a different make and style, as well as a green cap. His right eye is somewhat closed by eyelids that don't open fully, as if there is swelling on either side from a scar from an injury that was not quite enough to destroy the eye. He has a rifle on his back, and he holds in his right claw a Machete, although he has a perfectly good scabbard for it on his side. This is a very big bird. Very strong looking, and he could certainly take quite a many hits. You'd wonder how he could fly if his wings weren't so massive. He dwarfs the petite mare next to him. he has no anthem, and when he speaks, he too has a sort of magnetism to him. You can see why many have followed him before

"They tell me you have jungles and marshlands here. And they tell me that you have enemies of the common folk who need cutting down" He aims out his machete, and pulls in his lower beak in such a way that it appears to be a grin. "I've cut down many an enemy of the people in my years. And I can show you how too. I tell you, there is no education that can replace experience of having done it yourself, but I can guide you in your revolution. These capitalists are weak. The fascists are stronger, but they too shall fall"

The Stairs, as mentioned before, are right at the entrance, to the right. They are straight and could very comfortably allow one pony to go up, but to place two ponies abreast on the stair would be very cramped. Effectively the stairs allow only one pony to go up or down at a time. This leads to a hallway upstairs. There is a door down on the far right end that is already open and be seen to exit down a gangway. There are three other rooms on the side of the hallway that faces the mill floor

Well, the first door opens just to a gangway that basically goes from one end of the building to the other overtop of the mill floor. the second door opens to a conference room which has chairs, tables, and massive windows that overlook the floor

The documents detail a project for a 250 mile long oil pipeline that stretches from the Badlands to Baltimare. It appears there is a desire to exploit the traditional breeding grounds of the Dragons for Oil, pump it over mountains, and then through an area of rainforest known as "Kululu," and to the Baltimare Harbor. The jungles in question are those immediately south of Baltimarte, and are well north of the Tenochtitlan basin the mare earlier was speaking about - this seems to be a different infrastructure project. A look at a group of financiers shows some names that look like Manehattan industrialists, and a 50% stake by the New Mareland government
