Occupied Equestria: Day 5

The Adventure continues

Six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where Chrysalis chose a different approach to her second attack on Equestria. The Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures thank to their dealing 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 Eastside Tavern Gang has broken through the house and pool-house of the politician Comte Burgher. What they found has been nothing short of astonishing. Deeds for properties bought by secret societies, seditious communications, cryptic booklets, concerning academic interests, and above all else, a sex dungeon with two young colts chained up, and traumatized. With these, they found something else: two caged and chained up adolescent Changeling drones. So doing what any logically minded group of people would do when encountering caged life-force vampires, they let the things suck on them, then took them home and hugged them and loved them and squeezed them and called them 'George.'

Dark Star is coming to terms with loss in the Stallion's room of the Eastside tavern, while Iron aids him. Silver dreams of an Equestria that is no more and his long lost family (while sleeping in a fairly awkward position). Ash awaits a new dawn of service, Onyx a new life of possible employment, while Brie and Spark stay in a small room with two strange guests

Kirins are just furrier versions of ponies. That's why they're the best non-pony race.

And here we thought the changelings were the real danger. Kirins are just preparing for their own assault with snuggles and cuddles. Nopony could resist their floof, fur and scales.

I wonder if they'll add the Kirin Village to Equestria At War once they add Zebrica to the game. Their next big update should be either Zebrica or the rework of Stalliongrad, and I'm excited for either. Imagine the resurrection of the White Army of Severyana, and the creation of the Pony Tsardom in Northern Equestria.

I wonder if they'll make it a big country or just a tribe like some griffonian countries in the game currently. I would also want to know which classifications and special properties the kirins would have.
I can feel the rise of niriks as a possible facist route for the kirin territory.

Neat. We don't have many oriental-styled countries in the mod.

It's fairly simple: before you can declare war, you need to justify a casus belli for a specific reason, ranging from forcing your ideology on a different country, to puppeting them, to taking their states. Then you just declare war and do your best to command your armies to victory. If one side ends up victorious, they can enforce their claims on the losing side, even those they haven't justified in exchange for appearing like a threat to the rest of their neighbors and increasing world tension even further. Different ideologies can only declare or justify wars if world tension is at a certain point. Communist and Fascist nations can declare war from the get-go, while Non-Aligned and Harmonist nations can only do so when world tension is beyond the 50% mark. Considering how much, in this game's headcanon, both the Changeling Hegemony and New Mareland have declared war, it's very likely world tension is well beyond the 50% mark.

The kirins will probably have a few states per country, ranging from 1 for countries like the Kirin Village, to 4 for minor countries, to 10 for major countries. I don't expect them to have anything close to the Changeling Land or Olenia's large number of states, and especially not Equestria's ungodly number of states.

I've been doing a bit of all four, getting a taste for what suits me. I will say, I miss the greater variety of ideologies from Victoria 2, though I guess it doesn't make sense to have a Reactionary or Anarcho-Liberal government in a WWII setting.

She can see it from where she stands. A noticeable plums of steam not that far ahead. As for the water, it looks more clear than not, but a brown substance rests along part of the banks
