Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
Eh... Been in university for the day, kind of back, but gotta study a bit for tomorrow's test.
Oh wow, an possibly actually good steel ranger? that seems pretty nice
Lycan... My guess is that the fun about Steel Rangers is exactly
their equipment, so I doubt giving him just normal gear would ruin it. I mean, scribes are boring, with some exceptions .
But yeah, I thought Ducard actually got pwned in a duelExtended sig

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
Wait, are you meaning to back me up here? Because that's kinda my point. You don't need to have power armor and weapons to be awesome as a Steel Ranger. Normal gear is still fun and effective, and a lot more fair, balanced, and in-line with the fluff.
I mean, scribes are boring, with some exceptions .
Heck, Scribes in the Steel Rangers are more awesome than normal BoS Scribes, because they not only learn about all the technology stuff, but they learn and archive magic too! So no, I have to disagree. Scribes are not boring.
Now. In regards to what is happening in Fillydelphia...
I accept no responsibility for whatever happens to Eleyew. Stern is one of the main BBEGs from the fic, and I'm sure everyone who's read it knows how nice I just was with her blowing up the slave instead of Eleyew. I PM'd Dark Elf Bard and told her that Eleyew would be okay as long as she didn't do anything stupid.
Insulting Stern qualifies as "anything stupid."
So yeah. There's a pretty strong chance she may get herself killed if she digs herself any deeper. This isn't me being homicidal. This is me doing the GM job. So, please, nobody go crusading against me for "forceful player killing" or anything silly like that. I'm just doing my job, IF it comes to that...Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
Eh... I though I wrote an "I think", not "I doubt"
No, my whole point is normal gear is boring and the point of steel rangers (at least to me) is using advanced fun stuff
The whole point it's that it's just freaking cool.
Learning and archiving tech and magic is boring! the whole fun is geting a knight/paladin and shooting and exploding things! most of their stuff is action and action and MOAR action! and if scribes do, knights get a lot more plus armor and wepons and stuff....
....Well, action is the only fun thing for me anywaysLast edited by Luka; 2012-11-01 at 09:36 PM.

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
There's nothing wrong with liking the action, adventure, and explody bits of the RP. That's well and fine! And having high powered characters isn't an issue either. Power level is simply a tool that allows PCs to get involved with situations that would be suicidal otherwise.
HOWEVER.
Dropping a power level 4 pony into a group of power level 2-3 ponies can cause a bit of trouble. A huge power disparity within a group makes it a lot harder for us as the GMs to set up encounters that can challenge everypony without being impossible for somepony.
Also: Steel Rangers don't kick out other Steel Rangers who refuse to follow orders. They execute them. If you want to play a Steel Ranger paladin with all their gear then play them straight. This renegade stuff isn't going to fly because it makes no in-universe sense.Warning! Random Encounter™ detected!

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
Part of my magic-learning experience involved feeling like I was going to incinerate myself. Followed by nearly incinerating Fleetwing. Learning isn't exactly boring.
I've got another character who has something else to say about this topic, but that would be a spoiler. Anyway, research can be exciting in its own ways, such as experiments going wrong.When in doubt, use cute little dragons.

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
And thus, Violetta passes her first test on her way to becoming Fleetwing's Morality Pet.
Regarding Laminos' brother, it's possible he could have some of that equipment if he were on a slightly different quest. Perhaps he volunteered to be the one to hunt down his brother, so that nopony else would get to him first? His plan could simply be to try and work out a future where Laminos is alive, and not getting hunted by the Steel Rangers. As for his equipment, how much of that would've survived getting entirely submerged in quicksand? Or better yet, how much would he have to shed/drop to not be doomed himself?I'm developing a game. Let's see what happens! Complex.

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
Ducard was killed off in a duel.... Back when Lamianos had a horn and shot glances of fear at people. The fluff I wrote for him then was for a character design that got fixed up as it went through the motions.
Yeah, a railgun is a bit much, i'll admit. Heck, i don't think i've even seen one with my own eyes. I've just kind of painted a mental image of one from all the times i've read about them. The more I think about it, the more I like Amish' idea though (Both of them actually). Would that be more in line with fluff and sense making?“I’m a Terrorist not an idiot.” - Me

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
Hunting Lamianos and having to ditch some/most/all the gear to survive the quicksand? Yeah, I guess we can go with that.
Huh. I'm noticing some rather interesting character reactions. Or lack thereof. Bright Eyes walking into a gore-filled room full of I don't even know what, and all she does is comment snarkily on the interior decorating. Meanwhile, Eleyew doesn't even acknowledge that an anti-tank rifle just got fired in her face, and that somebody just got exploded because of her copping an attitude. You'd think most normal characters would have some reaction to things like that......
These characters must being jaded sociopaths or something, man....Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.

It's the wasteland man. It changes you. Albeit, probably not that rapidly.
Heh, the scene's already playing out in my mind:
"We meet again brother. It seems as if I can't run and you won't flee..... To the death I presume?"
"Aye...." *He pulls out a revolver*
"Really?....."
"Yeah, but Luka loaned it to me. So if I don't win coukd you give it back to him?"

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
I'd kinda like to know who all is actually going into town. If everyone is going into the town, or if somepony is going to wait outside of town, that needs to be clarified. Also, you can go ahead and say whose house you're going to first - Bucky isn't visibly outside.

Well, I've posted pretty recently in terms of that scene, and Violetta is definitely going into town, so I think I'll let the others clarify things.

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
Reading Down's reactions to seeing Lucky just made me realize something that I really should've quite a while ago:
Pegasi aren't all that common on the surface, are they? Sure, they aren't as sparse in Equestria as, say, Zebras might be, but you're going to see far, far more Earth Ponies and Unicorns by comparison. If so, then this is going to definitely cement a few up-in-the air details regarding Fleetwing's past.Last edited by TheAmishPirate; 2012-11-03 at 12:44 PM.

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
Actually, you're more likely to meet a Zebra than a Pegasus. As I recall, Calamity said that to his knowledge, there's only one other living Dash-ite in the Wasteland besides him, and he's an elderly stallion named Radio. So yeah, the original fic implies that pegasi on the ground are extremely rare.
It's within reason to assume, though, that there are a few descendants or low-profile Dash-ites scattered around the Wastes, and probably a few who are or descended from Stable-dwellers. But the total earth-bound pegasus population, not counting those in Stables, probably numbers below two dozen.
On the flip side, Zebras have at least one decently-populated settlement (before the alicorns decided they were fun to sacrifice, at least), so they kinda have numerical superiority by default. Not to mention various descendants and scattered wanderers. I seem to recall at least one Vault that held Zebras, though I don't recall what happened to it...Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
However keep in mind that Fallout Equestria was written before we found out about throwbacks, that even a pair of earth ponies can birth pegasi or unicorns if they have the blood in their family.
Pegasus are relatively rare, yeah. But just by looking at what we have thus far in the game and taking into account what we've learned from Season Two a higher pegasus population is by no means out of the question.Warning! Random Encounter™ detected!

Re: [FO:E] Fallout Equestria OOC 2: Ante-Up My Little Ponies
"I got it! I'll hide out on one of them pre-ser-vations, and anytime a pony tries t'kill me, they get hauled off for huntin' an endangered species! It's foalproof!"
Alright, so I don't mess up backstory details with canon, what does it take to get exiled from, but not executed by, the Enclave? I know that, at least in our setting, we have operatives working on the surface, as well as the odd mining/trading towns in the mountains, so they're allowed to spend some time on the surface with no repercussions. Is there some sort of deadline to return to the clouds, after which a pegasus is considered "unclean"?I'm developing a game. Let's see what happens! Complex.
