Destroy Thoraxian Resistance
The remnants of filthy harmonic terrorist groups have once again activated in various hive-cities across the country. Multiple intelligence sources state that they will soon begin their final rebellion against the legitimate government. However, our loyal agents are already working on locating their hideouts.

Final Propaganda Wave
The propaganda machine has been in motion since 1002, after Chrysalis' failed invasion of Equestria. Now the situation has calmed down. The Ministry of Information will begin a new propaganda campaign. Everybody who lives in the country will come to the conclusion that changeling supremacy should be the ultimate goal of every citizen and that under the leadership of Queen Chrysalis, this goal will be reached.

Despite ending in failure, Chrysalis came tantalisingly close to capturing Canterlot. 5 years later, Canterlot Defeat still leaves its marks on the changeling society. Queen's government used it to cultivate hatred towards Equestria and ponies. It became a corner stone for unification of the changelings for the path of war.

Hive Trains
Infrastructural development is an obvious requirement for the rapidly expanding industry, with the need for trains to transport an increasingly larger amount of materials. This would also include the underground roads which changelings have primarily used since their inception as a species, as a bright ling has drawn up plans to put a railway underground.

Northern mountains are rich in iron ore. However, to use it efficiently, means of transport across the country and processing plants will have to be built. The military hive of Vraks is the ideal location for the latter, as the Vraksians will be able to quickly refine the steel into weapons of war. Commoragh will be overseeing the project and guarantees the Queen that it will be finished on schedule.

Our lands are vast, but there are many dangerous forests among the desolate terrain. With round-the-clock work schedules, penal work battalions can cut, burn and clear trails through the more perilous terrain. Death may come to many workers, but the results will be worth it.
The Arctic holds large quantities of minerals, including phosphate, bauxite, iron ore, copper, nickel, and most importantly, large quantities of oil that lie untapped. We must acquire these assets as soon as possible to improve our economy and to feed the unending thirst of our mighty Panzers. We will need to refine and stockpile as much fuel as possible in preparation for the future.

Should they refuse our generous offer however, we can still have our war.
Olenia has never had any respect for us. There is no doubt that they will turn against the Changeling Lands once they are finished their internal struggles.

Crush Stalliongrad
The Queen has declared herself the ruler of all of Equestria, and this includes Stalliongrad, the wretched communist separatists. It is time to remove them from the greater picture and destroy socialism at its very source, once and for all.
The yaks are a proud warrior race, and they will not be subdued easily. They only respect strength, so if we wish them to recognize Chrysalis as the overlord of Equus, we must prove our strength to them. Their tall mountains and frozen forests won't be an obstacle for our mighty army!
The penguins control the strategically vital northern sea passage and have so far refused to recognize Chrysalis as their master. Clearly, they must be taught a violent lesson in humility. The pathetic flightless birds will be easy prey.
Nova Griffonia, the isolated former colony of the fallen Griffonian Empire, stands defiant in our rightful claim over Equus. The last vestige of Griffonian influence on our continent needs to be excised. Without their Empire to protect them, they have no chance to resist our might.
While some within the hives speak out against the current war and the toll it is taking on our populace, they matter little. We must be prepared to wage war indefinitely, until victory is finally achieved. Dissidents will not be tolerated. We must triumph at any cost.
In order to enact our revenge on Celestia and her lackeys, we must transition our country's efforts completely to war. The changelings won't be happy if it drags on for too long, but they can rest assured that victory is near. All it takes is a little sacrifice.
Form Pony Work Battallions
As the invasion progresses, it desolates the rich lands of Equestria. Creating work groups from the locals will help us keep the infrastructure and industry intact on the newly taken territories.

For some reason we have not instantly toppled the Equestrians in the opening months of the war. Clearly, the stakes must become higher.

Griffon School of War
Before its collapse from within, the Griffonian Empire had the largest army in the world. Its units were drilled with defence in mind, to hold on to vast swathes of land and to repel aggressive uprisings and raids. Perhaps defence is best offence, as with bite-and-hold tactics we will slowly but surely advance. We have much to learn from our feathered friends.

Although changelings are an inherently aggressive species, there is a certain wisdom in learning to temper this natural bloodlust. Following advice from our griffon allies, our warrior ethos has changed to reflect a more careful approach to warfare, instead of making risky breakthroughs.
Changeling School of War
Our race has waged war with itself for countless centuries before Queen Chrysalis united us. Rapid decisive attacks by mobile swarms led by competent commanders were always the key to victory. If it is not broken, why fix it? All we have to do is update our doctrine to modern times, which the previous generation of officers failed to do.

Threaten the Bear
It seems words alone will not get us what we want. We will have to show them that we are serious and fully capable of following up on our threats. More military units will be sent to our border, our planes will fly over their airspace and our navy will sail near their coasts. Maybe then they will take us seriously.
Even after our threats, the bears continue to defy us. It is time to teach them a lesson! We are changelings and we do not let barbaric races dictate terms to us. We will crush the savage beasts with ease. Even the mighty bears stand no chance against long-ranged high-caliber guns.
The Polar territories are in a pitiful state. There are few roads, and even fewer of those are suitable for our heavy industry and military manoeuvres. We must put effort in where they have not. Only then will we be able to supply any military operations in the frigid wastes of the cold north.
With the additition of the Polar Bear territories we have conquered, even more potential resources has fallen into our grasp. None of them will go to waste. Bears themselves are strong, useful for mining the ore in their lands. We will put them to work, and will not suffer dissent.
Key Lake is an ideal test site, or at least, the eastern side of it is. Sparsely populated and in an isolated area, it would make a perfect site for testing our more... dangerous weapons. We will fence off a large area and conduct scientific experiments, using bears as test subjects if needed.

Winning the Great War was but the first step in the realisation of the Pax Chrysalia. Whilst our victorious troops occupy the smouldering ruins of Equestria's cities, the arduous task of asserting Changeling rule over the vast continental interior must begin apace.

Equestria was shattered in the Great War, but the ponies refuse to acknowledge defeat.

Our approach to the occupation must be one that is flexible and pragmatic, capable of seizing every opportunity to chip away at the Equestrian spirit of defiance.
Sizeable swathes of the Equestrian population languish in prison camps; POWs, dissidents, prominent pony leaders, and other undesirables. The amount of resources and personnel dedicated to their incarceration is quite extortionate. The formation of a penal service corps comprised of such criminals will allow them to work for their rehabilitation by contributing to the economy as unskilled labour.

After all, it only takes one voice to share an idea, and ideas, once shared, become the seeds for revolution...
While a self-sufficient Equestrian economy is not our goal, we can not be complacent in the impending socioeconomic collapse of our occupied territories. Offering conditional financial support to businesses will hopefully keep ponies employed and capital moving through the recovering economy of Equestria, which will, in the end, bring money back to the Hives.

A War Conduct Tribunal will be held, ensuring swift and severe justice.
With our garrisons across Equestria in danger of being isolated and encircled by the Resistance forces that infest the countryside, it is crucial that we establish a versatile rapid-response task force, capable of deploying and operating in the middle of hostile territory to strike behind enemy lines.
The resistance that covers much of Equestria is like a cancer, or like a strangling vine choking the life out of the glory of the Pax Chrysalia. Yet it is still small for the time being, and therein lies our chance to get ahead of the curve.
