---|---|---|
A Wing and a Prayer
We are a spit of rock in the middle of a churning sea of chaos. A burning wreck. The police is swarmed by looters and criminals. The government cannot keep up with the paperwork. The infrastructure cannot support independence. The border guards watch Equestrian rangers uneasily over the fence. Something must be done. Mayor Rokenhar must put his hoof down.
|
|
The Harmonists want to return to Equestria, which would result in your re-annexation! Lower their party popularity or change ideology to prevent this. The Communists, as always, want to establish a Socialist state. You can use them as a political tool against the Harmonists, but if they get too popular, they may take over. The Patriotic Citizen Army primarily opposes the Communists, but also have no issues in forcibly taking power from you if they get too popular.
|
Equestria Is Doomed
Cleaved in half by a deadly civil war, the rest of Equestria will not stand for long. Even if the conflict will not sprawl into the next decade like most civil wars tend to do, the victorious side will stand upon nothing but a pile of ashes. Weakened, Equestria will fall prey to its neighbours - the Changelings and the communists. We did the right thing to leave when we did.

The Horrors of War
The Equestrian army is running out of ponies to send to the meat-grinder. Conscription has just been approved by the monarchy, and disturbing images of officers lining up fresh recruits forced into their uniforms has filled this week's news. Let the ponies of Las Pegasus know that if we go back, their future will be one as a conscripted soldier on the receiving end of front-line fire.
|
|
|
The Impending Crash
Grim reports come from the Equestrian stock exchange in Canterlot. Economists predict sharp decreases in the kingdom's economy, with most of their working-age ponies conscripted and with Nightmare Moon's legions ravaging their country. Las Pegasus, on the other hoof, is currently undergoing a period of stable growth as citizens are gaining trust in the nation.
|
|
|
The Condemnation of Tyranny
There's already rumours that secret police patrols the streets of Canterlot. That conversations all over Equestria are wiretapped. All suspected Nightmare Moon supporters have been secretly arrested.. It was expected that, with war knocking on the capital's door, Equestria would grow more tyrannical, but never so suddenly. We must denounce the new supremacist elements in government.
|
||
Checkmate
The mugshots of arrested communist radicals are proudly on display in our police stations. The remnants of the monarchists are barely scrounging up money for their headquarters' electricity bills. The PCA only has a hoofful of disgraced members left. In the perfumed silence of Mayor Rokenhar's office, he opens a bottle of champagne, to celebrate a Great Game fairly won.
|
|
|
A Leftwards Wink
There exist factions vying for control in Las Pegasus' shadows. Communist firebrands of the revolution, monarchist high society, radical puritans dabbling with fascism. Mayor Rokenhar plans to play puppet-master to destroy the opposition in its infancy. And rather than get his hooves dirty, he can simply get them to fight each other. The disorganized communists will be easy to manipulate...
|
||
A Blow to the Crown
Left-leaning, red-clad communist firebrands all over the city gather on their soap boxes to chant for the downfall of the bourgeois, declare that Las Pegasus will never see royalty on any throne. Where did they get those megaphones? Their shiny brass buttoned suits? Their polished boots? Mayor Rokenhar grins seeing the approval rating of the monarchist party slowly decline...
|
||
A Leftwards Nudge
Materials for their work, secretly delivered to the city's communists; a red suitcase full of monarchist supporters' names; a crate of small-arms; several letters of cold cash. All of the pieces of a satisfying puzzle... now, lean back and see it solve itself; hope that no word of it gets out - that'd be a spanner thrown right into the works.
|
||
The Fascist Downfall
On the alleys frequented by PCA speakers, communist agitators begin to set their soapboxes. At every far-right rally, there's always a far-left counter-protest. Every fascist hate-crime is met with an equally brutal communist counter-attack, the police never batting an eye. The PCA slowly loses favour, as claimed by the latest polls. The plan is going exactly as intended.
|
|
|
Weapons for the Working People
Caches of combat knives, batons, concealable pistols and instructions for the creation of pipe-bombs and other explosive devices have been hidden throughout the city at different locations. Coded letters and ciphers describing their exact locations have been mailed to the leaders of the reds. Within mere days, PCA and monarchist speakers have learned to steer clear of known communist hot-spots.
|
||
Lift The Ban on Public Meetings
With the constant threat of yet another city-burning riot, the government outlawed the practice of public meetings comprised of more than three people sometime ago. Lifting this ban would further encourage the spread of political chaos, and further our plans to crush the opposition.
|
||
More Fuel for the Fire
Secret footage of worker mistreatment captured in numerous high-profile companies and factories has been declassified. Rolls of film containing scenes of abuse ranging from unsanitary conditions to mutilation and documents describing poor pay and treatment of workers have been secretly given to the reds. The scenes depicted have begun appearing in communist propaganda films.
|
||
Leak the Militia's Plans
The PCA possesses a militia force comprised largely of far-right radical volunteers. They wield bats, knives and pitchforks, and frequently patrol the alleys of the city, leaving battered, bruised and occasionally dead communist sympathizers in their wake. The police has managed to compile a comprehensive chart of their patrol routes, and we shall see that it falls in the hooves of the reds, to help them avoid confrontation.
|
||
Starry Plough's Release
Starry Plough, the "Firebrand of the Revolution", after being incarcerated at the onset of independence, has been granted a full pardon by Mayor Rokenhar. Prison wardens were instructed to release him from Forhorn Prison at midnight. Red attacks on fascist and monarchist rallies are expected to grow tenfold. Soon, tensions will reach a breaking point in Las Pegasus.
|
||
Dabbling with the PCA
There exist factions vying for control in Las Pegasus' shadows. Communist firebrands of the revolution, monarchist high society, radical puritans embracing fascism. Mayor Rokenhar plans to play puppet-master, to destroy the opposition in its infancy. Rather than get his hooves dirty, he can simply get them to fight each other. The PCA is infamous for its extreme views - a perfect puppet.
|
||
Red Scare
Hospitals city-wide are reporting cases of communist speakers arriving with wounds after beatings by gangs of PCA supporters wielding a wide array of contraband weaponry (wink.). The police, however, has been instructed to remain silent. With red speakers growing wary of fascist lynching, communist popularity is fading. Let us hope word of our involvement doesn't get out.
|
|
|
Pine Chest's Conspiracy
The leader of the PCA is the target of moderate critique due to his insane theories and conspiracies. Of course they are nothing but the tirades of a madman, but creating false evidence for some of them could help us in the long term. The ones claiming Celestia a communist sympathiser for her reluctance to crush Stalliongrad could become a heavy blow to both reds and monarchists.
|
|
|
Allies in the News
Many wealthy news labels reside within Las Pegasus, and the people benefit from a wide variety of different papers. For a sum of money, many of the owners of the newspapers would have no problem with altering the truth ever so slightly, to make sure support for Mayor Rokenhar's regime rises and sympathy for Equestria lowers.
|
||
Allow the PCA to Rally
Ever since their party rose to power, fascist sympathizers within the PCA have been itching to hold an organized march through the city as a show of force, to prove their better, more robust command structure compared to the communists. Allowing them to hold a rally will more than likely greatly impact red morale.
|
||
Strengthening Our Position
The ink on Las Pegasus' constitution is still wet, and with the situation currently so chaotic, there's nothing stopping us from expanding the powers of our most loyal asset - the Metropolitan Police Force. A few extra privileges, rights and capabilities can go a long way in securing Mayor Rokenhar's position, and also in bringing order to Las Pegasus.
|
||
Gentle Encouragement
Communists throughout the city, in the wake of harsh battles fought in Las Pegasus' darker corners, have converted several abandoned warehouses into makeshift prisons for captured PCA fighters. Unbeknownst to them, the mayor has agents and informants everywhere. Leaking the locations of these prisons to the PCA could further encourage raids and violence.
|
|
|
Ban Worker Strikes
In spite of all of their armaments and fiery passion, the communists' biggest weapon against Las Pegasus were strikes. Industry has ground to a standstill, and the factory overseers and PCA economists are furious. Fortunately for them, a quick footnote added to the lawbook is all we must do to ensure a strikeless future. This will not only weaken the reds, but secure support from the industrial big-leagues.
|
||
The Blackhooves
Pine Chest has been rambling for the better part of Las Pegasus' existence about the strength of his elite forces in Waffleland. His only problem was the government holding him back from establishing his long-desired paramilitary. Until now. With a subtle nod from Mayor Rokenhar, the PCA will get the go-ahead to ship in a trainful of elite soldiers for their new militia. The Blackhooves.
|
||
The Battle on the Big Boulevard
With loyalist agents well-rooted in the political activities of our enemies and with the communists and PCA having grown bloated with the support we've secretly offered, tensions in Las Pegasus are reaching a boiling point. Though confrontation seems inevitable, Mayor Rokenhar has ordered the police to stand down. Loyalist blood will not be shed in the battle - our enemies shall kill each other.

No Part Gone To Waste
Though our industry is fairly well-developed, we have limited access to certain rare metals needed for tank factories. We must implement a thoroughgoing salvage campaign, repurposing not only old or destroyed tanks but tractors, planes, and any form of civilian vehicle that we can, to ensure that our Armor production need not slow down.

The Pony of the Future
There shall be no I, but the We. The Pony of the Future shall be one that will gladly work for the Revolution and lay down their life in the fight against the reactionaries. The Ponies will all march as one against the reactionaries, against those that seek to shatter the revolution.

The Grand Protector
The greatest threat to our great city is Celestia and her agents of chaos, the TUC. They conspire to keep our people starving and to drag us back into her claws, but the Generalissimo will not falter! We will not die in a war between the Demon and the Communist! The PCA will protect us! Pine Chest shall lead us! |

Operation Raspberry
Every day that passes, ponies suffer more under Celestia's grip. We are free, but so many others are not. We owe it to those left behind, to those who die in the conspiracy of the two sisters, to save their families before they too perish. So, as they said in the Battle for Las Pegasus, once more into the breach!
|
| |
| ||
| ||
Rockville Tea
Rockville is home to a few oil fields, not many to be honest, but when the south rose they took the fields in the San Palomino desert with them. If we were to take Rockville all the communists will have left is Whinnysota, starving them of oil and increasing our influence at the same time.
|
| |
| ||
Storm the Fields
The belt of Equestria is responsible for supplying the entire nation with wheat, oats, and grain in general. The communists deserve to feel the same bite of hunger that stole the lives of countless mares, stallions and foals in our fair city. They brought the famine on us, now we will return the favor. It will not be enough to topple the Tyrant, but it will be one of the first of a thousand cuts.
|
| |
| ||
To Live or Die in Dixie
When the south first rose, we saw in them a potential friend. A people who valued the same things we did, money and liberty from the Tyrant's grasp. However there have been whispers of a growing movement. A sizeable number of their population are pushing to return to Celestia. To return to their chains. We can not allow this to happen. Those that wish to die for communism will have a chance to do so. |
|
|
The Unbroken State
We have come far from the starving city that was our home. Our borders are now vast and our people strong. So come Tyrant, bring all that you can! You should have killed us when you had the chance, for now we come for you. The blood of our sons and daughters are on your hooves, there will be no surrender, no mercy asked or offered, until you have been taken to task for your crimes. |

Citizen Heroes
There are still some who see the PCA as thugs, rather than the champions of the people they are. We must teach them the truth and save them from the lies of communists. Those who refuse to see the truth must be agents sent by Celestia to sew distrust amongst our people. The PCA are heroes and will be treated as such.

The Horse Always Wins
After so many fools kept trying to kill each other in their feeble attempts to jockey for power, I ended up the victor. Their gambles for power were bold but they needed more than that to win. My victory was achieved through a gamble backed by pure skill and strategy in contrast, and now it's time for Las Pegasus to be awaken under my rule as a true fighting force unparallelled in technology and modern marvel.

Open the Food Vaults
In order to gain more support from the populace, the food vaults need to be open for the masses to finally get a craving of actual stability and order. Once their mouths are fed, they are less likely to dissent and cause chaos as a whole. Plus, they will be more willing to support my plans for Las Pegasus.
|
||
Take Control of the City
It's time to end the chaos. Fascists, communists, the ilk from Rokenkhar's gang of misfits, and loyalists from the outdated monarchy of Equestria all must go. My forces will secure the city from all of them through rapid force and restore order to a town ruined by ignorant politicians and useless thugs.
|
||
Recruit the Gangs
Even with our current numbers, the various gangs within the cities will be very useful in pacifying the city and bringing a semblance of old world reality that the commoners can understand. The White Hoof Society, Chairponies, and Neighmertas will be extremely useful in bringing an old element of pre-war crime back to the city while providing a buffer for my main army.
|
||
Ring a Ding Ding
With peace and order established, it is time I establish Las Pegasus as the city of progress and prosperity. I will first re-establish our casinos with the gangs leading them to remind the masses of their comforts they will receive again. Then I will put my security within the city to enforce order. Finally I will make sure to calm the people themselves and reassure them that things will get better under my rule.
|
||
Technocratic Rule
With my enemies defeated, and order restored in my city, I can now make Las Pegasus a shining beacon of progress, technology, science, and prosperity. Instead of the thuggishness of fascist rule, the radical destructiveness of communism, or broken squabbling ineffectiveness of harmonic democracy, it will be the true strength of technocracy that will reign. The intelligent elite will rule and it will be ruled by science and logic.
|
| |
Scientific Management
Politicians are useless and corrupted too much by moronic ambition. Instead, we will have various scientists lead not only the various research and industrial sectors of our nation, we will also have scientists lead each province and bureau of our new city through their scientific qualifications. The new management will make sure Las Pegasus and its surrounding areas are running smoothly.
|
||
A Little Bit of Everything
Las Pegasus needs every resource it can for progress. From the most minor scraps of metals to the largest of industrial leftovers, it must be recycled. We will maximise the use of our resources and end up getting more resource production to strengthen our economic and industrial power.
|
||
Underground Factories
Las Pegasus has limited space for industrial expansion on the ground. This problem is coupled with the vulnerability of our concentrated factories, so now I will have my company create new factories underground. These factories will keep a small amount of industry safe from bombs when war eventually hits Las Pegasus.
|
||
Overwhelming Force
My army must rely upon overwhelming firepower to win the day. War is not fought by merely plans or bodies, but by the best and most powerful weaponry to face the earth. It's time my army is reflected by that doctrine and will focus on pummeling my enemies with technological power.
|
| |
| ||
| ||
| ||
| ||
| ||
The Fate of Democracies
As it is seen through the window, Democracies are inefficient failures that will collapse in any sign of strife. The southern confederacy is no exception, if anything, a bigger insult as they hold onto pathetic traditions to impede progress. It's time to bring these yokels into the future.

Bulging Eyed Fanatics
Anarchists, communists, they are both the same. Just ignorant spoiled children thinking they know what it takes to run an economy, to create their tiny vision for the subjugated city of a once great Baltimare. It's time to bring civilization back to Baltimare and adults back to work.

Outlived Her Usefulness
Despite the moronic militarism of the Changelings, they helped many Equestrians wake up to the failures of harmony, made them change, and helped distract them from putting their attention on me. They aren't useful to me anymore though so the Changelings must be squashed too like the insects they are.
|
| |
A Useless Experiment
One of the most useless and fruitless experiments ever created by hoof, the ideology of Marks claimed to be the savior of the poor but in the end, that ideology only kept them ignorant and backwards. It's time to liberate Stalliongrad for the sake of progress and upwards mobility.
|
| |
Ten Years, You Won't Recognize Equestria
The entire war is over. We have won. Harmony has died, Communism has died, and Fascism has died. It's time for the age of Technocracy to begin. The lands of Equus will be known as land of true progress and prosperity for all ponykind. It will be the epitome of civilization for all the world to know.
|
|
|
Subdue the PCA
WIth the use of these pointlessly brutish thugs having ended, it is time that this toxic faction gets put down for good. Their toxic ideology could possible ruin my plans for Las Pegasus and prevent progress for the city. We will hit every single part of the organization. From head, to toe.
|
||
Infiltrate the Lower Ranks
Some more of my agents will be sent out to infiltrate the PCA paramilitary brigades. My infilitrators will be able to cause chaos and break up each of these brigades through subterfuge and sowing divisions. The breaking of the lower ranks will make sure the organization is weaker.
|
||
Dirty Laundry
The PCA loves to tout itself as an organization fighting for the moral core of Las Pegasus. Ha! That's a sad lie. I will make sure to showcase all the atorcious actions the PCA did and make sure the public knows how hypocritcal they are in their "patriotism". We have enough dirty laundry for their support to evaporate.
|
||
The Threat Contained
Pine Chest is gone, the PCA lower ranks is in chaos, and public support for the PCA has evaporated. Overall, I have succeeded in dismantling the PCA and leaving it in shambles and disarray. With the threat of the PCA gone, the people can finally start focusing on my vision that I have for Las Pegasus for its progress.
