Patch 1.6 called Sundered South is a major update, released on 2019-08-17 with checksum 526c. It focuses on nations around Equestria that has experienced a civil war, adding content for Las Pegasus and Crystal Empire puppeted by Lunar Empire, as well as reworking the Confederation of Southern States and nations in the Equestrian South-East sans Celestial State.

As usual, this patch was distributed primarily through Steam Workshop (which was moved to a new account with patch 1.5.1) and supplemented by ModDB. The original 1.6 release is no longer downloadable from ModDB, as it was overwritten by each subsequent patch until version 1.6.2.2.

Introduction

Chaos reigns in Equestria. Nightmare Moon has returned and in the rural and inhospitable lands down south information about what exactly transpired is sparse and open to interpretation. However, as civil war rages up north, down south fringe movements are cast into the spotlight as Equestrian power disappears from the region overnight.

In the South-West the call for independence, once a fringe movement, has manifested itself. The Confederacy of Southern States now has the task to forge a national identity while many still yearn to rejoin Equestria. Powerful business interests in Las Pegasus have forced the city to follow the Confederacy’s example and secede, much against the wishes of the common ponies. Now the mayor faces a struggle to keep Las Pegasus neutral and to prevent radicals from taking over the gem of the west coast.

Meanwhile, in the jungles of the east, the ancient homeland of the batponies, many have rallied to support the Empress of the Night. As Stars Whirl rallies her military and irregular assets to sweep across the jungles, they find more than the forces of Equestria opposing them. Doctor Caballeron, famed archaeologist, has used his sizable wealth to help the natives of the land they call Aztlan against the radical lunarists. Further north, Baltimare, the biggest city in the South East, has risen up in revolution. Without Equestria to protect them, Golden Delicious rallied the workers to defend themselves. But the socialists are deeply divided even as they fight the common threats around them, and it is uncertain if they can maintain a united front.

As the battles go on in the populous north of Equestria, the warring alicorns are temporarily distracted from the fighting on the fringes of what was once the most powerful nation on the planet. But the emergent nations are small and rife with their own issues. Will these new states fall to whoever wins the civil war, or will they manage to unite the Sundered South?
