Ponies

By Cununculus, in X-Wing Off-Topic

Great, now I want a Leberkäse roll

Shinning armor and spike were really good this episode.

I was also surprised how much I liked Glimglam

Wow, it's an actual for realsies thread about MLP... :I

Yup, some day FFG will make a MLP:FIM game using the rules for X-Wing. Princess Luna is pilot skill 10 ;)
Luna is at best an 8, while Dash is a 10 and Twilight a PS 2.

Yeah Twilights ps would be low. I know Dashy is a great stunt flyer and shes really fast, but i have to give Luna ps 10 because when she fights she reminds me of Roy Fokker how well she dog fights while using her magic laser beam. You see her fighting like Roy in "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep.

I will say that alternate Sombra Universe Rainbow Dash could be 9-10. Funny thing is in that univerese her hair style makes her look like Roy Fokker. Cant escape the 80s!!!!!! The should play the (15th squadron) musical piece from Robotech when we see her fighting Sombras slave legions of Zentradie... errr Ponies.

Shinning armor and spike were really good this episode.

Me too, we also technically got more Celestia content in this one episode than possibly all of season 5. I am happy she is back. I am curious though how they came into being or if Celestia and Luna were lying too Twilight when they told her that Alicorn births are a mystery to them.

Rarity is best Pinkie. ;)

Rarity is best Pinkie. ;)

I wonder what Rarity would be like if she was pretending to be Pinkie after drinking 50 Surges, had next to unsafe adrenaline shots, next to unsafe yellow jackets and speed balls. Hell I guess I would want to see her do this with nothing but unsafe dosses of everything mentioned XD Just so long as Twilight could magically DE-toxic her, I don't want her dead after all, just so crazy that she could outdo Pinkie, William Shatner, Jim Carry, Robin William combined!

At first I kinda thought this wasn't gonna be that great, but the parts with Bulk... I haven't laughed hard in a long time! It was a good episode although not as good as I was hoping but better than I was fearing.

Todays episode WAS AWESOME, tied for first place for me out of season 6... I was very concerned, in a good way, about what was going to happen and if Spike was going to go away.

We got a new enemy, before hand he was just bad but now he is a serious threat to Equestria. I love how one dragon is like "I will steal all the ponies pillows because we have to sleep on rocks," and then this guy is like "I will take what I want and BURN THE REST." One only wants pillows, the other is going to try and murder everything in Equestria, heck he tries murdering characters in this episode, although it is somewhat hinted at.

Dragons are just BAD *** I love how they all wear heavy plates of Armour. Makes me wonder what the Dragon army was like that Luna fought. I also like the style, very SKYLANDERs looking. I bet you anything Spike it the younger brother of Spyro XD

Not bad, but I prefer changelings. dragons are just a bit to anoying fratboys to be really bad and evil.

Haha! Basketholder-zoned! :D

I love Rarity's hard hat!

Twilight goes off on about hows she wants to study dragon culture (oh, and help Spike!) and Celestia and Luna look at her like "seriously?" That made me laugh.

Yup Ember would make a cool skylander fig!

Of course any time I hear "Ember" I think of her:

One nitpick tough: Twilight has gone solo against Tirek and now she's backing away from Garble?

Dr. Wolf pointed out something interesting, only the youngling Dragons showed up, which could indicate that there more than one Dragon nation, other wise I believe the ones seen in other episodes that are as big as the Lord Dragon himself would have curbed all the teenage dragons.

I would have to say this is likely since Luna fought an Army of Mountain Dragons, in a comic we see Spike reading about Ice Dragons, and in another story Twilight has a book on half-dragon creatures.

Please don't hate me... I have no idear who the chick is with the geeeetar. But I think shes calling out Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Daydream Shimmer to cut some heads. Oh that's fancy Kentucky speak for guitar solo competitions. =]

I love Rarity's hard hat!

So did the BATS, they go batty for Rare things! ;) I just wish they would do something, I think Rarity and Spike should tell each other how they feel and just complete each other. I think Rarity was a wee bit jealous seeing Spike get along very well with Princess Ember. BTW she is the seconded woman dragon Spike has run into, the other was in a comic. They met because of Luna, although he appeared to crush harder on her than Ember. Funny thing to note, she was drawn to have the same exact features as Spyro, except she has long hair and is brown... I guess just like in d&d, Dragons are warm blooded Reptiles...?

Twilight goes off on about hows she wants to study dragon culture (oh, and help Spike!) and Celestia and Luna look at her like "seriously?" That made me laugh.

They had a physic conversation and their was a deleted scene taking place at the same time.

Celestia: You still haven't fully learned what it means to be a Princess, a Princess of Friendship!

Twilight: But I have already learned so much! I have to go help Spike and teach the Dragons the Magic of true Friendship.

Luna: Tis your unrefined Magical talents the Dragon Lord truly desires, that is why Spike is called to his Dark lands to suffer.

Twilight: So I should let Spike go on his own and possible get hurt, even die?!

Celestia: If you honor what Spike crusades for... YES.

Luna: We can not lose you... Likeith how my Sister lost me 1000 Moons ago. We lost are connection to the Elements, which our kingdom was vulnerable without.

Celestia: Only a fully trained Princess who fully truly learned the Magic of Friendship can stave off the darkness, save Spike, save Equstria. Without that understanding, anger, hatred, fear, can influence your actions, lead you on a path of Dark Magic, like King Sombra. You will become a Nightmare on this world, an agent of Disharmony.

Twilight:...

Celestia: You are my finest student, you are the Princess of Friendship. You have spread friendship too all in need of it, except your own closest friends, here and in the human world. You are not ready to do this Twilight Sparkle.

Twilight:...I am ready enough, I will not fail Spike... I will not fail you... I will not fail my friends again... I am leaving now before it gets too dark.

Celestia: ...

Luna: Don't give into despair, that is an element of Dark Magic.

Celestia: Mind everything we have taught you, save you and Spike it can.

Twilight: I will, and I will be back... I promise, and I love you Celestia. You are like a second mother to me.

Twilight flies off.

Celestia: She is irresponsible... brought paper and ink to write a book on dragons, with her gone matters are worse.

Luna: That Princess is our last hope to spread the magic of Friendship...

Celestia: NO, there is another....

Don Don Don Dooooon!

I think they should have a MLP standard and Dark starter pack. Standard comes with Celestia (light element), Applejack(life element), Rainbow Dash(Wind Element), Pinkie Pie(Earth Element), Fluttershy(life Element), Twilight(Magic Element), Spike(Magic Element), Rarity (Earth Element) and maybe Discord(Chaos Element)

The Dark Limited edition should come with Princess Luna(Dark Element), Tantibus(Dark Element), Nightmare Moon(Dark Element) Shadowbolts(three on one base / Dark Element), Giant Evil Spike(Magic Element), King Sombra (Death Element)

They could have some of the above come out as singles AND have a few more not in the set come out like Dr. Whooves(tech element) Derpy(Fire Element / via explosions) Gummy(Water Element) and so on.

One nitpick tough: Twilight has gone solo against Tirek and now she's backing away from Garble?

Well if we go by the Winter Moon novel, Celestia feels that she wouldnt take on Dragons unless she had the E.U.P. guard with her, hence why she was freaked when she found out Luna went after them with no army.

They may have some sort of natural powerful magic resistance and or the full plate Armour they ware is highly magic resistant. Also I will point out that it is possible the raw damage their fire can cause is worse than a lot of offensive magic spells...? I know it has to be hot, Dragon just lay down in lava like its nothing. Lava can be as hot as 1,250 degrees Celsius, though it is a bit cooler on the surface. So for their fire to be able to hurt one another its got to be super hot after a seconded of contact, or have some magical property that makes it lethal. And to be honest with you we see many different colored fire breaths in MLP from Dragons, I could be wrong but I bet they all have different magical effects, except red is just straight forward super hot...?

This is just conjuncture, but theirs a chance they could have wrecked Tirek, at least the Purple ones. They are all shown having Green fire, if teleportation is a common attribute of Green fire from Purple Dragons, they could have teleported parts of him away, to death. I wonder if he even attempted taking their magic from them, they are shown to be powerful, maybe the above is a reason why he didn't.

Or maybe he doesn't believe in Dragons lol

You know what, this thread needs some Renamon.

The chick with the guitar is (also named) Ember (Mclain) from Danny Phantom. Voiced by none other than Tara-Twilight Sparkle- Strong!

Also: Am I the only one who ships Spike/Fluttershy? :D

Speaking of Flutters...

Fluttershy_surprises_the_dragon_S1E07.pn

"So you have an army of dragons? You march them right back to the dragon lands, mister!"

Twilight is princess of CDO (It's like OCD but the letters are in the correct order. :D )

Great now I wanna see Twilight vs Tiamat (From the D&D cartoon )

I am torn, on one hand I don't believe she could stop and army of Dragons, before Luna showed up they were at war with Bat Ponies, and they weren't intimidating them into leaving, on the other hand "Dat Stare."

I think you have discovered the seasons 6 finally big bad. The Dragon we were talking about is given an Infinity stone as a gift for being nice, since the person giving it to them hasn't been hugged 80 years. Not only does he Grow up fast because of his greed, but the Infinity stone is the stone of Ultimate POOOOOOWER!

He is like, WE ARE GROOT , errr TIAMAT! Like STORIES TWILIGHT! YOU LIKE THE STORY OF FIRE AND ICE!? HERES A NEW ONE! THIS IS THE STORY OF YOUR DEATH ON FIRE, ICE, ACID, LIGHTNING, AND MORE ACID,

Green Head: Its toxic Gas

TIAMAT: NOBODY CARES, IT BURNS AND ITS GREEN, IT IS ACID, MORTAL KOMBAT SAITH SO!

Also why are Bat Ponies not part of the Kingdom?

The chick with the guitar is (also named) Ember (Mclain) from Danny Phantom. Voiced by none other than Tara-Twilight Sparkle- Strong!

Figures... Everyone is ether played by Tara or Wabitha St. Germain lol

Also: Am I the only one who ships Spike/Fluttershy?

Maybe, but apparently people are shiping Spike and Star glimmer.

That being said at the store today I saw a new Daring Do hardback Novel, its about some sort of flower that grants immortality, and her main baddy is after it. It looks good, I am tempted to read the 4-5 Daring Do novels they have out now.

Also in one of the newest comics I saw something I never thought I would see...

Get Ready

Rainbow Dash teams up and becomes friends with...

The Great and Powerful "Queen" Trixie!

Deleted Post.

Come to think of it, Flutters never did try her stare on the changelings. But let's not forget, she's BFFs with Q... err, I mean John Delancy.. I mean Discord!

It's a good thing Tirek tricked discord and absorbed his powers, otherwise that fight would be over real quick. ;)

discord-fingersnap-o.gif

Aaaaaand scratch one dragon army.

Now Discord isn't gonna save the mane six just like that, but of you mess with Fluttershy... hooooboy.

The only real way to counter that is pull a Star Glimmer and go back in time and eff em up there.

Great now I wanna see Star Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer and the Great & Powerfull Trixie team up.

The interesting thing about Discord is that his species name means Dragon-Horse. Because we see little of the Dragons it makes you wonder what they are capable of. If he really is a type of Dragon, could they have some of his aspects in abilities? Maybe something else? This might sound crazy but I wonder if he can just blink them from existence?

Its been awhile, was Discord even able to do anything Directly to Spike with his magic?

How far back in time do you think Star Glimmer would have to go to stop Discord? What if by effect of his chaotic nature he is younger in the future and more powerful and older in the past because he interacts with time-space differently?

Also I just saw what is probably the greatest mlp comic ever, and one of the best comics I ever read.

To sum it up, a long time ago a prototype Magic mirror was created, with this mirror it could be used to go to any alternate universe the user wanted to go. It had been sealed up for a 1000 years because of problems caused by universe jumping. In present pony times it was opened again, and Celestia is missing. Luna Recruits the Main 6 to go into the alternate universe and get Celestia back.

This story was different than all the other MLP comics I have red because most of them are just funny, with some drama. THIS COMIC however had great humor, an action packed plot, dark twists, suspense, and the most shocking of all, a great romantic story arc thrown into the mix.

I am not saying the other comics are bad, they have great stories, they are funny, they get you emotionally attached to the characters. They were just missing the action. Like the Princess Luna ones I have mentioned before, you only see what happens after the fight. Even the Winter Moon Novel somewhat suffers from this because one of the coolest battles I can think of in MLP, Luna fighting an army of Mountain Dragons, you only see she goes to fight them, and then you see she wins, you don't see how except for with one Dragon you see her shooting it in the chest, knocking it out, saving a Bat Pony from it.

In this story you see 90% of the battle, and its the most graphic I have seen in a official MLP story. It actually hurt to see when favorite characters got hurt, and they got hurt bad, it wasn't like they were slapped and then had to walk it off.

The ending was very bitter sweet. I think it is worth getting if you like comics.

The story is called MLP:FIM reflections part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4. You can get them individually OR you can get it in the My Little Pony Friendship is Magic Omnibus volume two.

You can get it hear from amazon

http://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Omnibus-Tp/dp/1631404091/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1461367860&sr=8-2-

fkmr0&keywords=my+little+pony+friendship+is+magic+omnibus+2

I am about to post major spoilers for this comic, so if you want to read it and be surprised by what happens in the story "DONT READ THE SPOILER". Also I will point out that the book is full of other MLP stories, two look good as well, where the hell did Rainbow Dash learn to fight so well with a Sword?!

Also I can't help but spoil a very minor detail, it wont affect your reading enjoyment if you read this. I swear the guards in the alternate universe look like Imperial Officer Ponies!!!

Seconded thought I don't have time right now to post spoilers. I will do it Monday!

You just had to do it... Now we will be seeing them together! :)

I KNEW IT! :D

Yay!

*fires partycanon*

I KNEW IT! :D

Yay!

*fires partycanon*

This was a pretty good episode, I was alittile worried not seeing Applejack and Rainbow Dash for a good while in the series, thought maybe Ashleigh Ball quit or something, anyway I liked this one a whole lot! It feels more authintic to the first couple seasons than some of the ones we have seen in Season 6, because Magic plays such an important part in it, and we are getting more Celestia! Although I was kinda shocked at how she acted in the episode.

Oh and I love the 3 new Amigos ;) I don't want to talk about it much more just in case someone hasen't seen it but I will give one spoiler.

Applejack has a stare too! Hers might result in a rumble-tussle lol Oh and I don't care how powerful Starlight Glimmer is, she made a Cake out of metal and ceramic plates, along with normal ingredients, I don't care if its the best tasting cake ever... I am not eating that!
