All dressed up

So THAT'S what Pinkie would look like in Trickster Mode.

Except her facial expression makes her look calmer than usual. Maybe that much energy puts her into a trance state...

Was there a Conversion Bureau topic I missed? other wise why are we speculating hypothetical scenarios of pony attack?

On the other hand, humans have much more devastating weapons, and the willingness and capacity to use them.

Let's face it, if we were involved in a genocidal war with a fictional equine species, we would pull out all the stops.

We were wondering whether an A-10 could kill the entire Equestrian Air Force.

Has anyone read Conversion Bureau? I haven't and apparently it is really bad for the reasons I am not familiar with.

#329730 Mio Thu, 17th Jan '13 5:37:04 PM

I see that. Any reason why? Or is it just lulz?

It involves a lot of wish fulfillment and misanthropy. Beyond that I really can't speak specifics.

Wub :3

Pegasi pretty much dominate the air anyways.

I believe the term, Steve, is "Taxi". Its been a while since I've been intimately familiar with aviation, though...

What the A-10 lacks in air-to-air capabilities it makes up for in Can't-Fucking-Killness. It is the Implacable Plane. I'm sure lightning bolts would only serve to make it flinch at most.

You there! Check out my Youtube Channel! The power of Ponies compel you!

Haven't read The Conversion Bureau. From what I've heard, it sounds like the entire conflict depends on the universe declaring that Humans Are the Real Monsters, or on the show's cast acting out-of-character to claim that Humans Are The Real Monsters.

If we ended up in Equestria, would we gain the cartoon physics? It makes a difference.

@Mio - Just for fun.

@Meta Four - Ah, I see.

@Calnos - As much as I hate to admit that, I have to say that the pegasi have the advantage. Lightning won't do much, but turbulent air will.

@Calnos: Only if it can recover from being picked up by a ponymade windstorm and flung like a paper airplane while being battered by debris :V

@Meta: I've heard the same thing. Basically, the idea is that humans interact with ponies, ponies unanimously declare that Humans Are Bastards and start turning humans into ponies by force. This is portrayed as a good thing.

Considering sheer amounts of abuse it is reported to survive, it will most likely survive and recover from that too. It won't be destroyed, but it won't ever be able to put its weapons to good use.

Discussion about military aircraft and I missing it :I

Not fair.

Because he know I'm going to go out in this plane and I'm going to remove one of His creations from His universe.

@Applelight: I wouldn't hold out on it.

I can imagine Celestia and Luna talking about an incoming air attack.

"Luna! Look out there and tell me how many planes are there!"

"...All Of Them, sister."

I wouldn't say humans are monsters. Case and point; you guys.

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

#329743 Death Cloud Thu, 17th Jan '13 5:46:00 PM from Horsehead Nebula

Conversion Bureau? I heard mane fic is not that bad. There is not many antihuman racism in it. Bad thing are fanfic for that, especially from one author who practically have overtaken that setting.

Because he know I'm going to go out in this plane and I'm going to remove one of His creations from His universe.

#329748 Applelight Limited Thu, 17th Jan '13 5:47:14 PM from Manehattan to Canterlot

Well if we did, we'd have the same silly levels of strength and endurance, and that would make a level playing field.
