//------------------------------// // Nule and the Cronus Campaign // Story: PonyHammer 40,000: Magic of War II // by Dragon Heart //------------------------------// The Specter was a deadly beast, indeed. Many Pony Marines fell to the invisible beast's claws, but Hammerheart and his squad exterminated the monster like the insect it was, and headed back aboard the Ponigeddon. "Well done, Commander Hammerheart." said Pegalos. "These infiltrators destroy morale and make a stable defense impossible. Pegalos out." Rainbow Dash looked to Applejack and Hoovitus. "What was it like serving under Captain Nule in the Cronus Campaign?" She asked. "Cap'n Nule was probably the best tactician I have ever seen." said Applejack. "Victory was usually a certainty when he was in charge, and very few Blood Phoenixes died under his command." "Agreed." Hoovitus said, seconding the fact. "There were no fool's errands or pointless suicide missions when Captain Nule was in command. And few others could have brought together such a strong defense on Dolmaska with what he had to work with." Rainbow Dash sighed. "It weighs heavy on my conscience that we failed him on Dolmaska." "It weighs on all of us, Rainbow Dash." said Pinkie. "More heavily than you can know."
