A modern Equestria is faced with problems both inside and outside the country, namely an upstart warlord, a plot against the Elements, and a rapidly changing social climate.
3291548 (HE) High Explosive ammunition is expensive to produce and use in field, so normally if spread amongst the troops they would have only one clip of the ammo on person for the mission. and the compound would have only one crate of HE ammunition.
I'm guessing the antimagic munitions are rare because the weapon they were using to make them was stolen by the equestrians?
3351277 There is going to be an explanation for the explosiveness of the chase scene, and it's going to invole a certain pink mare. Also, there are more disrupters to come around. The one that was used agains Dash was a prototype.
3351951 well, the best way to counter an enemy is to render their advantage either obsolete or at least meet it with Equal force. and the gryphons just gave the Equestrian's their best advantage against the princesses, also Twilight has a counter spell that can be implanted into a machine that can then be used to help the equestrian soldiers that have been hit by the 'Disruptor' weapon.
Though, things may not be as straightforward once the ball actually gets rolling. The griffons have more experience fighting an actual war and a larger military, among others.
That and the princesses have a big secret.
In any case, this is all I'll be saying for now lest I spoil things.
3352016 well if the manehatten project is what I think it is, the gryphons really don't have an advantage of military for long. I mean, Gun's VS Nukes... not really a comparison. also, Give Twi a few Idea's on how to produce Electric Equipment that doesn't require magic, and can be formed into either a ball of plasma or a energy/kenetic barrier, the gryphons will be facing an entirely new ball game of difficulty.
3352032 Plasma spells are actually planned to appear in the story quite soon. ;)
Manehattan project is non-nuclear in nature though. But FRIENDSHIP is a key component.
Also, a note on the counter spell: it takes a long time to prepare mentally for in most cases, and the energy draw is dependent on how much magical potential was taken away in the first place. Twilight is a special case since she has a lot of raw potential. I'll elaborate on this in either a blog or a chapter.
Also, nonmagical, and mostly nonmagical electronics are already in the story, and are widely used. The Equestrian military is just fond of its Etheric reactors.
I'm going to take a stab and say it's Spike.
The High-Priest?

Don't most militaries have exploding bullets? In any case, antimagic munitions are somewhat rare.

Also, thanks for the fave!
3351668 ah you're welcome. also the Equestrians can make more disruptors from the prototype.

You're getting awfully close to something. *winkwink*

Other than that...
Why you follow me?

As for the follow: It's something I usually do.
