OMG!! I love this story! Its so detailed! Love it, love, LOVE IT!!!!! :pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy:

Pretty good story, but you *seem* to have vastly underestimated the size of units in Supcom.
A light assault bot is around 8 meters tall, and as such its weapons are not going to be as described

enough to dent the chestplates if you were unlucky enough to get hit by one.

but more likely to flat out pulp a pony in a single hit.
Other than a few other issues with scale and such, it's a pretty good story.

4651814 I understand that, but if I were to actually size units the setup would be completely unfair. I mean, a single mech marine is bigger than those bots in Avatar, and an ACU stands at least a hundred meters. If they were to scale, what would there be to write about?

You took some creative liberties with size, yeah that's fine. But tbh it wouldn't really change much, if anything by scaling down the units it only gives the ponies false hope.
From my first glance at the story I some reason imagined that it was one faction [seraphim remnants?] attacking the ponies and that another faction would come in at the last second and be big damn heroes, something like what happens in Tiberian Eclipse. But I guess that'd be more suited to a full story than a one-shot, and what you've done works well as-is.

4653880 Eh, I might do so. Just seeing how the community would respond to my first one shot :twilightsheepish:

Lol, this was also pretty dang great. Depressing, but great!

Fletcher was always a blight to the UEF. There's a reason I enjoyed killing him.
Slowly...:pinkiecrazy:
And of course Maddox had to figure into this as well.
So we have everyone I....dislike. :ajsmug:

That said, well done fic!
Although, those are some big Pones :trollestia:

And the eleven 16" rounds a second only hitting like crossbow bolts? Daaaamn. :rainbowwild:

Ok, I'll stop being weird. To be fair, my own attempts at this have required size-shifting or no ACU, so I understand completely. :twilightblush:
It's hard to write for a universe whose smallest weapons are often considered nuclear. :ajbemused:

Still, great fic! I'd love to see more!
