Yay! The Grimdark 6 is back! And now with Green skins!
Read through vol 1 in one day and just got started watching this.I wish you luck in your writing endevour and if i may ask. In the future could you make one of the grimdark 6 a imperial guardsman. Like say a Mordian or maybe a kriegsman. Just a thought.

It's a thought.
Okay the duel primarchs of the Alpha legion. I did not see that coming
9853446
No, I stated that they were using their fathers' names, it's just two Alpha Legionnaires.
9853740
Welp. I derped
9854218
It's all good. If the Alpha Legion tricks or confuses you, it means that they're doing their job right.
That vision with the emperor was pretty good one.Kudos good sir kudos.
9857240
Thanks. I was going to and fro about how greatly Aries could be effected by Sombra's magic, if at all. Glad to see I hit the right note.
Translation to 40k speech: He was fucking angry and had the wraith of the Emperorbehind every footstep. Sombras chance of survival dropping by the milisecond
9862292
Yes. Yes indeed.
drukhari not a lot of them in a story hope to see a flesh-sculptors (Haemonculi)
that was good to read

New chapter will be out next week. For this week, as my Author's Note states, I'll be posting an Alternate Ending to the series finale after the finale airs publicly. (so Sunday) Until then.
drukhari my second fev race after chaos
a sad waaagh for my boy
And by the end everyone thought: Well, shit.
They should just call him Lobo. Do I get my cookie now?
9933329
....I...can't find a flipping cookie emoji...I could've sworn this site had a flipping cookie enoji...oh well, at least it has this.

Eeyup.
Another wonderful chapter (with an evil cliffhanger ending). I had been wondering if you would bring up the spore thing. Most authors seem to either not know about it or ignore it, it's nice to see it acknowledged for once considering that cannonicaly it is one of the biggest issues when dealing with orks.
9933547
Yeah, the only thing I'm gonna ignore is the language barrier. It's just too big of a hassle, so I'm using Dawn of War logic for that one.
Luckily Ork spores can lay dormant for centuries in the absence of a Waaagh! So we don't have to worry about them right now.
Brilliantly solve problem of Aries loyalty
I could not help but here TTS emparor when i read him speaking.😅
9941763
Yeah, if I make any references to that series, it'll be the more serious scenes. (rare as they are) I'm trying to keep this as close to canon as possible. (for both franchises)
9941665
Thank you, it also solved the 'how do I introduce Discord without starting a war' problem that kept the Draconiquis sidelined last Volume.
Ya know, I was not expecting the Emperor to show up, but happy nonetheless, I’m glad that Aries won’t worry about being a heretic as much now
9944804
If you expected it, it wouldn't have been a Discord chapter.
At some point I'll see Aries saying 'I am done with this shit'. I just have to wait.
Yea not possible, even simplest firearms are quite complex. Taking consideration all the hydraulics of artillery, gas pull back of rifles. Or wiring and programs of war machines. They simply do not have tech level to design that level of weapons. And facilities to build them would need to be massive. Ammunition is expensive alone and require massive factories. And by designing weapons from out look only without knowledge of machines inner workings, would make such work impossible.
9949662
Well, even ignoring the fact that Equestria has developed modern technology within more urban areas (Manhattan, Las Pegasus) the fact Pinkie Pie's Party Cannons (and her new Party Bazooka) exist, plus the fact that Rainbow Dash named her turtle Tank (implying that Equestrians know what tanks are) does imply that they understand the concept and just never use it.
Also, I'm kinda gonna throw in a bit of a Deux Ex Machina at the end of this Volume/beginning of the next, and it's a not an mlp Ex Machina, it's a 40k one.
9949708
The word "Tank" does not automatically mean tracked armored vehicle. It was a code word for germans spies in world war 1 to code phrase to "water tank", to mask their real purpose. Therefore she would not mean actual tracked vehicle but a container that holds liquid. Pinkies party cannon would not be the same as howitzers, their shells would not be the same as cannon balls. There is a difference between cannon of thous after industrial revolution.
9949730
There are times when I wonder if you even watch My Little Pony.
Rainbow Dash named him Tank because he was 'like a tank'. And I genuinely doubt she meant a water tank, considering the context.
But, I digress. I mentioned in the Author's we wouldn't see much of it this volume. In fact, we'll hardly see anything next volume. But Aries is going to give them the gist of what humanity learned through centuries of trial and error. Cartridges over muzzle-fed, rifling, they will start with bolt action and go from there.
One thing I'm considering is that instead of using gun powder, they use magical energy that's sealed in a wax cartridge built around the bullet head, and when the firing pin breaks the wax, the magical energy is released and follows the same physics as an explosion.
9950447
Well they could have a idea similar to the one that of leonardo da vincis tank switch barely could pass as one.
And what comes to Aries telling about humanities history would be difficult because most of that is lost from imperial records.
And what comes to legionairs tactics during the heresy is not really something that ponies could really copy.
Like the times when legionaries used breaching shields to form shield walls like thous of the imperial fists. Or massive drop pod assaults of the blood angels. Or massive formed bike charges of the white scars. And what comes to the guard well some times like volley fire have worked against something like savage orks when done by iron guard. Or vostroyans masterful urban warfare. All have their own way of seeing how warfare must be done.
It would be up to ponies come up with their own tactics and their own weapons to supplement their strengths and weaknesses. But no matter how much they prepare, no tactic holds after first contact.
And if they really start to militarize. Then it would be interesting when they see that their once perfect state comes to some form of police state. Asking "what have they become" moments.

Oh yeah, that's coming up in this Volume's finale. I'm going to do something mean to Twilight.
9979728
Glad you're enjoying the ride.
YOU sir have done what I always wanted in a Warhammer 40K crossover; Discord Chatting with the Emperor.
Thank you SO MUCH!
9995063
I ain't done yet.
Imperial Guard in the house with what sounds like a BANEBLADE!!!
Damn this story is frickin amazing. I can honestly see a ork waaagh now forming to defend not only equestria but all of friendship.
9996562
Yep. It's a Baneblade. Power Armor's for pussies.
9996623
Something similar will happen later. But later, in this instance, means 3-5 Volumes from now. I plan to be writing this story for years.
I wouldn't call this chapter a filler, but a good introduction-to-the-character chapter.
Setting the sanctuary on fire might be a good idea. A single Ork is one thing. But a bunch of them? That sounds dangerous both to the ecosystem, and to the people.
10132884
Fortunately, Ork spores can lay dormant for centuries in the absence of a WAAAGH! So they have plenty of time to figure something out.
Ponies with mini bolters and maybe magically enchanted power armor.
10173481
That is close to what I was thinking. The only thing I got cemented right now is that contained Unicorn magic will act as the main propellant for their bullets. Everything else is still in the works.
*appaluds the use of imperial guard*
and suddenly we have Emps. yay!
