    After Princess Cadence is kidnapped by changelings in the middle of the night and they threaten to kill her unless given "food". Celestia decides to get her elite team to rescue her. She sends the mane 6 along with the Wonderbolts as back up. From there they embark on a dangerious as hell mission, but they have plenty of back up to help them achieve this incredibly sketchy as hell Operation.

    This is based mostly off the game ARMA 2 at least the idea was from it.

    Also final note- if you want to suggest the loadout for each of the mane 6 (and also the Wonderbolts) go nuts. Just know that all the guns will have to be from ARMA 2 or ARMA 2 Operation Arrowhead.

    Well...

    There are minor errors scattered throughout. Proofreading is suggested.

    Most of it doesn't make much sense with established canon. They don't have planes, they don't have firearms, the Wonderbolts aren't pilots and none of the Mane 6 seem to want to be there, much less with each other. They seem rough and crude, quite OOC.

    It looks like you just put ponies in the place of humans with human technology.

    While we're on that, if you wanted to airdrop a tank without a runway to use, you'd use a 15 tonne Sheridan. Not the 70 tonne Abrams.

    What bothered me most was the mention of "The fourth of July". Equestria doesn't have a Fourth of July, at least, not one that induces special mention.

    Um... okay

    A few errors grammar wise, but that isn't your issue.

    The actual story is.

    Now, I do not mine OOC ponies as long as there is a reason for it. Sometimes it works. In this fic, however, it does not. But, if you're seriously happy with it, stick with it.

    Best of luck!

    ARMA series = Great (especially DayZ)

    MLP:FiM = Great

    MLP:FiM + ARMA = Potential...but eh, I really didn't enjoy it. Didn't dislike though.

    >>1200514 Oh, I was talking about ArmA. I guess eagle scouts are the American equivalent of our Air Training Corps. I've been in both the ATC and Army Cadet Force, so I've done a fair bit of military stuff. Up to and including being chased through a field by MoD attack dogs.

    Dads also high up in the Sub service, so I get to go out on Trafalgar-class subs when I like. :twilightsmile: I also get to pilot them on fam visits.

    I like it, has great potential :rainbowdetermined2:

    Rainbow Dash complained as she got in the Abrams and strapped herself in. After a short while of nothing happening she got out and asked why they weren’t in the Abrams already.

    You're talinking the M1A1 Abrams ? How the f*ck can you air drop an Abrams in an undercover mission ?
