It is the year 3070, and Mankind is once again at war. The battlefields of the future are dominated by fierce, robotic war machines known as BattleMechs, and under their auspice empires have risen and fell. Now with the worlds of the Inner Sphere once again facing the drums of war, two mercenary units have set off on their respective missions, their only tie a common ride upon the back of a JumpShip.

Yet when a cosmic accident causes a misjump, they find themselves thrown into a world that they cannot fathom: a world where magic is a force of nature, where mythical creatures live and thrive, and colorful ponies live protected under the aegis of their monarchs. New choices lie ahead, decisions must be made, and the inner character of Humankind will be put to the test when the question is asked: to conquer, or protect?

--------

It is the year 1023 after the ascension of Celestia and Luna to the dual thrones of Equestria, and Ponykind is at peace. With Luna cleansed and Discord sealed away even more thoroughly than before, all looks bright for the future of the colorful equines. With friendship and optimism, they face each day with hope and vigor.

Yet, when the heavens scream as a foreign object tears its way into their reality, the princesses and their subjects face a new threat that they cannot fathom: creatures and machines from a world of death and darkness, where magic is unheard of and the avarice of powerful men drive the engines of war to crush the innocent under their bootheels. Can they survive the coming of these coarse beings, and can they maintain the magic of friendship in the face of Man's Inhumanity?

A crossover with the Battletech universe, though this is an alternate BT timeline of my own devising. [WARNING: Fandom related material and fanboy rant to follow. Non-Battletech fans won't care, read at your own risk.]

Because **** the Word of Blake and their munch-tastic "armies from thin air" BS. Yes, I know the Clans were almost as bad, but at least they had some sort of justification in-universe. Wobbies? No. Just no. I don't care that it was 15 years, you don't go from "fringe group of mutually-antagonistic and argumentative sub-groups following various degrees of religious mania" to "WE ARE THE SPACE NAZIS ALL WILL BOW BEFORE US" like that.

So for BT fans, this is a 'verse where the Second Star League is still around, the Wobbies still had their temper tantrum though it was smaller and more in line with a bunch of religious fanatics. No stupid "knock everything down for ClickyTech" Wizkids/Fanpro approach, nor any "hey let's shove a bunch of cheesy Level 3 stuff at the players to make the game even more complicated" Catalyst Games stuff. This is just good ol' fashioned 'Mechs wailing on each other, only with ponies. Who will also be wailing on 'Mechs. GLORIOUS.

Death, as in the anthropomorphic personification of death, is lost. When His fateful steed Binky takes a misstep, Death is thrown off of His horse and into the Great Unknown. After seeing the inner working of the universe*, He falls into a pond. Upon fishing Himself out of said pond, Death finds Himself in a forest that feels more like a park than an actual forest. Death starts to ponder what type of planet He is on. If it was not a disc that is supported on the backs of four elephants which, in turn, stand on the back of a giant turtle. Then it could be a regular boring spherical shape planet. Death then travels to a near by village, which by then He is accosted a certain group of ponies.

*Which He has already ready seen. If you asked Him what it looks like, He would say it was blue.**

In the year 2745, humanity's grasp of the sciences has advanced to an almost unfathomable level. Sub-space matter transfer technology grants almost instant access to countless worlds across thousands of light years. These advanced machines are not without their limits. The vast energies which constantly course through them put immense strain on their inner workings, and it is your job as a highly trained maintenance tech to fix what breaks. On your way to a typical repair job things take a turn for the decidedly weird, and you suddenly find yourself thrown into a world both familiar and alien. Will you ever learn the cause of your displacement, or will you be forever subject to the whims of this strange new world?

One thing does become quickly apparent. The citizens of your new home are frightened to learn of your species' carnivorous ancestry, the signs of which are made painfully obvious with every toothy grin. What's a pony to do when these ancient surges of primal fear sow a quickly growing seed of carnal need? A tumultuous avalanche of the deliciously devious awaits.

(2nd Person Romance Story starring stoner "you" and Twilight Sparkle)

It was the night of the Harvest Moon Music Festival when you met Twilight Sparkle, a lovely mare, just after a little fun to offset all the stress in her life. You hit off really well with her and you can both feel a spark, but you wonder what you did wrong when you wake up in your hotel room with some missing memory and Twilight nowhere to be seen.

Author's Note: Alright people, let's get this out of the way. Clover. Yes, it is pretty much marijuana in my story. Coffeebean was the one who came up the concept and I'm using it for my story. It's not just there for fun, it will have an impact on relationships with multiple characters. Second off, this story will have a very sensitive matter at the heart of the story. I can't tell you what, simply because I hate spoiling a story. But remember when I said this is going to be an emotional rollercoaster? Think of one of those super coasters that have like sixty loops and spends half the time upside down. But I assure you, it will still feel like one of my stories, having happy, funny, sad, and romantic parts to it.

2022 REWRITE IN PROGRESS

After being rudely awoken from Cryo-sleep, John-117 finds that the Forward Unto Dawn has been sucked into a gravity well, causing it to fall towards an unknown planet. In the crash, he is separated from Cortana and falls alone into the Everfree forest. In addition to this new complication, old memories from a scarred and tragic past haunt his dreams, putting his remaining sanity on edge.

However, he has little time to ponder these thoughts, as he encounters the planet's... peculiar... inhabitants.

First 19 Chapters proofread by Bravo 539 and Shadownamesto.

Nine humans. Nine Mares. Normal Lives. That's all about to change!

This has nothing to do with Ponyfall. Please, don't confuse our story with that. This is just something we're doing for fun.

1000 years ago Nightmare Moon was banished to the moon for her envy, or so the story goes.

History is written by the victor, and in her current state Princess Luna doesn't remember the atrocities her sister committed in the name of Order and Perfection. But now, four ancient warriors who remember rise, and they have one mission, rewrite that history.

Commander Icarus Nightwing leads a team of the finest soldiers from the Old Republic to fight against the Tyrant Celestia, but it will not be easy. During the millennia they spent slumbering the Goddess has been consolidating her power. They need to be careful, infiltrate and hit when she is vulnerable.

The key is the Elements of Harmony, but how can Icarus convince the Loyal Rainbow Dash that her loyalty is blind, the Honest Apple Jack that her monarch has lied to her, or Celestia's faithful student Twilight Sparkle that her faith is misplaced?

The night is darkest just before the dawn, and its time for the eternal night to end, its time for freedom, its time for the New Luna Republic

Mark Fénix, a thirty-four year old man, as well as a builder and an admirer of art,finds himself falling through the Canterlot Castle roof after simply trying to flop onto his bed at night...although the forces of nature had something to do with this transition between planes. He'll have to wait at the castle before he can return home, but will he WANT to return home? Especially with the wonders that this new world holds.

Apparently, the one who made that work of art is called Moe, but I can't really reach his page.
