Rule 89

Domination of Equestria - T-15 days.
The Battle For Ponyville: 20:44

So this was what the bitch used to defeat me earlier today.
It’s an interesting device, a mass of antennas and arrays which supposedly generate the anti-magic field which utterly shut down my army and suppressed my superweapon.

Until we regrouped, switched to reactive shells and shot them all.
Well, most of them anyway. I don’t know where most of the Elements have gone but there’s pockets of resistance all over the battlefield. Fragmented divisions of Guard and Watch being mopped up all over the place.
Once we could use the Superweapon again the battle didn’t take long to turn into a bloodbath.

It felt really good to get revenge for that rout earlier this afternoon.

So we’re here and the instrument of that defeat is finally in my possession.
With this, I could walk into Canterlot and probably pimp slap the Princesses for hours.
So damn tempting.

Of course I’d need to figure out how it works first. Given Sparkle’s predilection for documentation though, that shouldn’t be too hard.

The ability to suppress all magic. No wonder she had been reluctant to use it. The ultimate double edged sword for a pony.

I wonder if I could reduce and or focus the field shape?

“Master?”
“Yes?”

“We’re ready to ship the package.”
“Excellent. Pack this up too and add it to the same security train.”

“As you command Master.”
“On second thought, make a second security train for this.”

“By your command Master.”
“Also get the commanders together. I need to go over the plan for storming Canterlot.”

“You don’t intend to use the anti-magic field?”
“Of course I do, but I’d always planned to use an army to do it, so it’s best to keep all the strings to your bow, rather than sacrifice any needlessly.”

“You are wise My Master.”
“Naturally.”

Overlord Rule No:89 After I capture the hero's superweapon, I will not immediately disband my legions and relax my guard because I believe whoever holds the weapon is unstoppable. After all, the hero held the weapon and I took it from him.
