It's been two years since the war began in the north. Two years of being pushed back, kilometer by kilometer, across Equestrian soil. The nation runs short of qualified ponies fit to lead her masses, and casts her net ever wider in search of bodies for the furnaces of war.
Summer Meadows, the youngest daughter of a venerable unicorn house, is pulled from her officer training early and sent to the front to be a tank commander. She is, of course, excited at the prospect of serving her country and her princess at last, but there is one small problem: she doesn't know the first thing about being a tanker...
Join Summer and the rest of her scrappy tank crew in their own individual adventures as they battle the enemy, and sometimes each other, to defend the nation they call home.

This is a tank crew ensemble story set in a world in which Equestria finds itself in a losing war with a power-hungry neighbor, using hardware loosely based on the Second World War. It combines two things I love: ponies and tanks, in a never-before-seen kind of pony war story.
Tagging information:
-Death & Violence tags are both very self-explanatory. This is a war story.
-Gore tag because, in war, legs get blown off sometimes, and that's just how it is. There is neither revelry nor glory in it, it just happens.
-Narcotics tag because cigarettes are an essential piece of the early 20th century soldier's diet, and it wouldn't be a proper war story without them.
-Sex tag for innuendo and shaded reference, not for the actual act nor even the direct mention of it ever occurring. While it unavoidably happens in a co-ed army, we still run a family-friendly ship around here. Or tank, I suppose.
