Well at least Pegasus should be able have lightweight amour which keep them and the country safer plus it keep him safer.

I was thinking an alloy mail, possibly electroplated. Well, either that or an anti-magic treated pony gambeson/brigandine. I have a gambeson myself, and it's surprisingly good at stopping a blade (well, for slashing). Light weight, easy on the body, breathable, very pegasus friendly. To be honest, seeing them wear plate armor bothered me. The feels more like it should be kept for heavy ground ponies (earth ponies and unicorns if fighting on the front lines).

Considering they use magic for most things I'm not sure they have that ability but it would be a good idea. Though I do hope he keeps the weapons on the down low. Considering once that cat is out the bag it will be almost impossible to get back in. Its possible for magic to maybe pull it off depending upon the author.

Yeah, we aren't seeing AKs or anything like that in Equestria any time soon. The most that'll happen is what's shown in canon (though seriously, how are tanks canon. I can accept the party cannon easier). But, modifying current techniques and whatnot into forms that Equestria hasn't came upon yet, that's fair game.

I wouldn't mind expanding the fields of science just not the the ones that involve fighting more than absolutely necessary and the bare minimum at that. Considering the seeds of hate and greed are like weeds and will not be stopped easily.

Agreed. I have this weird feeling that medicine might get expanded on, not sure why

Well you are the author you can make anything happen. I heard of one where when twilight was supposed go princess the resident human got hit and went alicorn princess instead. He was not happy about that part the alicorn part he could live with but the unwilling sex change . Luckily a magical work and the hopes of avoiding a war got that fixed.

Interesting premise. I do have some extremely long term plans. To those I've told them to, they were excited. They really liked a soonish to appear character, a bathrobe may or may not be involved

That human got in a ton of fights with Celestia. It wasn't until after he went alicorn prince that they stopped and took it into a different direction that resulted in some new ponies in their lives.

You know, that sounds very vaguely familiar. I might have listened to the story, or a similar one at work.
11309322
remember that this stuff can't be distributed to anybody since it nullifies magic so well that even the princesses have trouble with it. giving that out would just be begging to have it used against you by your enemies.
11309417
Well it can't sit around doing nothing either and having it become the new amour for the army would put to good use.

they made it for Julius and a few select individuals they can trust. go back and reread when they discussed making more of the titanium in the first place.

Mild spoiler Due to the complete pain in the rump it is to work with, and it seemingly not existing in that world, it'll be kept for very special purposes. Like the personal guard of the princesses, elite soldiers, study by credited masters, ect. Though, steel might be coming to the world, and with some enhancement it'll still be extremely good; after all, in real life, there are quite a few situations where high quality steel is better than titanium. I do what to keep titanium as a sought after metal though.

I think it was from the TD stories by BronyWriter.
I wonder if titanium has a more common form, like bauxite is to aluminum.
Lovely plumage, the Norweigian Blue.
Induction furnace needs AC by definition. Can titanium be worked by Ocy Hydrogen, or Hydrogen plasma arc, which can be made with DC electric such as warehouse sized voltaic piles or self energizing homopolar generators etc? A disk rotating in a coil of wire with graphite or mercury electrode?

Real life, maybe, but titanium is surprisingly common (it's just in pockets so small that they're not worth getting). In story, well... possibly, although maybe not
11309627
It's plumage is even lovely when it's pining for the fjords
Equestria definitely doesn't have that technology (magic can be a curse in a weird way sometimes), and there's no chance Julius knows enough about electromagnetism to make an induction furnace. Maybe enough to point is an extremely general direction, but that's it. We need Discord to hack reality.

Ilmenite is the most common form of titanium ore.

Interesting. I didn't know that. Depending on how much into detail I go, that might be relevant to the story. That said, I do have a long term plan for titanium. Possibly unrelated, you wouldn't happen to know what the ore gives the highest quality titanium do you? Asking for a friend
