they are cool. you are not wrong
yes crossbows may be cool but what about composite crossbows?
What no kiss for hubby before she left? XD
Yep there are cool, also yeah that is for Unicorns but what happens when an earth pony wish to try their luck? Or a pegasus? I mean pegasus can sense the wind I suppose, but if the wind is that umpredictable I don't thing the licking finger trick will work.
(ah the trick is lick your finger and leave it on the air to feel the air and see in which direction it start to dry. Golfers used it all the time to factor wind changes
And the fourth player has appeared!
Can't wait to see how this all plays out.
Thanks for the chapter.
A private meeting with Celestia and Luna. This should prove to be an interesting three way—
—conversation!
I know the main six, spike, and cadnace/ shining armor isn't in this. But I would love to see Twilight reaction when she hears about Celestia's marriage
10957470
I want to see Cadence reaction.
I bet it range from "What?!" To "A wedding!" To "I'm earning a new UNCLE!!!??"
10957503
I won't be surprised if the crystal empire is in a full child boom after Cadence jumps around in joy
Maybe anon could practice the longbow
10957520
Jeje yeah, I could almost hear Anon, minding his own business, trying to figure out what to do. See if he can still be a mechanic AND a king, and then all of the sudden a pink missile tackles him to the ground screeching "Uncle, I had an uncle! I'm so happy!"
Depends. Will you use one against me?
I'm looking forward to the next chapter!!
This is pretty good. Can't wait for more

Composite is not strictly better than steel. It becomes brittle at around 500lb of draw, and making it thicker doesn't help. While steel can scale to the heaviest 4000lb arbalest.

I'm curious, would you be more accepting of the name anonymous if they were a pony? What with ponies having a very different naming scheme and some notable as well as minor characters being named after adjectives.
10956110
Anonymous has been a character in fics for a long time
Pretty sure he comes from /mlp/
An abstract representation of whoever you want him to be or maybe just a personification of the anons on that board
That's just the name
Human naming conventions are way different from pone naming conventions, and this is all fictional anyways
Ain't too far out there

If he can find one -- while I can see ponies making use of crossbows with a bit of squinting, who among them would have the build and inclination to become a proper longbow user? (I imagine it could exist in the wider setting as for example a minotaur weapon, but there’d be little reason for the minotaurs to export any to Equestria of all places.)

Too few people actually get it. Yes, "Anon" on 4chan is a generalisation, an amalgam of traits, and - for the most part - whatever you want him to be. He's unpredictable, because you never know what a group of randos will decide to say or do, even just for the hell of it. He's crass and brash, and usually very loud, but will surprise you if you think you've got him figured out.
Or, might just play it completely straight. You never know.
10957757
Probably. Even then, the connotations of the word alone are pretty specific: a pony who is unknowable. That cutie mark story would likely be interesting. Honestly, given pony naming conventions, I'd expect it to be paired with something else, like... Anonymous Note, or something. Could be a background musician, or a scribe, or a spy... all depending on the definitions chosen.
Additionally, a pony named Anomymous is less likely to be used as an in story stand-in for strictly out of story writing style choices. Because it's not the name in and of itself; it's the weird name with no accompanying backstory (and often no desire for), combined with using it to try to cut corners in writing the story itself, topped off with an unwillingness to take criticism when the previous point is stated. Put all that together and-
Well, I've been learning to measure my responses, because criticism needs to be constructive or there is every chance that an author will angrily ignore any attempt to help the story improve.
Also, fans really don't like it when you say their friend is doing it wrong.

Would have been funny if the guards had wheeled out a Scorpio.
"This is a crossbow?"
"Yes."
"The heck do you guys shoot with this?!"
"Ever seen an Ursa Major, kid?"
10957840
Agreed
Weird priotities but ok. Also he seems strangely unbothered by using ass where it means a species in that way.
Something about that very last bit feels very "on-brand".
Oooo. I like this.
I arrived for your last romance series, and I shall stay for this one.
Depending on the type of crossbow I agree
As someone who has both a Crossbow and a Recurve Bow, Yus, Bows are awesome.
Especially when you eyeball a shot 100m away, aim skyward, Yeet the arrow, and it still comes down on the target (not accurately mind you, but a hit is a hit).
This story is looking fun.
10957541
Oh ya Longbow for the win. Faster firing rate, not as noisy. Not as much punch but still good.
Funny thing, we had to take a individual sport in collage. I chose archery, after the first shooting class I asked if I could use my own bow. You should
have seen the instructors face when I showed up with a 55lb longbow.
Damn right lmao!
Xbows are cool indeed.
Especially the ones with 'Plodey bolts.
yes crossbows are cool
and yes I'll fight you
10957686
Composite just means it's made of two or more materials. Also, I was able to find firing videos of horn-composite crossbows in excess of 1200 Lbs.
11026800
holy sh!t, i did the same thing in middle school! the coach and all the rest of the class had to use these 3 1/2' fiberglass p.o.s. bows and here i am with an old english long bow as tall as me and real target arrows. the first rainbow shoot, all the arrows landed in the middle of the field. when i fired mine, it landed roughly in the middle of the front yard of the first house on the east side of the school. damn good thing nobody was outside to see that as i hopped the fence to retrieve my arrow and hustle back before i got caught, wasn't loosing a $20 arrow! >;)
This chapter brought up my PTSD from my working at gun range days, but overall a fun and engaging one!

I worked as an RSO for a year. I gave myself a little ptsd writing it lmao.
Yeah, except for when the safety's on Old Betsy.
Oh I agree
Good now load it again and shoot yourself in the face for making me cringe
Crossbows ARE cool. Where and when do you wnat to fight? Pick your weapon! I choose Gummy.
11271816
Mmm. Elijo a Blueblood, el mejor pony de toda la franquicia.
11260740
Concuerdo. Literalmente tenía todas la razones para darle la vuelta a todo el castillo y lo dejó ir, perdió su familia, su mundo, su trabajo y no se l oí s recrimina.
The end was priceless and it bad me laughing out loud 👍
Poor Anon put into a position he had nothing to do with or any hand in it.
Let's hope Celestia and Luna treat him well, he most likely will do the same to them.
Hugs and ears scrichis in the near future? Maybe...
Snuggeling?
There are worse hobbies than archery while waiting for your new wife to get home from work. Crossbows are cool.
Neat. And, yeah, crossbows are pretty cool.
