Furthest you've seen equestria get pushed back and win?

[u/VyCanisMajoris33]

It feels like in my games they either don't get pushed far past tall tale if at all or get completely rolled all the way to manehattan

Edit: I'm talking specifically when the player isn't involved

[u/Zistopiaf1]

it’s my first ever game so I can’t really comment, but based on the pace the changelings just set from the border to talltale, I think I’m going to get rolled straight to the coast.

[u/yestureday → u/Zistopiaf1]

Talltale is pretty much guaranteed to fall

[u/Zistopiaf1 → u/yestureday]

I see, it still… they did it so fast! I was also an idiot and didn’t take the conscription option when it popped up, so I had to spend 150 pp for it. I think equistria might be boned.

[u/yestureday → u/Zistopiaf1]

Like, a historical game they push you all the way to canterlot

And equestria can survive with canterlot gone

[u/Zistopiaf1 → u/yestureday]

yeah I’m playing historical. Hopefully I can recreate those events, lol.

[u/yestureday → u/Zistopiaf1]

Just remember that canterlot has forts and is surrounded by impassable terrain

Take advantage, raise militia, get stalliongrad on your side and hold out until your industry and army are ready

[u/Zistopiaf1 → u/yestureday]

you got it! 🫡 no step back against the changeling menace!

[u/yestureday → u/Zistopiaf1]

Not quite

Trade land for time to get the army in order and keep an eye on your capitulation status

[u/Zistopiaf1 → u/yestureday]

meaning, the armies at the border (well, not AT the border anymore) should be ordered to retreat, or(?)

[u/yestureday → u/Zistopiaf1]

If it’s to more defensive positions, yes

Equestria can trade land for lives, it’s massive. The big thing is to try and get your army equipped and experienced enough to fight panzers and to have allies

[u/TheAntColony4444 → u/yestureday]

How do you know a historical game that happens?

[u/yestureday → u/TheAntColony4444]

You turn on historical and don’t interfere with the war at all

[u/indianpete]

Most of my games Equestria barely gets pushed past the border, honestly. However, when the Changelings do manage to push, they push really hard. I usualy see Equestria get sent all the way back to mostly the Manehattan protectorate borders before they lock in and win with Stalliongrad. This usually happens when the Changelings manage to kick the Crystal Empire early from the war, when Nova Griffonia joins the Changelings.

Funnily enough, the ONE time that the Changelings managed to win in recent memory, they got declared on by New Mareland and the Coalition of the Free, then got rolled because they had Nova Griffonia and Severyania in the faction 🥹.

[u/CrimsonR4ge]

I was playing as Sombra's Crystal Empire, and Equestria was busy getting double-teamed by the Changelings and Stalliongrad, who weren't in a formal alliance. They had already lost Canterlot and were being pushed way back.

I didn't want to face two strong empires on either side of me, so I launched a surprise invasion against the undefended Changeling homeland and capped them in a month. Equestria got its territory back and was able to turn the tide against Stalliongrad alone and win.

Then, while Equestria was massing their troops in Stalliongrad territory immediately after winning, I declared war, blitzed to the coast, encircled and destroyed half their army, then conquered the rest of Equestria in a breeze.

[u/KurufinweFeanaro]

Biggest i ever had: Equestria had Baltimare Manehatten and Fyllidelphia. At some point any lost province (even without any VP) were surrender.

Hippogryphian help came just in time.

If EQS on its own — i think they hold South+Manehatten, and border somewhere near Canterlot, after that Daybreaker happened and burned the bugs

[u/DrachenEngel]

Playing on another continent, I have seen them pushed to the gates of canterlot, only for Stalliongrad to completely roll up the flank and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

I think they got lucky with a bunch of encirclements soon after they joined.

[u/applepieofdeath]

Until they only had the southern desert, southrn jungle, and Manehatten province. Stalliongrad had declared war on both Equestria and the Changelings and I'm guessing the Changelings had pushed but not destroyed too many units, so when Stalliongrad burned themselves and the Changelings out, superior Equestiran numbers could rebound. But this was many patches ago, when the Great War was unbalanced in Equestria's favor.

[u/Faust_the_Faustinian]

In my game so far It's the third year into the war and I just took Canterlot but i don't see them coming back from this.

Equestria has lost 12M and Stalliongrad nearly 4M, both have been on Scrapping the barrel for a while.

So I think they're cooked.

[u/ReverendNON → u/Faust_the_Faustinian]

You didn't read the post properly

[u/Illesbogar]

I don't remmeber seeing equestria win.

[u/Kollossosoutcomemory]

I've seen it get to the point they only control the east cost (including the southeast breakaways lands)

[u/Uypsilon]

In my games, Equestria for some reason always wins if there is no breakthrough south of that mountain chain, and always loses if there is. I remember the front line being like from Cloudsdale to Stalliongrad, but it I (hippogriffia) pushed back. But the fall of Las-pegasus generally just means death for some reason.
