About the adventure
"They shall be my finest friends, these ponies who give themselves to me. Like clay I shall mold them and in the furnace of adversity forge them. They will be of iron will and steely hooves. In great armor shall I clad them and with the mightiest magics will they be armed. They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will blight them. They will have tactics, tenacity and charisma such that no creature can unfriend them. They are my bulwark against the neighsayers. They are the Defenders of Equestria. They are my Space Mareines and they shall know no fear." -- The Empress of Pony-kind. The Heru Heresy: Under the benevolent leadership of Empress Celestia the Imperium of Equestria has stretched out across the galaxy. On the eve of victory, the Empress leaves the front lines, entrusting The Great Friendship Crusade to her favorite student, Heru Shimmer. Promoted to Friendmaster, the idealistic Heru tries to carry out the Empress’s grand design, all the while the seeds of chaos and discord have been sowed amongst her friends. Play as Twilight Guillipony Rainbow Khan Jacqueline Russ a.k.a. The Apple Queen Shyguinius Ferrus Ungulae, The Rarity Pinkamena Corax Spike Vulkan The tone is My Little Pony with a touch of Warhammer darkness rather then Grimdark Warhammer horror with ponies. We are NOT subjecting cute ponies to gore and sexual content. We are however telling a dark story about friendship and betrayal. If that story has a happy ending is up to you!

How to prepare
You will need: A webcam, mic and headphones installed and tested. Yes, headphones are mandatory. They prevent that nasty sound feedback. A quiet place. If there is noise I will ask you to mute yourself until you speak. No children or animals in the background, they are super cute I know but they steal all the attention even if they are quiet. The free software Discord must be installed so that we can communicate. Test it to make sure it works with your webcam, mic and headphones. You will be provided with a link to the group. Create a personal account for free on Roll20 (online virtual tabletop for pen and paper RPGs). Do this before we start playing at set time. We will use Roll20 for visual orientation and music. We will -not- use Roll20 for character stats or detailed hex grid tactical combat. You will be provided with a link to the adventure on Roll20. Adobe Acrobat Reader so that you can read eventual handouts. Optional: Snacks, I want you energized and ready. Just don't go into a food coma or slurp and chew with your mouth open. Super optional: Watch My Little Pony: Friendship is magic 2010-2020. Or if you really, really want to then read/listen to the Warhammer book "Horus Rising" by Dan Abnett.

Gameplay details
The nr 1 rule is that we are here to have fun while being respectful to each other. That is why communication is key because misplaced expectations and misunderstandings can ruin the fun. The more players the bigger those odds are. Before we begin we will establishing boundaries, expectations and how you would want to communicate if you are not having fun or feeling uncomfortable (e.g. hand signs, private messages, etc). During the game you can always take a break or pause the game to talk about the content if you are not comfortable with it. After the session there will be a quick roundtable discussion for constructive feedback.
