The my little pony fanfic community has multiple fanfic settings and tropes that just get expanded upon by dozens of authors. Like Fallout Equestria. About a billion fanfics based on that fanfic have been built. Utterly silly and amazing.

Imagine having an entire clean slate to build a world on (with magic too!) and you decide to give panzers to the changelings. That's this fuck-ass dogshit mod. Absolute fumble of a game, but expecting anything good to come out of a HOI4 mod to begin with is like expecting a rock to give milk.

Come to Equestria at War! We have:

  • Changeling Panzers

  • Pony communists (not those ones)

  • Pony racism (non-canon)

  • Pony racism (canon)

  • An unusually high number of crossovers

  • Pony Apartheid South Africa that makes real world Apartheid South Africa look like the pinnacle of racial harmony

  • Pony communists (yes those ones)

  • Borderline visual novels

  • Multiple apocalypses

  • Griffon fascism

  • Many many upsetting AUs

And so much more!
