History Awesome / EquestriaAcrossTheMultiverse

* Villainous one: Chrysalis nearly wins, takes on the Alliance, and does a metric ton of damage...and is just a normal, [[BadassNormal but extremely intelligent sociopath who did so through planning.]]

* The Giant Six and mane six vs the bandits. The fact they combine their abilities to both crush their foes ''and'' minimize causalties is an epic factor.

* When it looks like Yomi is going to win, [[spoiler:Sunny Days and Moonlight manage to [[DeityOfHumanOrigin ascend to godhood]], becoming Celestia and Luna]]. The Mane Six then go Rainbow Power, and share them like they did with the Tales Cast with Moonlight, Sunny Days, Nightstalker, Maud, Antiquity, and Orangejack, allowing them to put Yomi down for good.

** Gamera and the Beetleborg Crusaders fight a huge stag beetle-like mecha, using teamwork to get past its drones. In the end, Applebloom goes [[SuperMode Mega Blue Beetleborg]] to fly the group in close, at which point Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle destroy its pincers and drones, leaving it open for Gamera and Applebloom to finish it off with a combination Plasma Fireball and WaveMotionGun.
* The Jaunting base is being overun by robots let in by Metal Twilight's fight with her double...until the Flim Flam Brothers complete [[HumongousMecha Seiryu]]. Virtual Minuette then pilots it to wipe out the robots, allowing mainline Equus's secret weapon to finally be launched.

* The Space Legionnaires among the Hegemony forces present shows once again why they are considered the Empress' '[[TheDreaded Angels of Death]]' - throughout the battle, three Legion Assault Squads, led by Captain Cerberus and her counterparts from two other legions, leapt from airship to airship using Jump-Packs and proceeded to massacre the Yeti forces with bolt pistols, chainswords and grenades, before planting charges to blow up the enemy airships. Such was the slaughter they were causing among the Yeti forces that many broke and fled, some even [[BettertoDiethanBeKilled choosing to take their own lives or leaping overboard]] rather than face them in battle. It took the appearance of [[spoiler:the Uber Troggles and their Ram Necromancer commanders]] for the Storm King's army to even the odds.

** And when Tempest Shadows managed to knock the Mane Five overboard and was about to finish them off, Princess Gilia intervened, using a precision beam strike to correct Rainbow Dash's fall and allow her to save the rest of the falling Mane Five in a controlled crash. Then Princess Gilia fought Tempest Shadow to a stand-still, matching blow for blow without breaking a sweat. She even manages to NoSell an Obsidian Orb by blowing the petrifying gas away with her wings and counter Tempest Shadows' chaotic arcane energy attacks with her own. This makes sense [[spoiler:because Princess Gilia is Tempest Shadow's alternate future counterpart]]. All the while, she never stopped trying to convince Tempest Shadow that it isn't too late to stop and make a Heel-FaceTurn.

* Hercules Beetle deserves mention for holding his own against Cerberus and her battle-sisters ''by himself'' for nearly the entire battle and even having the upper hand at points. While it's ultimately defeated in a daring move by Cereberus (one for her as well), his [[OneWingedAngel Ultimate Shield Mode]] is also imposing and impressive. [[WorthyOpponent Cerberus is impressed by him.]]

* The Giant Six and mane six vs the bandits. The fact they combine their abilities to both crush their foes ''and'' minimize causalities is an epic factor.

* Knowing the Hegemony forces would present a major threat to his forces, the Storm King was genre-savvy enough to hire an outfit of EliteMooks from a parallel dimension, with help from Ispita. Who are these mooks? None other than suped-up versions of the Troggles from G1, upgraded with his tech to the point that they become packs of 'Uber' Troggles who could fight [[SuperSoldiers SPACE LEGIONNAIRES]] to a draw and inflict actual casualties among them. And that's not even counting their arguably even more dangerous commanders...

** Kudos to the Alicorn Princesses who had enough [[GenreSavvy foresight]] to expect the Storm King had something like this up his sleeves, and had arranged to have [[TheCavalry reinforcements]] on standby just in case. These reinforcements later proved critical to the Multiverse Alliance [[BigDamnHeroes decisively swinging the battle in their favor]] when they arrived. Bonus points for the Alicorn Princesses and present forces surviving long enough until then.

** Patch and Starlight defeating Goliath with a double Magic Surge and then, along with one of the Ebon Drakes, getting him to [[KnowWhenToFoldEm surrender rather than be killed.]] Even better, they managed all this with minimal causalities.

* Hercules Beetle deserves mention for holding his own against Cerberus and her battle-sisters ''by himself'' for nearly the entire battle and even having the upper hand at points.
** At the tail end of the fight, a young soldier Hercules saved from Cerberus earlier calls in back-up for Hercules, forcing Cerberus to send her battle-sisters to intercept. That one {{Mook}} probably bought Hercules a lot of time to finish the fight!

* Patch and Melody's SaveTheVillain moment in the Heartwarming page. That was some quick thinking on both their parts, ''and'' truly heroic of Patch to try and save an enemy in the middle of a tense fight.

* Bright Eyes neutralizes Goliath Beetles [[{{BFG}} Hydra Cannon]] by jamming her rapier down one of the barrels just as it fires. The bullet cooks off ''inside'' the gun and ''blows it to smithereens''!

* The Hegemony and Admiral Silent Hunter managing to stop the nuclear missile Chrysalis's sub launched at Ponyland's capital, foiling her final gambit and saving the city in the knick of time.

** Props to Starlight as well; she came up with the plan.

* A subtle, villainous one for the Hooviets: despite their armor being an EvilKnockoff of the [=RANGER=] armor, it can still tank serious damage. (As above, where despite the Hooviets having a grenade go off in their faces; the Tales Seven STILL had to knock them out before they could recover).

* The Tales Seven kick butt throughout the arc, putting serious hurt on the neo-Hooviets. And it's all ''exclusively'' non-lethal, and while running like heck. For a bunch of teenagers, they aren't to be trifled with!

* Pharanx's BigDamnHeroes moment, blasting a squad of {{Mooks}} with a grenade launcher before they can open fire on the Seven and their allies and sending the neo-Hooviets flying all about, allowing the Tales Seven to easily finish them off. When Thorax objects, Pharanx casually chides him for being too soft.

--> '''Yipper:''' “No, YOU too WEAK to pick on someone not smaller than you!”

* The entire conflict from start to finish is shown to be an aerial battle of epic proportions, with snippets and scenes implicitly showing hundreds upon hundreds of Equestrian and Storm King's warships dueling in mid-air whilst troops of the Multiverse Alliance fight against the Storm King's Yeti troops in boarding actions. It may not be the world-war that parallel Flim-Flam Brothers' invasion was in scale, but it is still clear that this would be a fight with Mainline Equestria's fate hanging in the balance.

* When the fight turns against him, the Storm King reveals that the mecha he was piloting was not 'Project Zeus', as he had led the Alicorn Princesses to believe, merely a powerful mini-mecha named Poseidon. Zeus is actually a 100 meters tall kaiju-sized mecha built from salvaged remains of the alternate Flim-Flam Brothers fleet, which he proceeded to summon. Zeus' arrival was heralded by a [[OhCrap giant Category-Five Hurricane which it created around itself that could be seen '''FROM ORBIT''' ]], and placed the entire battlefield in the titular 'Eye of the Storm' once the Storm King got in to pilot it, beginning the second phase of the battle. With Zeus, the Storm King has a good claim to be a [[PhysicalGod god]], for all intents and purposes...

* Among the reinforcements the Princesses called to their aid are some of the most skilled and powerful individuals and forces collected from across the multiverse: this includes [[Fanfic/TheBridge Rodan]], the Kaiju Guardian Beast of the Air from Terra; the 'Rebel Six' from the Anti-Yomi Resistance including [[WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack Samurai Applejack]]; the redeemed Metal Twilight from the Invasion Arc; Fire Ponies from an Equestria where [[PlayingWithFire EVERYTHING is on fire all the time]]; the Ultramare-verse Mane Six piloting Bolt Wings; the Ninja-Equestria Mane Six; the Giants from the Ponies and Giants Arc including Amelia, Rowena, Pauline and Rox; the heroic [[PrecursorHeroes Pillars of Old Equestria]] band led by Starswirl the Bearded with a redeemed Stygian; Kimono from Empathy World, despite not being a combatant; and Mechagojira piloted by Mainline Shining Armour, Sunburst and Starlight Glimmer. Needless to say, much flank-kicking would and does ensue when they arrived at the battlefield.
** Special mention should be made of the [[CoolAirship aerial warships]] that made up the Equestrian armada which transported them to the battle, including their flagship: the Great Harmony, a 1000 feet long, 70,000 tons {{Magitek}} aerial super-battleship which has as much armour as the Guardian 1 mech, and in addition to being armed with [[MacrossMissileMassacre missile batteries]] and [[FrickinLaserBeams super maser cannons]] like the other Amaterasu-Class aerial battleships, it also has a fixed forward-facing [[WaveMotionGun Hyper Mana Cannon]] as its most powerful weapon and could [[TheBattlestar deploy aerial fighters like the Boltwings and surface troops from its hangars]]. And who commands it? General Firefly from Alicorn Queen Majesty's Equestria, who is descended from none other than legendary G1 heroine Firefly herself!

* Just before the start of the arc itself, it was revealed that the Storm King had been level-grinding with the tech from the parallel Flim-Flam Brothers' invasion, to the point he and his forces actually shows up on the local Multiversal Villain Threat board - something which we later learnt even the parallel Flim-Flam Brothers hadn't managed. This Storm King would not go down as quickly as the Flim-Flam Brothers, from the looks of it.

* Unlike in canon, Equestria managed to spot the Storm King early as well as learning of his intentions, and despite only been through another war in Equestria, the Multiverse Alliance rallied almost immediately to defeat him.
* The opening fight: When the two massive aerial fleets met in the southern badlands near Kludgetown, the Storm King and the Equestrians opened diplomacy - which turned out to be an attempted ambush set up by the Storm King to have Tempest Shadow petrify the Alicorn Princesses. Unlike in canon, however, Mainline Rainbow Dash successfully defeats the attempt with a spin-dash attack she learnt from Speed World Equestria, deflecting the petrifying gorgon grenades and saving the Alicorn Princesses.

** The Alicorn Princesses proved to be prepared for this fight: Knowing the Storm King's mecha trumps their own individually, they fought him as a cohesive whole, using clever tactics, skills and maneuvers to cover each other and strike back at him. Then they used skills and magic they learnt from other worlds to tilt the odds in their favour, the most prominent being the 'Gattai' ability from Fusion Equestria incorporated in Princess Celestia's and Luna's Paladin Armor, enabling them to transform into a powerful fusion pony called Queen Equinox - something which the Storm King didn't see coming!

** Credit to the other Captains and their Space Legionnaires squads who performed admirably even in the face of the new enemies: Captain Fortia of the Iron Maidens legion, whose Space Legionnaires [[CombatPragmatist blew the airship from under their Uber Troggle foes rather than engaging in a long battle]] and then went to assist Captain Cerberus' squad; and Captain Onyx of the Ebon Drakes, who led her Space Legionnaires to aid beleaguered Alliance forces, [[Pro-HumanTranshuman actively protecting their weaker allies with their enhanced resilience and powered armour]] against more powerful enemies even as they decimate their foes with their advanced weapons and enhanced strength.
