A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

All of the usual forum rules apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

That would be funny, actually. Dramatic clanging noises as she turns into a bunch of spoons.

Why would changelings even care about business? Clearly we must question every aspect of this simple parody.

They need to manage their love harvesting. Not to mention hive management. Chrysalis herself has a bachelor's degree in hive management.

Okay, so I'm at half-price books looking at some tabletop game books. They have two that I really want, and geez Louise does that say 45 dollars??? And the second one is 25?

Um. Well.

I think I'm probably gonna download the PDF version instead. Those are 20 bucks each.

Huh, all these extra princesses. Maybe they can play a part in Equestria's history?

That would probably be the coolest way to play it off. The Season 5 arc could be some kind of ancient history jigsaw puzzle told through out-of-order flashbacks that lead up to past-princesses throwing a shitfit at each other and disappearing forever. Extra flexibility because the contents of each piece could put the current episode's friendship problems into perspective, or cause them.

I do think they've kind of written themselves into a corner by making it a rather important plot point that there are only four alicorns running around. I mean they can have more Princesses That Are Actually Duchesses But Hasbro Commands It, but having another alicorn just kind of show up in present day and nopony bats an eye will be a pretty big plot hole.

Well, it's never been stated outright that there are only four; the fandom just jumped on the idea because we've never seen any others. They'd have to be from somewhere far from Equestria, though.

If cost is an issue, Pathfinder is free legally.

Twilight being the recent addition to the ranks was the whole point of dumping all the alicorn power into her so Tirek could run around looking for that DAMN fourth pony princess. That wouldn't make any sense anymore if there were suddenly other alicorns still around.

I mean I'm pretty sure by the time they were chucking each other through mountains, an ocean or two of separation wouldn't be much of a concern.

Story- point taken. I really would like to get the DC Adventures character guidebooks for Mutants and Masterminds but I suppose it's not a necessity.

Maybe there are other alicorns but Celestia just doesn't know about their existence. That's about the best excuse I can come up with.

25-45 is actually a pretty good price for sourcebooks. The price of Pathfinders sourcebook alone is like, 80 bucks I think?

I can't tell how serious you are right now, Kegi.

And this is a used bookstore. The dungeons and dragons sourcebooks are 8 to 15 bucks on average. Compared to that, 45 seems like a lot.

No, that's really how much they go for. To be fair though, there's a lot more material in the Pathfinder Sourcebook. It was written to be both a player's guide and a GM's guide because they weren't sure it would sell enough to make two separate books.

It's actually more on the order of sixty to seventy for new books iirc.

Edit: Dude, get it from Amazon. They've got it for 30 bucks new.

That idiotic fool had a pathetic notion of strategy, no subtlety at all.
