Storm King's army as Daring Do villains?

[Jerry246 37]

As Daring do is a pony parody of Indiana jones, for the sake of fanfiction, have the Storm King's Army as stand-ins for villainous militaries that appeared in three of the four Indy movies and other stories such as the Nazis (Raiders and Last Crusade) and the Soviet Red Army (Crystal Skull). People sometimes forget that entire militaries of villainous countries were antagonists in the indy franchise, not just individuals.

The oirigin being that the Storm King's army did not completely dissolve after the movie and that remnants and splinter groups across the planet in former conquered territories fled back to the old stronghold and regrouped. Under new leadership (Some general usurping the throne as a Neo Storm King), they work to rebuild and supersede the strength they once had under the storm king. The new leadership is more competent and recognizes the need to overhaul and reform their current arsenal as attacking equestria immediately at their current state is suicide. So they bide their time and start the process of industrializing and mechanizing their weapons and vehicles to take into account technologies in equestria such as trains. All the while keeping a low profile and keeping their activities as clandestine and secretive as possible.

When encountered by Daring, they would noticeably be more technologically advanced than they were since the events of the movie. Having things like tanks, firearms, armored trains, submarines,motorized ocean going ships, fixed wing aircraft and other advances in their technologies.

As part of this process, they seek out superweapons to make up for the loss of the staff of Sacanas. Both researching to build their own or seeking out ancient superweapons across the globe to help in that process. The information of which they cquire through a network of spies and informants hidden across various nations as well as equestria. These military expeditions for the latter being when Daring Do and her rivals encountering them. The artifacts she comes after being either a component needed to activate a superweapon or it is a superweapon itself.

Many Times, like Belloq and Donovan, Caballeron or other villains would turn traitor and collaborate with them against Daring though would do it for their own personal gain rather than any form of allegance to the cause. of the Neo Storm King's army.
