longgone 873 December 7, 2012 Share December 7, 2012 I am dieing to see a battle sequence in MLP. The only one (that I know of) is that shoot out in Over a Barrel. I wanna see the Royal Guard put to use. All they do is stand around or act as couriers. They have spears (when mane 6 enter room at end of E2:S2, two guards by the door have spears) I wanna seem them put to bloody use! I don't care if it's pies or gumball machines! I just want the guard to go into battle, and rout Equestria's enemies from the field! 'Twould be a most epic episode in my opinon. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you miss the big two minute brawl in A Canterlot Wedding somehow? In any case, I wouldn't mind seeing another one sometime soon. It might also do the royal guard good to have a scene where they don't have the villain walk all over them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Soul 2,611 December 7, 2012 Share December 7, 2012 I think this would be a good way to integrate the guards in an episode, though it would have to be major so people wouldn't complain that, "Where were they when Discord attacked, or when Chrysalis attacked." It would have to be an all out war. 1 Soundcloud-------------------Facebook---------------------------Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SørenWolf 227 December 7, 2012 Share December 7, 2012 I think this would be a good way to integrate the guards in an episode, though it would have to be major so people wouldn't complain that, "Where were they when Discord attacked, or when Chrysalis attacked." It would have to be an all out war. In the second episode of A Canterlot Wedding (During Queen Chrysalis' reprise of This Day Aria) we see two guards surrounded by changelings and trapped in that green gak stuff. so maybe they just got overpowered or something But a battle involving the guard I would be excited to see. Why is it called Common Sense if it is not that common? Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/SystematixDancer?feature=mhee Sig by Lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N8C8 56 December 7, 2012 Share December 7, 2012 (edited) ... I guess I'm not the only one that notices that NONE OF THE GUARDS DON'T DO SHIT!? I mean ever. Seriously, you would think they would put in more of an effort to defend their land. I've never seen them use, threaten with, or even wave a spear, and you would think they would use them by now, due to all of the danger Equestria keeps managing to fall into... My theory: They were never trained. Edited December 7, 2012 by N8C8 3 A strange boy and his dog came walking through here earlier today...

Dreadmallon 353 December 7, 2012 Share December 7, 2012 It is not the Royal Guards' faults for seeming worthless and pathetic. They are always put up against opponest who are impossible for them to defeat. For example, they couldn't do anything against Discord, because he was the "spirit (god) of chaos and disharmony." Nor could they do anything against the changelings, because first off, they were overwhelmed. Second, they were fighting alicorns who were just as powered up as their queen. They seem like your typical police officers in a superhero movie who die shortly after encountering the villain. Although I would like to see more battle sequences like the one in "A Canterlot Wedding, Part 1." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammo 986 December 7, 2012 Share December 7, 2012 If Michael Bay doesn't direct the live-action MLP I'm gonna lose faith in Hasbro. Unicorns firing all sorts of colorful energy out their horns, hitting buildings blowing chunks of cobblestone out of them. Sonic Rainboons ripping through crowds of changelings, all sorts of dust and wind blasting all over the place, Trixie as an Anthro sucking a lollipop (Ain't a Bay movie without a pinup girl), the USA military invading equestria and tearing up Canterlot with freaking Ac-130s. BOOM BOOM BOOM!! Pony's fleeing in terror, Celestia firing her cosmic beams just shredding through buildings, blowing crap up. Even if it's nothing like the show I would seriously pay money to see that because it would be such an AWESOME mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SørenWolf 227 December 7, 2012 Share December 7, 2012 The most intimidating thing ive seen from the guards that I can think of at the moment is in A Bird in the Hoof. and even then they dont do squat. 1 Why is it called Common Sense if it is not that common?

Rooish 47 December 7, 2012 Share December 7, 2012 Isn't this theoretically a show for little girls? As much as I enjoyed the fight sequence in A Canterlot Wedding, I'd prefer minimal violence in this show as it's supposed to be about friendship, and it's supposed to be for relatively young people.

longgone 873 December 7, 2012 Author Share December 7, 2012 IDk, I think they should at least carry around spears for intimidation/parade. Maybe ponyville/canterlot gets invaded, and PInkie bakes cakes/cupcakes that are used as ammunition by the guards! Thou shalt be smitten by thy frosted treat O' death! @N8C8 Deffinately not in the ways of combat. They can act as runners but that's about it. Golden Age would whip 'em into shape!

TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 Violent war scenes are not My Little Pony. But I would love to see the Mane 6 get more physical in trying to stop enemies, like they did with the changelings. Dashie and AJ must get tired of winning all their battles with magic. ^^ 2 "Human beings fascinate me Being just the way they are..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Storm 276 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 More battle scenes would be awesome, but I think they're best kept for season openers/finales. Too many battle scenes just wouldn't be good ol' slice-of-life MLP. Together since October 19th, 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null1 606 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 If they really want to do a shocker someone/something needs to die, but I know that won't happen, nor should it happen. Maybe a more serious chain of events in the season finale leading up to a big final battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcus (Silver Lining) Wind 983 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 Maybe when they eventually have the Princess Celestia/Luna Flashback episode they'll be put to good use. I always imagined that when NNM got sent to the moon it wasn't just a quick zap from the Elements of Harmony and Celestia,but rather a big epic battle in witch members of the royal guard chose their side and went into battle with Celestia's side being victorious. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Deviant Art 000Signature Requests000aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHeadphones on, Volume up, Tune out the world aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaDon't use violence.
