The history of the Mecha-Pony War is still being written and right now this page is still under construction. Blacksun388 is storing the battles here until they are written. (I will finally have FREEETIME! YAAAAAAAY!!!)
Motive[]
Alastor: QUEEN CELESTIA DECLARED WAR ON HUMANITY, FORCING THEM INTO GHETTOS. WHEN ME AND MEMBERS OF MY CHAOTIC GOOD FACTION RETURNED FROM FIGHTING CTHULHU IN SPACE, WE FOUND OUT AND STARTED REBELLION. NOTHIN' AGAINST THE MILLITARY, JUST FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM, NOTHING PERSONAL.
Celestia: Alastor literally just suggested it. It's all his fault.
The "cause" of the Mecha pony war from each side.
Mecha-Pony War: Cthulu's Attack and the Solar Campaign[]
The magical land of Ponies, The Kingdom of Equestria, has co-existed with the human colonies that it bordered for ages. A mix of fantasy and scienece fiction that has stood the test of time. The Phoenix flocks dwelling high in the Northern Arizoa Mountains, the Dragons who sulked in the Black Marsh and hid away from the world in the Southern Dens. This peace was shattered when Cthulu attacked. The Old God had shattered reality around them and, despite the protesting of his neice, consumed the land. As an Old God, Cthulu was immune to the ancient magic of the Equestrians and thus the advanced mecha warriors of humanity had to take up the fight. Alastor, Supreme Commander of the Mecha Army, drove his forces to space to do away of the old god. The Solar Campaign drove the Old God to the Asteroid Belt when a charge and feint of mass produced mobile suits slingshot around Mars' gravitational pull and caught Cthulu off gaurd on his flanks. There he launched a counter attack on the advancing Mechas. Flinging asteroids at the advancing army and crippling many of their Mecha. Alastor saw he would lose more men if the assault continued and authorized the use of his ultimate weapon: The Final Fusion. Alastor and BIAE, his most seasoned warrior, flew in the midst of Cthulu's barrier, dodging blasts of searing energy and monsterous asteroids, to unleash the full power of Heaven and Hell to peirce it. Alastor used his ship, the S.S. Kamina, to bear the brunt of Cthulu's lazer assault. Alastor ordered a full broadside across a giant asteroid in BIAE's path to clear the way for his mighty strike. Vulnerable after the ferocity of BIAE's charge, Cthulu retreated to Neptune's orbit in an attempt to heal his wounds. Commander Alastor ordered a full scale barrage with his standing forces artillary at an incredible range and their combined fire power crippled the Old God and sent him hurtling into Neptune's atmosphere. Alastor with his army battered but victorius returned to Earth.
Mecha-Pony War: Celestia's Declaration of War on Humanity[]
When Alastor went away with his mecha army to defeat the menace of Cthulu, Queen Celestia enacted her latest policy. A sugar-coated declaration of rainbow loving-and-caring war upon the colonies of humanity. The wartime economy of the Equestrian nation went into overdrive to deliver fluffy pony imperialism on the Human territory. A vocal minority arose in opposition to the war but where quickly silenced when faced with Fluttershy, the queen's top enforcer, and her mighty stare. On Feburary 11, 2011 the declaration was made public by Queen Celestia

Mecha-Pony War: Assault on Human Fringe Colony Anatolia[]
Queen Celestia ordered her forces forward to the human fringe colonies in order to break the defense network at Anatolia. An expeditionary force led by Captain Joshua O'Brien piloting the mech White Glint had been stationed at Anatolia with a squad of regular battle mech and infantry units for security by Mekasoundwave when the forces where preparing the Solar Campaign. Caught unaware, the battle lines scrambled for trench formations when Equestrian Rainbow Artillery opened fire destroying two mechanical turrets and killing 32 infantry men. A three day bombardment ensued which killed 103 more infantry and disabled two combat Mechs. Celestia then ordered an attack on the breach in the west wall. The 37th, 63rd, and 501st Pony Heavy Infantry assaulted the position along with the support of the 49th Pegusus air wing. Anti-aircraft batteries from a Mecha mobile weapons platform engaged the Equestrian air forces while the 775th Power Armor Infatry held at the breach. Some time during this, the Equestrian forces were moved up under fire to plant charges at the South-Western wall and caused a breach. O'Brien and half of the Combat Mech squadron moved to engage the light skirmishers sent to assault the Southwest breach. A brutal rocket attack at the breach by O'Brien and his squad had devestated the skirmishers. However, Celestia used the oppurtunity to unleash artillery on O'Briens position and keep him occupied to command his troops. O'Brien pushed his Mech to it's limits and used it's Overbooster to make a break out of the breach and inside the artillery's minimum range to destroy the guns. His gambit worked and when his combat mech squad reached him, the decision was made to flank the Equestrian battle lines. O'Brien ordered his artillery platform to fire on the main battle line to the west and charged in. Her flank folding from O'Briens assault Celestia ordered the Equestrian Battle Mages barrier over her command center to be re-focused on the flank. O'Briens infantry pressed on the advantage created and pushed back the assault on the breach. However the redirection of Celestia's forces quickly caused O'Brien himself to be surrounded. O'Brien tried to fly away but was shot from the sky by Equestrian anti-air guns and the 663rd Pegasus Magic Fighter Squadron. The expeditionary force, now under Lieutenant Fiona Jarnefeldt, was unable to hold the breach after being stretched too thin from losing the assault force under O'Brien. They retreated to the interior wall and surrendered the next morning after a night brutal bombardment.
