[b]Operation Knightfall[/b] Canterlot was surrounded by a wall. It was not a traditional stone one however, rather a vast construct of silvery metal. It stood 80ft tall, 10 stories, truly a testament to the Equestrians phrase "The Taller, the Grander". The only entrance visible from the teams position was what appeared to be the civilian entrance. At the top of the wall were several guns, then various guard forces scattered about the wall and near the entrance. There didn't seem to be any security features beyond the guards next to the entrance, and a few camera like devices right inside the entrance [b]Nikolien[/b] "I doubt they can outmatch our production speeds, but the nanobots still seem like a good idea. Use them." [b]Research integration[/b] The integration of the research divisions of both the LCF and Equestrian Empire have begun under the Union's treaty. [b]Magic assistance[/b] The Equestrians stated that they were already sending teachers and archmages to help, saying they should be there soon. The Archmage's Coalition has also begun operating within the LCF, looking for those who are well trained and very powerful with magic to grant Archmage status. [b]LCF Military Request[/b] "We will send a frigate, but we also request that you allow us to send some of our generals and admirals to help train your forces. You already have access to our advanced weapons, you just need the training." [b]Union Military[/b] The Union Military is begin to establish, with recruits pouring in from both nations. Ships are being constructed, and scientists are looking into Synth, Cybernetic, and gene mods for LCF species. The LCF has also been told of the the war with the Collective.
