A message to undisclosed Equestrian loyalists -
The Cult of Eclipse, the aggressive faction which has recently exposed itself as enemies of the Kingdom are preparing to deliver a final and fatal blow to Equestria. It has been uncovered by our intelligence that they have indeed been attempting to summon the ancient deity known as Eclipse. We have also discovered their base of operations, and site of their final summoning ritual in Froggy Bottom Bog.
Sources have found that they will hold this last ceremony at the day of the coming solar eclipse, which sadly, leaves us no time to properly prepare an assault.
As such, besides the main assault we will need three small strike groups to eliminate key objectives behind enemy lines and infiltrate the enemy acropolis.
Strike Team 1 - Codename Phoenix -
Your mission will be to eliminate the massive water golem the cultists have been forming over the last few days. By taking out the golem, you will open a large breach in their defenses, forcing them to send protective units from within the acropolis to take its place.
Strike Team 2 - Codename Thunderbird -
Your mission will be to neutralize a battery of battle mages specializing in artillary. Doing so will greatly assist our main attack force on the battlefield, hastening our progress, as well as draw out further defensive units, allowing for easier infiltration of the pyramid.
Strike Team 3 - Codename Moonbird -
Your mission, regardless of the success of other missions, will be to infiltrate the Cult's acropolis and attempt to disrupt or delay the ritual. Expect heavy resistance from cultists, and their mage leader. For the moment our only information about him is that he is a very powerful water mage.
Due to the enemy's familiarity with out military strategies (thanks in no small part to traitorous military personnel) we have no choice but to send non-military personnel on this mission, else they will catch unto our schemes and entrench themselves further. For this mission you will be given high grade mercenary armor, enhanced regenerative capabilities and weapons of your choice.
Good luck Equestrians.
OOC
Alright guys, this is it, the finale to the plotline,, and it's right around the corner. Three threads will move in real time to describe three teams on the battlefield. With them, another thread will move displaying the actual battle as it progresses.
All 4 threads will move at real time, meaning for every round that passes in one thread, a round will pass in another thread. To sign up, you must indicate which strike team you wish to join. The numbers in the strike teams MUST BE EVEN.

I am definitely in, although any of the strike teams is fine with me. I guess my most preferred would be Team 1, then Team 2.
It. Is. On. ;D

Tongs is ready! Strike Team 2 Seems to fit her style, but if need be she could be useful elsewhere.

I think I should join, seeing that Mortar Retort has, too. I want to be part of the action, too. Since my character is against killing creatures (expecially other ponies) but is willing to save Equestria with all his power, I figured he should help in destroying the golem since it is an artificial creation.
Signing up for Strike Team 1 - Codename Phoenix!

Alright - Here's the deal, all of the quest threads that ponies are in are deemed - perfect success. Meaning Ruins and Caves have no casualties (They are not closed, the outcome is just known by now). In addition, due to the success of these operations, extra amenties are available.
Air Support - Horizon, being suspended from the Stars, will provide Air support when called upon. This applies once per team, and only to team Phoenix and Thunderbird.
Ground Support - Ranger will be able to provide limited ground support to team Moonbird before they enter the Acropolis.
Remember, this is a final fight and everything goes. Fight your hardest, think about what you're doing, and don't play the hero, lest you come out a martyr.
