There's always some kind of bad mojo when the NCR is involved.

I dont think so. In this alternate universe, as far as i can remember, its a sort of AI that is a fusion with Princess Celestia`s mind from before the war.
I may be totally wrong though. Its been ages since i´ve read the fanfic that created the Fallout Equestria universe.

In original fic, Celestia fused her soul with POP mainframe because she was afraid of death.
So, if NCR treats her - or it, if you wish - as an AI, then whoever has the guts to command that thing commands it. If NCR treats her as a citizen - then she has to follow any rules NCR officials come up with. NCR might just give her some authority to be in charge of POP, but she will have to obey their every whims.

What I want to say is that either way, NCR is doing right thing here.

They gain nothing by putting her in any point of power. They have rose to where they are without her, I wouldn't be surprised if they see her as a potential threat. She is technically Equestria's ruler and I don't think they want her to be ever again. Either it's because they are greedy with their positions or something else IDK but I doubt that her status as ex-princess will get her any thankyou's. I mean littlepip and regina knew each other to some extent, and look at how she is letting her peers treat her. I always see the NCR as bully to get what it wants, but in the grand scheme of putting the world back together they are the best last hope. Or if you want to call it, lesser evil.

True, but theyare used to live in the world without the sun and with the cloud cover, so it is not such a big deal for them.
As for "putting the world back together"... Who said they want it? Maybe they want to be number one and with minimum costs.

Ah. I remember it now. But the fact that the NCR is about to strip Celestia of the only control and possibly even contact with the world seems like a really drastic choice.

The next question is why should Celestia remain in control. Imagine a country where military and state thingies don't obey state itself and don't follow the rules written and do what they see right.

Mikkillerib In reply to Mamonth [2016-10-12 13:43:51 +0000 UTC]

Shit man. Thats a really good question. Maybe if its possible, the NCR should assign Littlepip as the only means on communicating with Celestia
to make them talk about whether or not they agree with the order that they get.

Mamonth In reply to Mikkillerib [2016-10-12 16:40:42 +0000 UTC]

I imagine this:
"Yo, Celestia, look at the stuff, NCR is having a shitload of shit with some shitheads somewhere in the skies with pegasi revolting against NCR rules and stuff. They say that NCR is only thinking about themselves and not giving a damn about their problems, just like those pegasi separatists back in your time, you see? So NCR ask us to, you know, control weather and send a tornado or two on their shitheads, you ok? Oh, and there some alicorns who are, you know, just roaming around and ignoring the laws, so NCR ask for your help in this case too."
"No way, Lethal Pip, ain't gonna do that! You think they don't have a point? From what I see, NCR is being just dumb and stubborn and want to resolve their own problems with force! Even Luna, who always had short temper, didn't go all nuts with all kind of stupid ponies! Not gonna do that!"
"C'mon, Celly!"
"No!"

And then shit hits the fan and shit, shit everywhere. Would NCR tolerate that? I think not.

Why bother with Littlepip, when NCR authorities can place some ponies they are sure they won't betray and disagree with given orders? Orders in military and stuff doesn't work like that - you follow the order given, and if not, then you are having lots of troubles. POP mainframe is a thing of a cataclismic magnitude to leave it not controlled.
Think about Fluttershy and what her pursuit of doing greater good resulted into. Just to remind - Rosenberg family (the family who sold out/gave US nuclear secrets to USSR) met their end on the electric chair for betraying their country, if I am not mistaken. And they did it with the same thoughts of doing greater good.

Up until Littlepip she did a very good job keeping the Pegasus out. If she desired she could do so again. And I doubt the NCR has the firepower the Pegasus Enclave had. Or the willingness of Spike if he choose to deny access through his fire.

Masterbuscus In reply to Sturmlion1 [2016-10-19 23:42:07 +0000 UTC]

That was because of a shield around the structure, not firepower. I don't remember if that was her or not, or if the shield staying up was intentional or a failsafe after the war.

Sturmlion1 In reply to Masterbuscus [2016-10-20 23:04:38 +0000 UTC]

She had no control of the shield if I remember correctly. Its why there still using Spike to get in or out. And Celestia could control the turrets inside. Particularly in the foyer where the dragonfire puts pony's it sends.

She walked in the front door and hooked herself up to the supercomputer inside. While it gave her control of the shields and the defenses it did not give her control of the Single Pony Project. Which she thought it did. And the process was irreversible as well. Littlepip finds her bones lying on the floor.

The NCR in general are a bunch of dicks. If you go around the game you'll notice their arrogance, and oppressive crap all the time. Their democracy and ways of before the war is just a cover page, the actual movement is corrupted and shit; and their lack of shits to give if you have issues with them. They are almost like the legion if you look at them the right way. Just a different type of evil.

The NCR in the games used old-fashioned paper money, that was pre-war!
I'm guessing king-koder is following the same logic with this NCR using old-fashioned bits, which was Equestria's old currency.

Really? I thought they made their own money like the legion did, considering you could make counterfeit money for both factions but not pre-war money.

Gordon-Weedman In reply to Nickmane [2016-08-30 12:42:13 +0000 UTC]

They did make their own money, it was just slightly different compared to pre-war money (or current US dollar bills I suppose). These bits are probably NCR-made, just slightly different compared to pre-war bits, just like the NCR dollar bills in NV.

Here for example is a 5 NCR dollar bill from NV. At a glance it seems a lot like a US dollar bill, but when you look closer it's just very similar and uses practically the same style.
