I doubt any country can get a hold of enough of them to actually make them an integral part of an army.

Why do you think that?

Because it's Blueblood's?

Firstly! Her Highness could really use a dress with a higher neckline.
Second: Rainbow Dash is the first female member of the Lollipop Guild. This is now canon.
Finally: Fluttershy's look screams less "nervous laughter" and more "Mortal terror about to send her into a psychotic breakdown".

These are my only big problems.

You know, that was bad. Men aren't the only ones that like breasts.

Firstly! There is no such thing as a neckline that's too short.
Second: I reject your reality and substitute my own.
Finally: I completely agree.

It would take a genius to make someone wearing Black Canary's costume look bad on someone. Although personally Starfire>Black Canary.

By flying, obviously.

Pray tell, how is Minas Tirith "elevated several hundred feet off the ground?"

How is Canterlot? And Canterlot isn't built into the side of a mountain, its hanging off the side of a cliff.

How do you even BUILD that?

With flying and magic using builders. And very carefully.

Blocking off the tunnels doesn't necessarily mean stationing troops there; it could be as simple as blowing them up and waiting. As for supplies from the air, it's canon that they have airships, which could easily be used to prevent aerial resupply if armed properly (and could also be used to land troops after blowing up the tunnels).

I'm sure the Pegasi of the Royal Guard would have something to say about "easily", not to mention Celestia and Luna.

They didn't do much shape changing during the actual invasion so that excuse is invalid. And as to the outnumbered bit, so what?

We just didn't see much shape-changing during the invasion. In fact, we barely saw any of the guards. The show is focused on the Mane Six.

And what do you mean "so what"? Would you rather fight three gangsters or one?

Which is a bit obvious with the green flame when they do change. And the fact that a lot of them weren't changed.

Oh, it's so easy to tell the difference, huh? Did you even watch the changeling fight? The Mane Six were incredibly confused.

Wisconsin9 wrote:And that if they can disguise themselves to look like anyone, then what was stopping the guards from pretending to be one of them in disguise?

What's your point? They would still lose.

They also have some "nuclear options". Celestia, Luna, Cadence and Shining Armor, the Elements of Harmony.

Celestia was defeated by Chrysalis, Luna was gone, Cadence is useless as a fighter (she did no fighting at all, and she just used her magic to power up Shining Armor's force-field-attack), and the elements were inaccessible due to the sheer number of changelings.

I was speaking hypothetically, not about the events of A Canterlot Wedding.

Ah, I apologize then.
