    Hey BlueStarBrony, I just found this video (& channel) and I'm glad to see some insight & head-cannon focusing on the Royal Guard. Would you be able to delve a little more on how the guard might be structured or how they work? I have lots of head cannon about the guard, including certain branches that might be part of it. I already have two OCs (My first actually looks similar to yours, but I found this out watching another video) that are/were in the guard, and I want to expand the concept.

    Beefeaters are guards of the tower of london. The queen is guarded just by the guards. They vary on which regiment takes guard duty. It's often the grenadier guards, welsh guards, scots, Irish. Then you have the household and queens cavalry.

    Thank you very much!
    I'm glad that you liked it, this is one of my favorite videos
    As you can tell I really like the Royal Guard

    No weapons? Their hooves are cowered in our equivalent of brass knuckles/boxing gloves. Combine that with flying and you got iron tipped drop kicks, and iron clad fist strikes. Not as good as spears, but pegasus are all about mobility, and spears would limit their movement.

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Yes I agree
    I think the solution to most of these problems was to have some RG in the background fighting some Changelings as the Mane 6 run down the street. Then as the camera pans by have 5-6 Changelings jump on each one...
    I don't like the idea of the RG being beaten so easily but I'd rather see them go down fighting then just disappear and see one shot of two RG being tied up.

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Yeah having a armored Pegasi diving on you would be scary! lol
    I too have the Unicorns use their magic in a sniper / long range role.
    Hmm the Earth Ponies and their lack of a distinct special talent are difficult to place but I think they are supposed to be physically stronger than the other two tribes.

  • @LWolf12
    @LWolf12 11 років тому

    When I wrote the guard into my first story. I beefed them up a little, the Pegasi guards was more like the air force, using dive bomb techniques, the unicorn being more like ground forces using magic attacks.
    I couldn't think of to much for the ground ponies other then their physical strength. Which thinking about would make them good for artillery, pulling catapults and using catapults.

  • @LWolf12
    @LWolf12 11 років тому

    Yea it would be :o
    It does seem to fit Unicorns using long range magical attacks, and Twilight has shown to use those attacks in the Canterlot Wedding episode.
    Earth Ponies are the harder one, outside of physical strength isn't to much else. I would believe they have a strong stamina as well and staying power. Making them good in a full frontal assault and possibly engineers for siege warfare.

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    I think those are simply the preferred colors for Military and or Ceremonial horses. But I haven't really looked into that.

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    I definitely like to go more into the Royal Guard but as is the on going problem with MLP is that there isn't any info on them.
    But in the Elements of Harmony (the guide) they mention that Shinning Armor is Captain of the Unicorn guard. So I guess this means that there are three captains one for each race of pony, and perhaps one that is in overall command.
    Being a military wannabe and Defender of Equestria the Royal guard really interest me and I hope we get to see them do more

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    After some post research on this I learned the palace guard are...complicated at least more complicated than I thought.
    Again I feel bad about what I said about them, since I have the utmost respect for all members of the military and would never want to do anything to disrespect them.

  • @wolfboy18
    @wolfboy18 10 років тому +1

    I would say that a large portion of the Royal guard were likely helping to evacuate civilians. Also look at how many changelings got inside the city. The way that I look at it, there were probably guards still holding out. I also believe that Pegasi have a weapon of their own. Wing Blades.

    • @BlueStarBrony
      @BlueStarBrony  10 років тому +1

      I hope both of those are true...It would've been nice to have just a few Royal Guard fighting in the background as the mane 6 run through the street, but I'm sure there are places where the Royal Guard are fighting hard! "We will not lose this hill!" lol
      Hmm a interesting idea, I don't know if I was a Pegasi if I would want to slamming my wings into things. That would probably hurt...Then again the Royal Guards did make a pretty threatening sword like sound in A Bird in the Hoof. Maybe their wings are tipped with Titanium or something. lol

    • @wolfboy18
      @wolfboy18 10 років тому

      BlueStarBrony Well Pagasi are more or less designed for hit and run tactics, being smaller and able to fly. I could see them doing that. after all; all it would take would be just a glancing blow from a wing blade to cause massive damage. My OC is a pega-pone as well. ;)

    • @BlueStarBrony
      @BlueStarBrony  10 років тому

      Lone Wolf
      Do you mean they have some kind of blade attached to their wing or just using the wing as blade / bludgeoning weapon? Well assuming their wing wouldn't break if they hit something at high speed, that would definitely do some damage to an enemy.

    • @wolfboy18
      @wolfboy18 10 років тому

      BlueStarBrony A blade attached to the wing, likely with a sharp edge. I could also see them using a spur like device as well. This type of weapon is actually seen in a story on FimFiction. Fallout Equestria.

    • @BlueStarBrony
      @BlueStarBrony  10 років тому

      Lone Wolf
      That would definitely do some damage. lol

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    I think the Royal Guard do fight for Equestria, in the case of A Canterlot Wedding we only got to see them lose...
    But I'm sure they'd fight to the very last to protect the Princesses and Equestria
    For the Royalty! lol
    But yeah even the writers admit there's a lot about Equestria and this world even they don't know about yet...

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Hmm I also place unicorns in a sniper / archer role
    In fact I developed a "magic gun" called the Caster for the unicorns to use, so that they don't have to spear someone to death or charge at someone to punch them in the head. lol

  • @Trueknightofblades
    @Trueknightofblades 11 років тому

    I would have to go with Chrysalis having a group of changelings within the Royal guard with the purpose of taking them down Black-Ops-style during the Wedding, so that they would not be able to come to Celestia's aid when Chrysalis took her down (Preferably without a fight).

  • @huginnkami
    @huginnkami 11 років тому

    in my mind id like to imagine the royal guard actually do fight for equestria we just dont see it because it's a kids show plus we dont see everything that happens in equestria anyways.

  • @stickAran
    @stickAran 11 років тому

    -Slightly respect him, it was about how he felt guilty over letting all of this destruction to happen. And for the most part it was his responisbility. He called off the wedding and broke up with Cadence so that he can spend 100% of his time protecting her, even if it ment breaking her heart and ripping out his own... Self sacrefice is a hero's mark. But in the canon version he just smiles ignorantly and dosn't get court martialed... I'm sorry but I cant respect a stallion like that.

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    They're usually referred to as OC's original characters but I don't know if there's a specific name to what you're describing
    You might want to check out Forward Base Equestria, they're active and retired military personnel who also love MLP
    I'm glad you liked my video and it's always nice to have fans! lol
    I'm a wannabe military person and appreciate people who actually ARE members of the military, so good luck to you and thank you.
    Stay Strong and Pony On!

  • @TrebleNotes
    @TrebleNotes 11 років тому

    I don't think that the Royal Guards are to pose as a military threat nor a physical damaging source. I think that they are supposed to apprehend any threat or prevent them from hurting any of the Royal family. They seem to be almost like decoration for the castle even though they are amazing singers,

  • @nightaction9
    @nightaction9 11 років тому

    Hey BlueStar, after watching this video i am a huge fan of yours,
    My channel is only about 2 thing. The Military because thats what im going to do when i graduate. And My Little Pony.
    Anyway i have a question. what it called when you have a pony character that is supposed to be you (the creator) in the MLP universe?
    example the character i have as my profile picture is basicly me. after looking at a number of factors in real life this fits the most.
    anyway what is that called?

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Sadly yes they did...they all got tied up. Bummer
    I would've liked to have at least seen them fight a little then maybe get jumped on by 5 Changelings. It looks like they were simply outnumbered...
    But I don't want to believe the Royal Guard could be defeated so easily, but I guess no one can win against those odds

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Actually researching this a little the beefeaters are the guards at the Tower of London. The actually beefeaters are in fact totally ceremonial. So I was right and wrong at the same time.
    However I still feel bad about calling the Palace Guard ceremonial, because other then there uniforms there's nothing ceremonial about them. Again sorry.

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    What's NMM?
    Well they are a guard / military and they need to have some kind of weapon. Otherwise they're just ponies standing around in armor. Also since they don't have hands spears are I think the easiest way for them to cheat. It would look pretty weird for a pony to try to hold something like a sword, a crossbow etc without a hand.
    But yeah the Unicorns could definitely use their magic more, but we've yet to see the RG fight in any meaningful way. Maybe that will change

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    If you mean not the only one who wanted to defend the Mane 6 then
    Bring weapons and ammo we're going in!
    Don't worry kids all my weapons are set to stun, but we will not lose this hill!
    Or in this case we will not lose this step!

  • @BlueStarBrony

    I started reading about adeptus custodes and was like oh oh its of these crazy universes. lol
    But they actually sound interesting, particularly how they are very individualistic
    Blue Star "etched" his Cutie mark into his armor because it upset him so much to be without it

  • @sydneypeper

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    What they can sing? lol I don't remember them ever singing
    Well they are armed with spears that's a pretty good way to kill someone...again this is MLP the Royal Guard are never going to spear someone to death
    But yeah I agree they are the Royal Guard their primary job is to guard the two princesses and parade around in their armor

  • @josslynnpalma3109
    @josslynnpalma3109 11 років тому

    well it is possible that the changelings infiltrated the royal guard before the shield was put up and sence they can change into a version of you thay may have replaced hafe the royal guard and waited for the other changelings to break the shield so thay could attack the guard wen thay got ready to fight

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Well thank you very much!

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Of course! lol
    I'm sorry if I was disrespectful to the Palace Guard (I feel really bad about that) but they're not there to just look good they actually are guards.
    I remember reading that's why the guards were moved to guard the inside wall rather than the outside to avoid such...incidents with the public.
    They can fight etc they just do it in very "ceremonial" dress. As opposed to the Military police, the Secret Service or something like that.

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Well the short answer is they're not allowed to win...Everything is about the Mane 6 so the RG simply couldn't defeat the Changelings otherwise there wouldn't be anything for the Mane 6 to do. I would like to know where they disappeared to though...
    Yes the Changelings are definitely creepy...
    3 RG versus Nightmare Moon...sadly they didn't have a chance...
    It would be like fighting a tank with a BB gun lol

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Yeah there's a lot of things that didn't make a lot of sense...
    Hmm I guess in theory by disabling Shinning Armor she took out the command of the Royal Guard and also drained him so in the end he couldn't use the shield. So in short completely eliminated Canterlots ability to defend itself. Fortunately the power of love prevailed in the end! Yeah!

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    What the Royal Guard surrender! Never!
    We will not lose this hill! lol
    I must admit if I were in the position of the Mane 6 I might give up too...
    I'd like to think the Royal Guard would fight until they could no longer fight but then again you don't help anyone by being dead....
    I know Blue Star would definitely fight until the last. Then they'd have to tie him up or something....lol

  • @stickAran
    @stickAran 11 років тому

    I ment like the invasion could never happen if Shining armor didn't get married to the one he was supposed to protect. Thats disorderly conduct. Because he wanted to start a relationship, he was distracted from his duty.
    Lets say if: If Shining armor wasn't the one to get married, he would have full strength to reinforce the force field...
    I personally dont like and actully dispize Shining armor for being selfish, he should have cancelled the wedding. I once read a fic that made me.--->

  • @maksolotl

  • @eddieboulton9635
    @eddieboulton9635 11 років тому

    to me they may have killed a few changelings and the changling killed only a few guards then they gave up because they were greatly out numbered that makes the most senes to me i think they says something like that in the comic books along thoses lines.

  • @stickAran
    @stickAran 11 років тому

    Oh he is. But it dosn't mean he is a bad guard.
    But the point I was driving at was, you cant be in a relationship with the princesses when you are a guard for the same reason's why Superman can't publicly date Lois Lane. If he would die in combat or get distracted to be with his wife or girlfriend, like in the wedding. Mistakes will occur and with it a position like the captain of the royal guard, Everyone depends on him. And Chrysalis took atvantage of his weakness. that's Misconduct

    On your Rainbow Dash on Chatroulette I don't know what the point of this video is and the text is so small and blurry I can't read it. So maybe put some more in the description. I would also start with what your video is about within the first few seconds to get their attention or you could lose it very quickly.
    But still looks interesting

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    To a point I sort of agree with you, but I do think invading someones country and enslaving their people is a little questionable...
    This sort of reminds of the Cardassians from Star Trek who I think we're in a similar situation where to get resources they had to take over Bajor. That's a tough situation but I still think invading someone else's country is going too far.
    But maybe the Changelings and Equestria can get along and maybe work something out

    Oh dear I hope not too severely? It's always good to meet a fellow comrade in hooves. lol

    • @RubberyCat
      @RubberyCat 10 років тому

      BlueStarBrony
      Yes, they were outnumbered and even outgunned, as several changelings seemed able to emit one or another form of power bolt.
      And the Mane 6 do seem exceptional, but we haven't really seen how much ... or how little ... better they prevailed than the Guard.

      Yes, 6 mares, albeit special.
      And they was also overwhelmed.

  • @BlueStarBrony
    @BlueStarBrony  11 років тому

    Honestly I don't follow this...
    It wasn't his fault, if anything it's everyone's fault.
    Everyone was deceived by Chrysalis and by the time of the wedding Shining Armor was effectively under her control so it didn't really matter what his power level was.
    Honestly I don't think selfish is a word that describes Shinning Armor. I like his character, he clearly loves his wife very much and is clearly very strong.

  • @eddieboulton9635
