The year is 1012. The Great War is at its height, with the conflict reaching a stalemate due to winter. While both nations lick their wounds and prepare for the next offensive, oddities begin to surface. Missing persons cases rise and odd lights in the darkened skies are becoming more common. Soon enough, outright attacks by unknown aircraft bring the denizens of the Equestrian continent to look upward and discover they face a new threat.

As incidents begin to spread to the other continents submersed in their own conflict, will the nations of the world put aside their differences to face the alien threat or will bitter rivalries and personal ambition hinder the defense of the planet?

A crossover between the HOI4 EAW mod and Xenonauts. This story will thusly include most characters belonging to the EAW world. This does not take place in the Equestria Girls world, but will involve characters from it. This will eventually be modeled after an actual campaign in Xenonauts and EAW.
Constructive Criticism is appreciated; chapters will be edited retroactively with 'dev notes' in author comments.
Previously known as Equestria At War: Equinox, as "Epoch" fits better than equinox.
