As for armour, I'd rather not encumber myself and risk losing my glasses in a fight if I can avoid it.

I'm not completely sure how her glasses are worn (whether or not there is a hook around her ear), but it sounds like Honourshine wants a (tactical/tacticool) glasses strap. We'll have to keep an eye out! Or maybe mention it to Rarity to include in the guild supplies next time.

We've got some basic supplies in our bag and at home already. Still some things we could need here for a trip into the untamed wilderness:
- Medium Tent and a Bedroll
- Machete for clearing the path
- Voyagers Helmet, Goggles, Bandana and Shirt for the appropriate attire
- Pocket Stardial
- a Rope
- two Magic Bandages, the Enchanted Ice and Heat Packs and a First Aid Kit
- some Blank Scrolls, a Blank Notebook, a Quill Pen and a Pot of Black Ink
And some Saddlebags if we can't carry everything home to our own enchanted ones. Though we can save space by putting some of the clothes on already.

Okay, here's what I'm thinking. Whether Apple Basket joins us on our adventure or not, we should get:
- 2 Small sized tents to share (so at least one tent could be used for rest while the other is more "active")
- A compass
- Tooth brush + comb + soap (We gotta show that we still have some class)
- Towels
- Quill pen + Scroll + Notebook + Black Ink
- Chalk stick (In case we can't set a flag point)
- Magic Bandage
- Bed Rolls
- First Aid + Ice Pack

And while we're there, it would surely be rude not to compliment Miss Rarity efforts for making and maintaining her generous supplies and the amount of work it takes look as well as she does (Subtle flirting, but keep it nice and clean)

Let's grab a medium tent and two bedrolls so we can camp in comfort when we're between towns; a few magic bandages in case of injury; scrolls, plus quills and ink if Honourshine doesn't want hers turning into common party supplies, so we can write reports to the Guild (and maybe a notebook for Trailblazer/Moonflower to make records outside the context of reports); a chalk stick or two (you never know when you might end up exploring a cave with plenty of opportunities to get turned around and nowhere to tie a surveyor's tape); at least one bandanna, goggles, and helmet in case we need protective gear; and we should check if we need a refill on anything like lantern oil. We also clearly want a pocket stardial because it's cool, but I'm not so sure we need it.

Let’s only take what we really need and leave the rest to our fellow Guild members who may want to go on their own voyages.

* One Pocket Stardial to keep track of the date.
* Four Magic Bandages to speed-up the recovery in case one of us gets injured.
* A Machete. If the Empire is as untamed as Honourshine said, we may need it to clear a path through the wilderness between settlements.
* The Medium Tent and the two bedrolls in case we have to camp in the wilderness. I’m sure Moonflower doesn’t mind sharing one with us. *wink* *wink*

The other items are things we already have or don’t feel necessary for the voyage.

Instead of trying to min-max an inventory puzzle can we just let the party figure out what they need in character based on their skills? In the "game" we're playing this would be the equivalent of hitting the "default," choice.

- Voyager's helmet, goggles, bandana, and shirt. A complete (Daring Do inspired) warm-weather uniform!
- A medium tent and two bedrolls and blankets for Honourshine and us and Moonflower. (Though maybe it would be worth carrying an extra if somepony joins us or the tropical weather is too hot.)
- A pocket stardial, to know how long we've been away.
- Blank scrolls (x10?), to write to the Agency with. And a Blank Notebook. We should keep a travel log for accountability to the Agency and to clear our mind.
- Machete, for cutting through vegetation.
- A saddle, if our sidereal bag won't be enough to carry the tent and bedrolls. (Wonder if this includes the bags too? Maybe an extra saddlebag if we need it?)
- Magic bandages (x8?) for wounds.
- Heat and ice pack for utility/wound care.

If that doesn't take too long, let's introduce ourselves to the new agents in training, to be friendly!

I'm interested in the Magic Battery. What can it be used for?

Voyager's hat and goggles, because a proper adventure needs a Pith Helmet. You've read Daring Do.

Some extra blank scrolls and a notebook. We have a quill and ink in our Sidereal pocket already, but a few extra quills couldn't hurt.

A Stardial, to keep track of the day, we already have a watch and a compass.

Medium tent, some bedrolls, and blankets.

Soap and a towel, Never leave home without a towel. Also, more medical supplies.

Ice and Heat packs will also be handy.

A bandana, to wear around our neck. Not that we need it, you just think you'd look dashing in it.
