Not quite. While Fluttershy is definitely more powerful than most of the faction leaders, she is about equal when confronted against Twilight Sparkle, whose foray into necromancy and dark magic has given her a great deal of magical strength. The two serve as opposites of each other -- Twilight representing a cold, calculated, and orderly system, her army composed quite heavily of mindless undead bound to her will and serving more as extensions of herself, while Fluttershy represents chaos and anarchy, her army formed of various nomadic Equestrians and beasts of nature that act and think of their own accord.







Of course, that is only in a direct fight. In terms of raw power, each faction has something going for them that gives them an edge. For all Twilight and Fluttershy's personal might, their armies aren't as capable as they'd like; Twilight's army is composed mostly of undead (they do have living units, but they are few and far between), which makes spying and secretive operating harder, and Fluttershy's army is not quite as large, so when these two make moves they typically have to make them count.





Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash's armies, meanwhile, are more numerous and tend to be able to operate in secret for months at a time before making a move. With vast spy networks, they can gain intel on one another and plan accordingly, while Twilight and Fluttershy prefer more creative means of spying -- typically through animals and the like (even Twilight; I'm tempted to have her associated with crows and owls). If any of the other faction leaders knew this method of spying, they would not be able to sleep comfortably at night.





But I'm rambling.
