Players should be able to spawn with their mounts/horses in Defend the Virgin. It would be very useful and why not?

I think so too.
Maybe it would be OP on peasants but who cares. Another problem might be that you can ride around the map with the whole wave trying to aggro you, could it be fixed by making the bots not gollow mounted players?
Some waves like hoplites and pikemen (unrelated here, but also add assassins with daggers) to even the odds would be nice. But hey, who wouldn't like to have a huge cav charge vs peasants?

I think they kept it out because some people (trolls) might take advantage and delay the round and wont let the round pass and make everyone leave if theres a way to avoid this, I support horses in DTV

The bots already have mounts anyway, I don't see why not.

If the intention is trolling/kiting a 3/39 shielder would do better.

I think horses aren't allowed because it's pretty easy to fight against bots when you are mounted, bots don't have any "awareness" to kill the rider if they are aggro'ed on someone else.

There are ranged units on DTV. Also, who cares about dirty peasants ! They are like butter that players like slice at.

The AI is already bad. Mounted players is the  death sentence for it in many ways. So it will not happen. Cav already get their riding converted into athletics if it is higher afaik.

Would it be possible to enable spawning on horseback in certain rounds only?

Like enable it against bot-cav waves, often enough bots are delaying just by riding around with players not being able to catch up (and cause 99.0% of all players on dtv dont know how to "steer" cav-bots into a building or tree etc)

and maybe on peasants for the fun of it :D

No, someone will just spawn a +3 courser with 48 speed and 11 riding and run circles around the bots.

Bots are stupid and will just follow the horse all day until people pick them off 1 by 1.
