horses disappear after battle

[Beauchamp]

I planned to fight on my own in strategus with small well equipped cavalry force. (just quick trading but mostly robbing in the end).

but i'm afraid i can't do it at all because of 1 "bug"

- i had a battle with 5 horses in my inventory. my mercs took 2 of them, stayed alive all the battle (wasn't difficult against 1 opponent), but these horses disappeared from my inventory when the battle was over. everything else what they had equipped (armor, weapons...) stayed but not the horses.

- now imagine i want a small mounted warband to move quickly, but after every robbery i make i loose all the horses my mercs take? like its fucking impossible to make profit on this kind of robbing ^^

can it be fixed?

[Torben]

Shit ya fix that please

[Segd]

Old bug. Very old

Old bug. Very old

Too old.

Not as old as the bug where your horses multiplied after every battle if the enemy had the same type of horses!

I believe at one point I had like 5,000 rounceys in Strat 2.

Fix!

What the fuck, I thought this was fixed in strat 3?

So you lost 100% of the horses you were still riding on, when the battle ended?

The horses cannot have lost any HP, and you have to be physically on them when the battle ends?

The most likely reason for this is that HORSES are actually considered a third team. This was done so that Friendly bumping would take effect. The only fix i can think of would be to remove horse bumping friendlies, or to make horses NOT use the same loot mechanic as regular gear and just make it flat percentage. Defender keeps 100% of horses and attackers get 25% of horses(with appropriate breakage penalties applied)

They definitely fixed this in strat 3...must have re-broke in strat 4

It's probably because the horses got scared by your victory celebrations and ran away. Maybe keep your clothes on next time.

I run faster than Half-Dead Rounceys, ride me. RIDE ME!

I seriously hope you just made a mistake there and that you really mean the winner and the loser.

Yea i meant that. I was thinking in terms of defense when i wrote that.

AFAIK, this bug was never fixed...
