dehorsing cavalry?

It would be awesome to have a feature that makes infantry face the cavalry in another way. For example if the horse gets reared and stops, infantry would be able to take him off the horse while not doing damage to the horse (dehorsing him using hands). This situation also happened a lot in the medieval times. The rider is simply sent down from the horse by infantry. It would be interesting and add so many different options in the game because the horse wouldn't receive the damage from it and a random infantryman could get on the horse. Write your thoughts.

Thanks in advance, Aethelwolf

P.S.: Sorry if I can't explain myself well, english isn't my native language so I hope you get what I mean

It would be very similar to GTA car stealing and kicking the drivers out of the car :D

the idea is very cool, but im afraid the engine wont be able to handle this. you will probably have to wait for the next game.

I know the engine maybe couldn't do it but what about to make it similar to nudge. That wouldn't involve much work and could be upgraded to look better later  :?

Engine can handle this. You guys seriously need to play Vikingr a bit (and other mods from time to time).

I've tried Vikingr but didn't stay at it, because the fights were a bit slow paced I think. Nice mod though. But if the engine COULD handle it, it would be awesome  :)

I don't know when did you play it exactly, but they patched it 1-2 month ago. It is even more epic now. With epic features and pure epicness. Not many people are playing it though :cry:

I don't know, played it like 7 months ago. But if they patched it to a more epic mod, I see no problem in trying it. Thanks for the suggestion  :wink:

You're welcome :)
Oh by the way, I didn't comment on the suggestion. Yes it would be great. But not for me; cause I am cavalry :D

Yeah, it would make it harder for cavalry but 75% of time, you are f***ed anyway when your horse is reared in the middle of enemy group :D not counting if you have a plated charger or something :) of course the cavalry couldn't be dehorsed while riding. Only when they are reared (so the horse is saved) :D
