Killing riderless horses mid-round

[Nemeth]

Ok, I didn't think it needed clarification, but:

Use common sense. If your team is kicking ass, if your teammate calls for a horse, if it doesn't hurt you and can benefit the team, then don't kill riderless horses.

I use common sense, you should use it too. If my team is kicking ass, we don't need another cavalry hunting for the kills, risking TKs (I noticed most of the TKs are either stupid archers shooting into clusterfucks, or stupid cavalry charging into clusterfucks), risking bumping our own melees netting the last few enemies easy kill or something similar stupid like that.
If I see you're whistling for a horse, I won't kill it when it passes me, but if I see a horse trolling around the field, I will probably kill it.

[Camaris]

Buy your own horse if you need them so much...

I do kill them if i want because:

... i dont want them to bump me in the wrong situation
... i dont want enemys to use them
... i cant hear whistles (my fault) because of metalsoundmod

I only dont kill them:

... at start of round when someone leaves them and its sure my team will take them
... if i see that someone of my team is running towards the horse

[Corwin]

I will always kill every horse I see. Because it's not fun to get knocked down or even killed by a strayed horse. You want to use a horse? Buy one!

[Noely]

I always kill riderless horses, covering yourself in blood messes with the enemys mind.

The Biggest thing that bothers me about friendlies killing horses is "Horse TeamKilling!"

What I mean about that is, its a teammates horse. I dismounted in front of everyone at the beginning of a battle round to set up 2 siege shields to help MY allies. I turn around just to see they are pwning my horse instead of rushing the other team that's getting closer and closer. Who do you think pays upkeep for the dead horse now?

Good Job guys.

[Ninja_Totoro]

It's inconsiderate. Don't do it. Other people can use those horses.

I'm seeing repeat offenders who think it's funny. I'm going to start killing them each time.

LOL avatar very adequate to the content

well, idiots will always be idiots, but in most cases killing a horse is resonable

[huscarl_johnson]

a riderless horse is just a horsemy old friend waiting to happen

[Chrothor]

That's exactly why they're killed.

fix'd

What's the first thing that happens when E cav goes down behind the lines? They whistle. It's irrelevant how good of a place you think your horse is left at. Any player who leaves stray horses be is a bad team player 

[Joker86]

[chance the horse bumps half of my team] + [chance the enemy gets the horse] > [chance a teammate benefits from it]

So I will kill any goddamn riderless horse I see, the closer it is to the area my team controlls, the faster I will try to, because the possible damage, if the horse goes rampage, would be the biggest possible.

If you want to use a horse then buy yourself one, with the new upkeep gold income it's no problem. If you did and lost it: your fault. I hate cavalrymen who get dismounted and run away from every peasant, totally panicking, only to find another horse as fast as possible. Because without horse they are like shit, huh? 

Edit: you also pay upkeep for found horses, just to mention!

Really? Wow, thats messed up.

Anyway, what we need is some way to tie a horse to an object so it can't go randomly rampaging through the teams. Would make my dragoon characters alot more effective 

[Cyclopsided]

I let every horse I see live, not just because I am always banner balanced on the cavalieres side, But if the enemy gets on it -- it is a death trap. I will dehorse and kill them if the enemy steals it.

I endorse letting stray horses live. I am aware of my surroundings. usually.

[krampe]

I just kill everything, enemies, horses, goons, teammates, flamers, admins, laggers, trolls and sometimes even myself.
