I always bump pesants, irrelevant of what team they belong to.

Their place is workiing in my fields, not clogging up my battlefield!

I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

Can I get you to add one thing to your list, Torben?

In siege, when infantry are hacking down a door and there's no enemy around, dont charge into them with your horse, take a slash from back swing or whatever, and then "M" them for the damage your stupidity just caused.

Leesin - although nothing makes me happier than x5 (yes i would gladly sit on 0 kills for constant x5) sometimes when im fighting my awareness is gone as im just tunelled in on the guy(s) im fighting/blocking.

Generally I will move out of a cavs way or let them bump so I can slash the downed guy - I love it. I love it when cav bump guys for me.

Some of my favourite battle moments are when I would wait just outside melee range of the big cluster of enemies, cavalry charge them from the side or rear and then it just becomes a slaughter as they have no chance to defend themselves.

I dont want a fair fight, I just want to win!

Fair fights are for duels.

If it were up to me I'd just remove kills from the scoreboard altogether and have only a website scoreboard of kills/deaths etc, but I know that wouldn't happen because there are too many players who want to flash their e-peen around on servers.

Huge +1

Remove scoreboard. Add a personal stats page on forum or ingame, maybe similar to the "C" char sheet popup.

That would keep ppl from whoring and instead focus on winning = increased teamwork/gameplay.

About cav... sometimes I hate them, especially when there are plenty of them or when they are sneaking up to me in the huge battles (EU1) but sometimes I feel sorry for them cause I know the trick to dehorse every single one of them if they try to attack me one on one.

I only recently came back to cRPG, so haven't seen this thread before. I actually didn't think there was one with all the critics I have for the horsemen riding around the battlefields atm :) You summed it up nicely in the first post, Torben, when to go in and when not to!

Can't help but think, that all this could be avoided by simply NOT being able to bump friendlies. Dunno why it was developed in the first place, if it was a sense of realism or an attempt to make cavalry less useful and balance out the classes, nevertheless, I think both inf and cav would be grateful that it was removed. Or am I wrong?

I really think players should learn to respect their team-mates, in siege I once jumped off a wall to avoid throwing a lance into some guys back (was on the edge of the wall, guy had run infront of me, I had guys blocking all other movement choices, to late to cancel the throw). as a cav if I accidently bump the teammate I will (intentionally) stay ontop of the enemy allowing him to kill my horse and heavily damage me in order to save my teammate from dying due to MY MISTAKE, however, when after such cav incidents as I mentioned above the inf either "m"'s me, or go kill greedy and teamhit my already near-dead char tons of times in the back I just regret going into any attempt to save him...
I don't expect other players to go into half the length I do in order not to teamkill, and TBH I'm not doing this as much anymore due some greedy fools bringing their own death 100% uppon themselves or kills me in the attempt to killsteal... all players should start respecting their team-mates... I don't enjoy my team winning if I after charging onto a siege tower covered with enemies, killing all 'cept one of them, then die due to some retarded archer shooting me in the back... show some freaking respect to your team-mates and don't just try to get easy kills/help your team win.
1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.
