Great Lance Thrust

[PhantomZero]

Now that the Long Great Lance is gone I would like to see the Great Lance's thrust come back. It is now more dangerous than ever to be a horseman with 2H and Polearms being able to rear your horse. If archery wasn't perceived as being shitty most of the cavalry you would see would probably be horse archers.

Polearms dance in and out of the couch lance due to the lowered speed and maneuverability of the horses, 7 in riding is pretty much mandatory unless you only fight other cavs.

Horsemen can't fight 1v1 against much, which is why people complain all the time about being horse bumped in a duel or having their kills stolen. Cavalry are the vultures of the battlefield, hoping to strike at those too busy to realize there is a horse galloping at their head.

The thrust would go a long way to bringing a headfirst charge back.

You're sucky cav, practice more. I'm not good either but had no problems killing Pikemen or other cavs (2 or 3 per round) using normal Steppe horse (really slow horse) and only 3 riding. Learn to use Heavy Lance, side trust and use it properly,  couched lance is for my old friends or people who are in a hurry. my old friends are the only ones who use it all the time tho

I do use the heavy lance and I use it quite well, I use it all the time and I am a my old friend, want to hang out some time?

Or you could just read my post, fighting against other cav doesnt require any riding, and adding thrust to the great lance has nothing to do with couching.

I can stab shitty pikemen to the head with the heavy lance as well. I have no business near good pikemen. This is exactly how it should it. The situation in fine now.

You shouldn't be able to headfirst charge into a decent pikeman. 

If you want the extra range of the great lance and want to stab, carry two lances.

has been discussed, and it won't happen.

Then remove the requirement to press x to couch or return the lance of compensation.

Rock paper scissors.

You can't expect to run around stabbing pike men who know what they're doing.

i enjoy it as it is,nothing wrong now, i love killing idiots with pikes, its funny how they think i have a pike which means the horsemen automatically dies right? and they thrust really late
