I noticed from the begining of this mod one important thing: riding horses are moving like ninjas, when you can hear them, most times it's too late.
Anyone who heard in rael life a running horse will agree with me that u can easily hear them from at least 50 meters, not 5 or when he bump you...
For me and many other players it's like hrores have pillows on hooves. Horses are big and heavy animals wich makes horrible sound when they are charging.
If you will make something with that most of ppls fighting on foot will be happy IMO.
