horsekick - I mean a horse should be able to perform a kick with its hooves

When footmen can kick-stagger an opponent - smoke a cigarette - and slash-kill the opponent,

why horses cant?

Imagine, your horse gets stopped by some polearm-guy, and doesnt die (I know, doesnt happen very often, but once in a while), another guy attacks your horse from behind,
you press e, and your horse gets its legs up and knocks that sneaky bastard down, that would be cool and realistic as well.

Well timed ctrl J kicks would be funny for like the first day but please don't add it because it would get really irratating.

[Rhekimos]

An interesting idea. It would make ganging the stopped horseman a little more risky. Maybe even to the point of being overpowered, though.

[Rumblood]

While it does make sense, my concern with it is game balance.

[Miwiw]

Yep, let's bump someone down, while he is on the ground I'll kick him to death. Sounds too easy.

[Haboe]

Brave attempt! Usually people bite your head off if you suggest giving cav a boost!

Horses can't because they can bump infantry all around them by just pressing W from a full stop. I suggest we make it so that when infantry go forward, they bump everyone in their way and high athletics agi characters can knock everyone down.

Because a high ath human being is comparable to 100's of pounds of solid horse muscle moving at speed.

[Strider]

I'm all for this. Horses kill more people with kicks than humans do with kicks. Totally realistic.

Hey guys, we've got a master at reading comprehension over here.

Have you ever heard of the word Sarcasm? You probably should read on it and then do a dissertation on which part of my sentence was sarcastic.

I'll grade you on it, I'm expecting it within a fortnight.

[Havoco]

I'd be for this if they added collision damage and some temporary speed/maneuverability nerf for a few seconds after the horse went from a full run to a stop.

"The distinctive quality of sarcasm is present in the spoken word and manifested chiefly by vocal intonation"

I fully expect your dissertation on 'Why is it moronic to use sarcasm in the written word?'.

[Everkistus]

I like this idea. Press e on horseback and your horse kicks backwards, knocking the poor bastard behind you down.

[Gurnisson]

If it instakills the horse after use, then it'll be fine.

Suicide bomb horses?
