More Siege maps where cavalry would be useful

[Alec]

I would like to play cavalry more often and not only on the battleserver, what about you? 

[Krex]

No,if there is cav its not a siege(just look at Native SP,lol).But you could try to give cav a place where they can enter the castle,like a door somewhere where no inf will ever go because its to far away from attacker spawn.

Nice idea

[Moncho]

There are various castles with doors like described above, which never get used, because even though the backdoor is reached much quicker, the inside is most of the time too small to use.

Make them

NO. NOOOOO.

Wanna know why? Becouse: NO!

Ok. Serious. There already are some cav charging around in siege. Usually not more then two or three. Thats ok. Siege is indoor mostly. So why should there be more cav???? I dont get it.

Whats wrong in playing cav in battle? Cav is good in battle. There it has its use. I dont mind about cav in battle at all. But reall really, dont tell me you want to see big cav battles inside the walls of a castle. Its ridiculous at the best.

If you were thinking of cav playgrounds outside of the castel walls, again why dont just play on battleserver? You have more then enough open ground there.

Siege is all about defending or storming castles. Not much use for big cavallry rushes there, except of the one or two lonely knights on horse squeezing themselves through the gates.

Because i don't like battle and it's limitations. Waiting til next round to spawn is quite boring. Cav shouldn't be forced to play eu_1.

well its should

[Lannistark]

You see throughout history, sieges occured precisely to isolate cavalry from participating. 

Although I get your point since this is a game anyway.

[Alec]

bump it biatch 

[Man of Steel]

Add siege tower or something like that you can push faster on Thema wall with a horse

What OP wants..

I support this.

[Baskakov_Dima]

Cavalry WAS actually used on sieges - but as support.

1) By attackers - to charge from opened gate, make a raid and return. Can be shown as attackers going out and charge as they do now, but if only maps are made more open on sieges.
2) By defenders - to deliver messages and for reconnaissance. Hard to implement in cRPG, as there are global chat, TS and Spectator.
3) Also by defenders - to cover flanks and rear to avoid attacks from armies outside castle. Also impossibru.

So, the only way to make cavalry more useful is to make more open spaces around castles - and I am completely for it, even though I rarely play cav even when I have money to sacrifice and good moment.

Put a second defender spawn somewhere out of the castle so cav can spawn there. Then cav has fun fighting ahorse. That's it. More cav in siege means less people defending walls and the flag (if the courtyard isn't big enough).
For it depends on the map if cav is useful on siege or not. After all siege isn't about killing everyone (like battle) but about taking over the castle (by taking the flag). On many maps or rather most maps afaik the flag is even on open ground so cav isn't really useless for taking a flag but cav does of course need far more open space in the castle to be useful. And cav has no way to get into the castle on some maps. Most maps have side doors though or big gates.
Most are rather flat as well. But then again, cav is not hard to counter if there's not much free space to use.
So in the end, battle is and will stay the best mode for cav.

Second spawn is useless as soon as you can't select spawn.

UPD: But if they make that option...
