New horse idea

[Joseph Porta]

Ok. So I had an idea for a new horse to fill a niche..

Its the Close combat horse.

• Rediculously slow, sumpter-esque.
• A shit load of armor, and I mean a shitload.
• Fairly good maneuver.
• no couching (not enough speed)
• no bumping

Idk, with the extremely low speed and shit it wont bump more then 1 guy before it gets blocked, the emphasize lies on tankiness and being able to fight in melee from hb. Instead of catching unawares.

They have that. It's called infantry.

What the fuck are you trying to say??

I like the idea - since plated chargers were nerfed.

Yup, though it would be a class of a horse on its own. 

Important is its extremely low speed, good maneuvre and no bump abilities.

Lances on these horses will be mostly useless it is strictly for 1h cav use, no bump also means no bump slashing.

It just needs to be very VERY tanky, otherwise itll be Just be point fodder like the current horses are in c-rpg when they get close. The enemys should be actively trying to hit the rider instead of ganking the horse in 2 seconds.

Keep in mind, that this is truly a shit ton of armor... But these horses will be made to take hits, otherwise melee cavving wont work.

And why da fuck do we need a horse between donkey and sumpter???

It might be interesting once leg armor is ever changed. No matter how tanky the horse, you can slash its legs and it'll go down quickly right now.

Interesting, sounds promising that it might be possible, even if it is unlikely to happen soon.

Hope!
