Horse Smashing

[Tintin]

Just a suggestion. I thought it might be good to smash into other horses with yours. I'm pretty sure if you ran into another horse the collision would cause some damage to both horses.

I think the prerequisite to this is the addition of troops being capable of being pulled or knocked off a horse first for this to be feasible.

Yeah, horses would have to be smarter for this to work. Right now you can charge your horse straight into a tree and it won't complain or try to go around, and with this you might get destroyed by your own silly men.

And also, the AI would stay on their horses for about...10 seconds per battle? Before running into a tree, or a rock, or another horseman. It would be nice to see, though. Pray for a sequel.

But if you can get your horse hurt when colliding with other horse wouldn't that have a downside when trying to charge with cavalry at the start of a battle (alot of cavalry is required for this but..) Most of the time you'll crash against your fellow cavalry when your in the middle of a charge.

I would like to see something along these lines, but as it is there's no way the AI can handle this. Always the AI, always...

Yeah, exactly. Pity AI is so CPU-intensive. Either good AI and small battles or dumb AI and big battles. And let's be honest, big battles come first.
