Hi i don't know if this has ever been suggested but this came to mind to me today. I rarely hunt with any of my horses but i was thinking if they had this ability i would pry take them out more. Now i am sure you are all asking what is this great new ability, <grins>. Its a rather simple one but may take alot of effort to employ. But if horses could drag a dead rider back to say a city gate from a hunting area now that would be something of my interest. Oh and to be fair to more guilds this could be an ability that needs to be instructed by lets say clerics or empaths. Its just a thought

Interesting idea, but I feel it infringes a little on traders latching dead bodies to caravans, and fir fams dragging stunned chars out of combat.

oh i agree. i was thinking more that they can drag a person that is dead not just stunned and out of hunting areas to say a main road where a trader could pick them up. Like i said just an idea. thanks for the input though. :)

>>where a trader could pick them up.

Or run them over with their caravan <g>. I do like the idea, though.

So, by your definition, wouldn't those two things be infringing on each other?

While I would have no objections to it, I see this idea infringing a little on both of them. One affects stunned bodies, one affects dead ones. If you want to get to the basics, then all infringe on the ability of a second player dragging the first.

And it infringes on the fact that it doesnt look like anything is going to be done with horses anytime soon.

One thing id love to see but realized it was pointless to voice is bags for horses. Panniers and saddlebags to carry a few things in. but yeah, maybe in like 2012.

I don't know about other traders but my trader stops to tie dead bodies to her caravan if they are laying alone in the road. If other people are in the room, I don't stop. Now out in goblins on the way to Tiger Clan and Wolf Clan, I don't tie bodies to my caravan. I see no point in dragging them all the way out to Wolf Clan and then back to town. But if they are still there when I head from Wolf Clan to Crossing, I do grab them and tie them to the caravan. I even haul them all the way to the cleric guild and drag them to the morgue. So some traders do drag people with their caravans. Or at least one does.
