[QUOTE="Snapdragyn, post: 6371064, member: 12432"] And by that interpretation, a warhorse is useless - it can never attack. Unless you think warhorses are meant to be thrown out into the battlefield riderless? 'Unleash the dogs... er, horses of war!' ;) Excellent point. I do hope my DM will agree on which is the general & which the specific (I would certainly think a line of explanation of an ability of a subclass of a single class would be more specific than 'mounted combat', but I've a bad feeling someone could argue it the other way). Edit: And thinking it over, I do think this means that the Mounted Combat feat could not apply to this build - can't gain the benefits of training to better control a mount if you aren't actually going to control the mount. Edit 2: Conclusion of previous edit retracted. See post #7. [/QUOTE]
