Okay IMC, there is a arthurian cultured kingdom known as Hundyr. The country has been at war with its aggressive neighbor Nether for many years. Though the Netherians have much larger numbers in thier army they have been forced into a stalemate by the Lion Riders of the Hundyr. These soldiers are elite, fast response cavalry. They use thier powerful mounts to jump into the midst of enemy units and then spring away, sewing havoc in enemy lines. Somewhere in my mind is this image of pikemen set to recieve a charge until these huge armored lions leap over the pikes and begin attacking the rear lines...
Here's what I know. They either ride dire lions or large lions with the warbeast template. I think the mount should be able to use its pounce attack and the knight should be able to fight as well. They don't cast spells. They have a good knowledge of tactics/formations so they should be able to get strategic-type effects for class abilities in addition to the whole mounted combat angle. I aslo don't want them to be worthless when not mounted. So they should be playable.
That said I love this idea, it was one of the first that I came up with for my campaign world but I have never (in two years) been able to come up with some crunch for it. WIll you guys help, please? I'm stuck, and I need to get this one done soon...they may be having some issue with a party soon... PLEASE HELP!
