I second Vlad's Company stuff.
I'm Commanding 3 stands of bandits and one of Sagitarii

Does a feat like mounted combat have a place in a mass combat setting?

What is the Ideal of the Company?
We always complete the job we are paid for.

What is the Bond of the Company?
The company is our family. I would put my life on the line for any of them.

What is the Flaw of the Company?
Greed, after the company coin is the only thing that matters.

I like these, but prefer the name Thateous came up with.

Well, you get your attacks and actions even if you're the Commander of a Stand, so yes: if you lead a charge into a group of dismounted soldiers, you're gaining advantage to hit. Do enough damage and you can literally wipe out an entire Stand on your own.

Targeting your horse basically gives you extra HP in the sense that your mount can die (well, be Banished since it's a summoned creature), but you're still up in the fight.

And if you're leading a charge and someone tosses a fireball or shoots a ballista your way, you're going to want a mount that can dodge it and resist the damage better.

Just got to the part in ua where it mentions that if your stand attacks with reach they hit twice. Guess I'm taking heavy cavalry. Will upgrade them with shields as well a melee weapon.

I like the other name as well just giving ideas so we have options. I also though of the Shadow Legion and Company of the Wolf. What we need to do is get a couple ideas then vote on the best. Unless of course someone mentions a name wa all agree upon.

Just a note, had to make a few Merc adjustments. Of note is that I got the AC of Peltasts wrong (should have been 17, this is now corrected), and I gave the Bersekir an additional Intimidation bonus (since they are very scary). I'll be posting the "Hiring Hall" in the RG thread as well for my first post, should make it easier to find these guys.
