If you have a PC with a very high AC score, making it difficult to challenge him, using an NPC with Improved Disarm on occasion is not uncalled for. The GM has to challenge the PCs.I've run into this twice. Not in actual DnD gaming, because horses will inevitably get killed by Fireballs, but in D20 Wheel of Time and D20 Modern.In the former, the GM flat out told us that, if we use horses, don't make them attack. (We were low level, so horses could match us in terms of combat ability.) Otherwise they'll get shot or eaten. He kept his word that he wouldn't kill them if we didn't attack. We didn't have them attack, and they didn't die. Something similar in Modern, but not quite so heavy-handed.I'm guilty of something similar (in my Modern campaign) ... they have names. They're just impossible for the players to remember. I had to stop having the PCs adventure in Arabic countries for this reason.</blockquote>
