And even then, does he really need to waste time having the horse attack? It'll probably miss, and it's damage value is pretty lame, too.(If a mount has Wild Cohort, now the GM can target it because it's not going to die so easy, and so it doesn't look like the player's horse is being picked on. Still, I don't want to turn a mount into another character. This goes doubly at lower levels when a warhorse might actually outfight some of the PCs. Shouldn't they be taking away XP or something?)In any event, fewer horses means fewer map problems. Since I'm not running DnD anymore, I don't need to deal with 90 foot monks zipping all over the place <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />When feasible. The NPC shouldn't hold back on dishing out Fireballs unless they've got some equally nasty way of defeating the PCs without hurting the horses. Unless the NPCs are bandits, of course.There are DMs who don't like the way DnD dragons are presented.</blockquote>
