Message: <blockquote data-quote="Greylock" data-source="post: 1868409" data-attributes="member: 19056">I have been playing a Mounted Combat specialist for quite a few monthes now, but something "new-to-me-at-least" has come up as I try to figure out a new, and unusual, mount. My first mount has reached Legendary status in our game, even though my char was/is low level. She bit an Ogre to death. Bards the length of Maissen are singing the Tale of Avarshan and the Ogre already. But in spite of this, I was always conservative with her in game. I rarely used her as a weapon, other than helping deliver my lance to it's target. Her weapons, hoof and bite, I mean. Did everything in my power to keep her alive,  and avoided using her attacks. She is gone now, having passed far too young while helping my char protect the party in a tactical retreat. I had another unremarkable mount for a game or two, but my benevolent DM has provided me with a new mount. This one is hardier, stronger, and has a strong attack. It will not be so necessary for me to hold this one back. So this invites the question that has never occurred to me before: Can my mount attack when my char calls for a Mounted Charge? This mount has a Head-Butt attack, which seems like it would be far more complimentary my lance/sword attack than a hoof or bite attack. Here's hoping my most illustrious DM still doesn't read the Rules Forum. He already freaked when our Druid got Call Lightning. ;p</blockquote>
