New Heroes Arise OOC (Re-Recruitment done)
- Thread starter Jemal
- Start date
(Note: I'm working from 3.5 materials here, so correct me if necessary...)
Both light horses & heavy horses are listed as acceptable animal companions from the druid list. Would it be acceptable to take a warhorse as my animal companion if I also pay the listed cost for the mount?
Edit: (I'm going for the Druid/Mounted Combat angle)

Well, Jemal is up for judging that, but I'll provide my thoughts on the subject:
Frankly, you can have ANY animal as your companion under the 3.0 rules, though you have to find one (or more), they don't appear out of thin air like the paladin's warhorse does. For most animals, you can assume you found them in the wild earlier during your life, but light and heavy warhorses, who are still animals, are not encountered in the wild, you have to get your hands on one in another way (like buying one or training one). Also keep in mind that a heavy warhorse takes up 4 HD slots, where the other horses only take up 3.

Pyrex - Sorry but the 3.0 SRD has been replaced with the 3.5 srd as far as I can tell.. i can't find the 3.0 version, just the d20 modern and 3.5
I'ld be willing to let you have a warhorse as your animal companion if you 'pay' for it. Your character wouldn't really have 'bought' it, more like raised and trained it yourself, and that amount of money would be for stuff like training supplies, previous stabling, etc. it just coincedentally was the same amount it would take to buy a warhorse..... yeah, that's it..
