Thread: WITTR Cavalry speed mod for AoC

    Default WITTR Cavalry speed mod for AoC

    Tired of your Frankish horse being run down by spearmen? Tired of your Lombard lancers not being able to catch skirmishers? Well now the cavalry in AoC moves like it should, like an actual horse, especially one without the heavier armor of many horse in Rome and later medieval eras.

    I tested 4 versions and this one feels right. No hit points, armor or morale was adjusted, nothing but speed, acceleration and fatigue (slightly) they will still suffer from javelins and spear units, but they now can actually move about the battlefield like, well, actual horses.



    This is a movie file so it will always be running if it is in the data folder, you don't need mod manager nor does it need to be listed in steam mods.

    nice mod, maneuvering cav feels much better and natural now, but. can you make more differences between each weight class? maybe something like: light cav 100, Medium 95, Heavy 90, Very Heavy 85, just a recomendation, thanks for your mod

    The very light and light horse are faster in run speed and acceleration than the heavy and very heavy, but not as much as they used to be. The reasoning behind bringing them closer together is the lack of heavy horse armor in this age restricting speed between classes, the amount of weight added to a horse between light and very heavy is much less than it was 4-500 years later.

    Also the pure specialized destrier had yet to make it's appearance, the difference between a very light horse and a medium in the armies of the 700's would be very little, as horses were raised from each county and shire by what they had available.

    This is more of a realism mod.

    However I may make another version soon for people to choose from.

    I've updated it to make the very light .5 faster than the previous file, and thus light .5 faster than medium. A change of 1 full point is visibly quite dramatic.
