If it is the DoD1 prerelease repaint, that must mean it's Uc/C! Nice! | |

| | No way it's a common. I'd bet UC. But that's very interresting if it's true. Means they're serious about new "Mounted" rules for just about any medium or smaller mini. | |

How does the store owner know this?
Dave
Well I don't know exactly but he must have received some sort of notification of the event which mentioned the repaint. I know him and the store enough to know he wouldn't have mentioned it unless he was pretty sure. Er.. does it matter?
Yeah I got a scoop. | |

And good news. An unmounted mount is high on many people's wish lists. A repaint indicates that it's most likely uncommon. | |

It's probably old news but I just heard from the owner of a FLGS that the pre-release repaint for desert of desolation will be a warhorse! Very cool!
I am CONFIRMING THIS. I stopped by my gaming store and they said the same thing. It's OFFICAL! | |

I can. I don't attack the PC's every time they make camp, but it happens often enough that having mini's to represent where their horses are would be quite useful to me.

| It's great news indeed, but didn't you guys see it coming? I love that we're getting it as a repaint as well though, great choice!
I guess it was one of those genconreports which stated that there were like three or four riderless mounts in the DoDe set for use with the new mounting rules. IIRC it was Guy Fullerton who said these new mounting rules were very good.

| I'm curious if the riderless mounts will have a medium-base-sized flat spot for you to put the rider figure so that it's visually clear whether someone is riding it and who the rider is.

| YES! I got a promo warhorse before anyone else! The guy at the store told me he got it from a Chinaman and he sold it to me for a low low price. Is it strange that it doesn't have a base?
It doesn't look very war-like either....

This doesn't work well in RPG.
If you have more than one horse on the map at a time, how do you know which rider is on which horse?

I thought that was someone's random speculation, rather than fact.

As for whether the mechanics are speculation or verified, I remember it being said by an official source, but I'm too lazy to look it up. So, speculate all you like. :) | |
