When I was walking around with my over 150 ping I noticed a tincan with a plated charger. This should never occur and I will copy and paste my post from the oasis forums on why they should be outlawed and not included on any map, especially with the impending wipe on a ROLEPLAY server.
-----------------------------------------------
Charger horses and anything more heavily armored (fuckin plated chargers really?) than them should no longer be included on PW maps.
In fact, the heaviest horse available should be a war horse.
"But WHY remove chargers Andrei!? The only way I will ever kill you is by couching you in the back or horse bumping you to death!"
Simple, the current warband mechanics make them way too overpowered for their prevalency on PW and against really anything else found in mount and blade.
For example, even if a faction takes the proper anti cav measures in getting pikes, archers/cbows, and is completely on point with their cav stops in the open field, these things have an ungodly amount of health and are obnoxious with their armor glances, causing them to end up winning anyway.
In competitive native, they are extremely rare and are almost never seen in scrims because they are very expensive and no players can afford them in time to be used for their team. A cav player on a clan that chose Swadia as their faction would need to get a shitton of kills without dying or team killing before the four rounds of a set are up and the gold bonuses are reset. Here they aren't banned from competition because they are basically the equivalent of an AC 130 killstreak for my Modern Warfare 2 fans, and very, very, rarely appear.
However PW is a completely different story. Here, any fucker can afford a charger and a lance and spam it to their heart's content.
