Re: Unequipable Armor?

With the wings the knight would have to lift the mount with his leggs.

And this is a problem, for someone who intends to be a God? Why, he could probably lift the horse with his [censored]. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

With his tongue. Wanna be gods have to have almost as much exercise for their tongues as used car salesmen and politicians. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

That's what I was thinking... the squashed horse issue. However I thought I was able to do so, but the only time I tried was in the original Dominions, not Doms 2.

PvK <hr /></blockquote>Yeah, me too. You know, if this is the case, devs could as well add another small ability-type icon, indicating this "squashed horse" restriction.

Something like 4 horse's legs spreaded in all directions, from under the huge monolith-type object... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Unequipable Armor?

I've never been able to equip Monolith armor on horsemen, in Dom-PPP. Haven't tried in Dom2. I remember equipping Aseftik's Armor on a mounted hero (again in Dom-PPP), but I suppose there is some way for the devs to program items so that they are not equippable for certain types of units.
