well, I have one in .shp format....why not use it?
It could be used as a like russian police guy, or if the russians are suppose to be devastated by war, the horse could be a cheap alternative to the motor. _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT
In CIV 3 I smashed some opponent's tanks with that guy:

Seriously, how could an horse be usefull in a battlefield ? Apart for being food for the soldier who killed it. _________________ - Crap Forum Leader -

Hmm, we'll take him, might be useful for a parade that gets pwnsed like that chinese one in generals. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
I won't use them as buildable units, just for parades and maybe as russian "police" units. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
Still,russian police?What the hell,its Soviet Union.
We talk about militia,not police.THAT is how it happened in the east.
Plus,I don't think that this is possible to be seen in Soviet Union,I mean,they were total anti-imperialists,I can't imagine seeing this,to be honest. QUICK_EDIT
I was thinking about parade stuff (like we have the horse guard for ceremonies outside buckingham palace but take light tanks when they go to war) or mounted police. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
Stalin's gone, he dies in the rubble of Moscow. Tte mod is 70's/80's, assuming it takes the world 20 years to get over a world war (1918-1939) This would leave the world ready to fight the first tiberium war and let me have a balance of technology and some retro.
If you have 50's infantry though... I'll take them gladly _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
Erm I think a horse unit WOULD be good for parades etc, would be pretty damn cool... and yeah, this Soviet Union can be pretty much anything, especially after the death of Stalin. QUICK_EDIT

And as we (we as the mod team) want to make the mod realistic (realistic meaning more RA1 style instead of RA2), horses won't fit Where there horses in RA1? No.
Also, I think this is more of a discussion for in the staff area... QUICK_EDIT
Yeah, I see where you're going, it has to retain some aspects for continuity but apart from that...
Anyways, rats said something a little while ago,
"TD Brought us the battlefield, TS was supposed to bring us the world around it"
I Intend to bring the battlefield, the world around it, and a little more detail inside of it. I just need Ares/RP2 for some of it, no I'm not doing cratering and TW style support powers, although I do dislike the "Point and stuff dies" approach of RA2's traditional armoury.
Dafool? If you've got it ready please PM it to me, thanks.
Dutchy, it will be in as a "civ" unit people can script in and such. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
Hey guys, add the guys on horses for some covert operation for the Soviet missions.
Remember those american Spec.Ops. in Afghanistan back in the days? They were painting targets for airstrikes on the back of horses...
Horses don't need fuel, no spare parts, don't make a lot of noise, and they only need grass and water.
(And Firefly-nerds must have noticed that too.) QUICK_EDIT
The Mujihadeen used horses and they beat the russians, maybe they would be useful for those "KILL THE VILLAGERSSS!!!!1!!11!!1!" missions, they'd be faster and have a longer line of sight than normal infantry, they'd be more vulnerable to gunfire but hell, if a horse stamps on you you die. right? Why not make them weak vehicles? It might work quite well for campaign missions. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
Stalin is dead, and horses can't carry enough armour to stop modern weaponry anyways. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
Chrono suits dont exist Muahaha!!! They were made up and now they've been un-made up
And I don't know if the chronosphere/iron curtain will be making a return in MV, it's likely but I don't know how to make them "disappear" at the end... :S _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
For some reason I thought this mod was taking place around world war 1, when horses were used to some extent....
But a horseman in modern times would be either a police officer or in a parade.
But in the game, since units don't die from 1 bullet, the reason horses became obsolete (ie they died easily and could not hide), is technically aleived. But w/e, it's your mod, I'm just trying to hand out my units. _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT

We're still thinking up the lore...storyline...plot...whatever you call it. _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT
Lets call it our Chronology! I don't think any more time travel will occur, I'm thinking that einstein will take the secrets of the chronosphere to his grave with him. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
Hmmm... imagining half as big (MV inf are 75% of RA2). That'd be cool actually Yes please. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
There are american cops who ride horses too. They mainly work in the cities. _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT
The Brits, most european countries and americans have them, and theres no harm in it, they're not exactly polce though, i think they call them the milita. _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
Do any of you know what it's like to face a man on a horse, whne you're on your feet? Mounted policemen are the biggest threat to any protest. So, if you have any missions with civil unrest, then hell yes, put the cossack in. If not, no. QUICK_EDIT
Well this is Communism we're talking about, there'll be at least one, probably stop the riots from reaching the kremlin or wipe out the dissidents or something... _________________ Yes, work on MV continues. It is not forgotten. QUICK_EDIT
or plot twist. After the communist revolution, The bolshevik (spelling) outlawed the cossacks (who were allied with the Tzar) as a privledged class. So the cossacks now hate the Communist goverment. When the Soviets go to war with the allies, the cossacks become rebels and fight with the allies. They ride horses because they have been denied access to more modern technology.
Or they can just be riot police... _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT
Riot police at most. Despite being quite fierce to unarmed civilians, you do realise it's very easy to kill a mounted person with even a bottle or rock, thworn the correct way? QUICK_EDIT
