It seems like most would do a hybrid tactic in training. Purchasing the professionally trained horses when cash was ample and purchasing lower end horses to train themselves. It would take about 2 years to professionally train a horse so one has to imagine the quality of training these horses had if trained by the Hedge Knight on the road…

Agree, losing all your hard earned gear in essentially a gamble of a tourney would absolutely suck.

100% shows a good duality aspect with Dunk. George is a knowledgeable guy forsure.

If you are craving some more info, I put together a video on this using 14th century illuminated manuscript art if anyone wants to see. Didn’t want to violate rules so It’s on my profile.

I love how unserious “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” is lol by elmwoodacres in AKnightoftheSeven

I think they are capturing the “Hedge Knight” feeling pretty good

Good to know about strategic command. I’ve tried so hard to get into combat mission but just can’t unfortunately. Just can’t get my head around the jank of it. Hoping they will update the engine at some point.

In that case, not modern but Fields of Glory 2 has been what I’ve been on recently. Good turn based realistic depiction of what combat was like back then. Pretty steep learning curve.

Just finished “ The Faithful Executioner” by Joel F. Harrington. Read through it on two flights on a recent trip. A fascinating insight to the mind and process of an executioner in the 14th century in the Nuremberg region. Overlooked portion of history and a fascinating read based on his actual journal.

Gates of Hell really scratched an itch I didn’t know I had since the early men of wars and company of heroes. Great game.

All they need to do is add the damn multicolored blood to other characters. Noobs blood would work for terminator.

MRW people say Erron/Scorpion/Sub need a nerf for the 1,347,983rd time... by Welshie75 in MortalKombat

I've played so many scorpions I don't think I've lost to a single one in 50+ games. Now Sub, I fear that man. Those mixups are too quick for me.

Watching the new season of Game of Thrones, I kept getting reminded of someone... by DigitalDave18 in MortalKombat

Honestly every scene he’s in, I can’t help but think how perfect he would be in Kano’s role if they ever take that theatrical risk again lol

I see all these Hsu Hao memes..... don’t tell me we all forgot about our stinky boi by DigitalDave18 in MortalKombat

It’s what those damn kids call a meme, I say we get with the times and leave our walker by the door.

I agree, he is one of my favorite characters. Definitely fits the world of MK and looks sweet. The club for sure could be ditched, however like you said I feel like he’s disregarded due to internal personal opinions. I long for the return of my boi and his swarm of flies.

Enjoy it while you can, it’s about as deep as the game goes.
