Imagine three thousand Persian lancers, thundering up to a wretched little earthen wall, guarded by not more than a thousand terrified, pathetic, wretched infantrymen. They sweep the enemy aside, right? Like an avalanche! —An Oblique Approach, David Drake and Eric Flint

"The horses in Skryim just do not give a fuck. If there's anything within a half-mile radius that means you harm, the horse will not rest until it's been powderized. Except when you're sitting on the horse, and since you can't attack from horseback either you can jolly well sit there looking dopey while wolves chew your stirrups off."
—Yahtzee, on the horses of The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim
