What is with the weird fake 8 bit sound of a horse and foot steps from like Half Life 1
Snoopy101x
The sound was completely unnecessary.

It doesn't even match anything.

Is there a reason his hoof fur is a different color than his mane fur?

Belgian draft horse...
JennyIronTeeth
Shire horses? Someone had two outside my local supermarket. We were all buying carrots to feed them. Horses are great
TonyTonyChopp
You only see them on average once every 3 years at a church fete
Ringshadow
Not a shire. Likely an Ardennes. The build is all wrong for a shire, and the coloration too.

Not the same horse, the horse OP posted has a docked tail and is bay roan, some other possible dilute causing the mane color
Tbh could be a silver black horse that is also roan. But that would be a very rare color.
LadyTotesMcGoats
they docked the horses tail?
hardlyfatal
Likely braided it into itself to keep it tidy.
SerenityFirefly365
Too short for that sadly. The tail contains bone and skin much longer than what this gorgeous boi has. 1/2

They did indeed. Common practice with working horses and brutally gruesome.

Didn’t knights ride a draft horse of some sort?
anubricwookie
They kinda looked like draft horses, but they were very different. Still a large horse though much faster and a bit less ornery
KnucleheadFlow
Full plate armour wasn't as heavy as people think. Like 50-70 lbs I think.
No. They rode everything but. War horses (Destriers) were generally ANYTHING but draft stock!
TheRicM
No, they ride a free agent horse
?
BeckyLookAtHerButt
Something like Clydesdales?
Destriers were never draft descent and Clydesdales are a modern breed that wouldn't have existed for a Knight to even ride.
thatguyisalive
I believe they were called Destriers.
Neoeon
Pronounced, or so Ive heard, like Des-tree-ae.
tanebot
Because all the fancy people back then parlayed voos fran-swar.
...I have no earthly idea what youre talking about. Parlayed, yes, Ive seen Pirates of the Caribbean like everyone else. Voos fran-swar?
Correct! And they were NOT draft!
Draft horses draw vehicles behind them, hence the name. Draft = old timey past tense of "draw".
braechnov
Not likely. Draft horses are bred for labour. Knight would ride a war horse for battle (charger) or riding horse (palfrey) for travel.
JaydaCartel
Fresians, Vanners, something like that. Hot blooded, had the feathering (hair at the hoof) but not drafts. Though a poor knight may have....
I mean, they ARE big, but slow. So most knights wouldn't take a big, slow beasty onto the field if they had a hot tempered charger instead.
User1044
Belgian or percheron?
So, modern Jousters use Belgians, but both of those would have been too big and lumbering for mounted knights. They wouldn't have been able
To mount the big beasty while in armor, especially without a mounting block. Making them useless in a war scenario, sadly.
Thanks
You have to think, even modern armor made of lighter metals still adds 50 to 100 extra lbs, not to mention limiting mobility.
