Rough Rider models=bleh!

[Sir James Bloodfang]

Yea! You know, why don't they use machine horses or something? or maybe other animals like elephants or rhinos?

I've seen Rough Riders on Cold Ones. That is one way of making them look cooler. It is also better than using a horse.

I put the pictures up to show JUST because its a reg horse, Doesn't mean it can't be cool. I think it has to have a little imagination and a good execution but you can pull it off. And you could make the motorcycles and have a "future" feel.

Again I would remind folks that we are talking about the Imperium of Man, a military force who will not hesitate in throwing anything they can get their hands on into battle. This is why we have ratling, ogryn, mutant, genetically created, horse-riding, clone and penal regiments laced throughout everything that is the Imperium as we know it.

So yes, Mongolians do fit perfectly into the Imperium, more so than some other things.
