Arikas 11-02-05, 09:02 PM	hmm maybe i can work it with my dm that i can have leadership instead of a mount, thats one of my feats anyways.
Setherial 11-03-05, 05:04 AM	actually in our group we've never used a paladin mount (other then for transportation perhaps) and it's still an excellent class. I guess mounted combat is just not something that comes up in our games :)

Unless your game deals a lot with open spaces a special mount is almost one of those useless abilities, although the Tunnel Fighting feats make mounted combat in confined areas a lot more appealing.
