This may seem a bit obvious but I was courious, in the PHB there is a distinction between a normal old heavy horse and a heavy warhorse. Is it a different breed or just different training. If it's just different training it would seem logical that I could get a normal heavy horse and train it for war, make it then a warhorse. Of coarse noting the large differance in price, I assume thats not an option. If you happen to know, please share that info.

In game terms a horse is a horse and you can't change him.

In logical terms War Horses were bred for strenght, trained from youth and selected from other horses.
You could'nt train a horse for war in a couple of weeks.
