Do your favourite wargaming rules allow this tactic?

gutsy effort, tried it myself on a well trained horse, was not that successful……lets just say it would of made funniest home videos…..

Beautifully turned out horses thumbs up

PBI allows cavalry to fire mounted but without going into detail about how high in – or on – the saddle they are!

Great find, Arteis …

In the second photo, the horse is thinking "Yeah, all I have to do is buck once and you're history. And don't even THINK of firing a Panzerfaust…"

Yeah, lots of rules allow for firing while mounted.

Once had a horse that I could ride by standing on the saddle at a gentle trot – I wasn't trying to shoot anyone though, just searching for cattle! And more importantly, no-one was shooting at me!

Great find on the photos.

Does anybody remember the scenes from "Battle of Neretva" where partisans are hip firing mg-42s on horseback?

P would like to see them actualy firing like that, rather than just posing for the camera. Also I wonder about how much effort is going into staying in position and how much is left to aim wiuth.

Still, great find on the pictures.
