You know what...I had forgotten that...there is one thought that crossed my mind though...
If the donkey has got animations...we could just use them to make some Cossack cavalry(on horses not donkeys of course lol) 

[BurroDiablo]

On donkeys? We'll, we could reskin them to look like... Shetland Ponies or something.

[Zerstörer]

Nah, we could model a horse and rig the same animations from the donkey...in theory...though that means they'll trot rather than galop but it could still look cool...possibly

1- Take donkey.

2- Put Russian Guard on it with PPSH.

3- Give it tank shock.

4-

5- SOVIET CAVALRY UNITS!

Im from Poland. In 1939 we had more horses in the army than Germans. Cavalry units had the best officers in the army.

Still allmost no unit was fighting while mounted on a horse.
As I remember there were only 3 cavalry charges in september 1939.

But an officer on a horse could be included.

This gives me so many ideas for mods!!

To bad i can't mod

[Seeme]

yea, we could have officers on horses!!!! They would be faster, and that's what we need in COH.

Or we could have transport horses. Moving streaky or guards from place to place. Constricts should be driving the horses, since allot of them were countrymen and lived on farms.

[Gerrit 'Lord Rommel' G.]

Well. An Officer on horse? Think that would be a better unit for russian cavalry then "general german officer corps" because most of the german officers were vain and drove by car over the battlefield

Who was talking Polish cavalry? And do you really want to perpetuate the "Polish cavalry charging German tanks" myth?

I was talking about Russian cavalry units. During the Uranus operation, Russian cavalry was used because they could keep up with tanks when the Russians still lacked motorized transports for their infantry.

[GamblerSK]

Myth? it wasnt myth but reality...

[vietlord]

quite a myth ! polish cav got on infantry, after the war, german did gooood propaganda ... tomorrow i ll give precise data

[cephalos]

eh, Polish army during septemeber '39 had a lot of cavalry,but it wasn't used in frontal assaults against german armour - everyone who imagines romantic charge with swords and lances against steel beasts must know, that our ary was using horses mainly as mean of transport - comparing with western countries, in poland wasn't so much good roads, so the best and most useful way to make soliders mobile was horse. That was logical and practical. Also this "cavalry" was realy mounted infantry, who after arriving was fighting by foot - also artilery and guns were transported by horse.

[Akalonor]

Maybe as a call-in?

[neosdark]

I had an idea, for a German Cossack Division (1st Cossack Division) that could ride in on horses and was a very fast capturing unit that had high moving accuracy but wasn't very powerful. It was a call in for the my Breaching Dogma in my first suggestion for the Ost. Maybe if we could create an animation rifle fire off that donkey and then reskin it to look like a Bashkir pony it could be a workable idea.

Th problem with mounted calvary is that they wouldnt take cover like infantry so they would be easy to kill.
