Getting rid of the meadows is just another way they want people to be dependent on the ec and make us spend money.

What's up with...

the picture mentioning Shires?
Are they a breed we already have, just called something else on the French version?
Or are they the drafties I've been waiting for ever since I joined default smiley (7)




Shires are a breed of Draft Horse

Click to display
All other breeds listed in that image are just normal horses that are on that server as far as I can tell and translate from the few French names

If it's another name for gypsy vanners, why would they add it as a draft breed as we already have gypsies?

Guessing something is getting ready to happen.

Someone please bring up the subject if scarecrows going back in inventory if field is destroyed, at least a limited one fir the ones on medium meadows. I along with others, did not put scarecrows on medium meadows, howrse put them there. I have scarecrows that I paid passes for on useless mesdows. I had put them on large mesdows, and on thst update they got put on medium mesdows.

I want to destroy those meadows but really my my scare crows back on large meadows. Showers go back to inventory, it would mske sense thst the scarecrows would to.

They are not adding it as a Draft

Click to display
I did not make that image, I just found it - but you'll notice a few other regular horses names in that circle as well (like the Shetland, who is about as far from a Draft as we can get default smiley ;)). The circle has the Draft Breed (Shire) dead center...I might make an updated image and just highlight the one Draft breed however so that its a bit clearer for those who are unfamiliar with various breeds

Sometime in the future after the February updates to the EC

At present time - it is unknown what breed(s) they will be, but

Click to display
A screen shot showing the Shire as a horse teams can choose as their breed has shown up...Potentially indicating that this will be a breed that will be added, as well as that they will be horses we can care for and not just an item for EC's like Calves for Cutting Comps. of Western ECs

jlmiller - Tinker is the name of them on the French server (Equidow, where the shots are from) so in a way, on the French server - yes, they are renamed.

On here, they will remain as Gypsy Vanners as far as I know

Multiple countries/cultures call gypsys, tinker horses, for example, look on the Schleich model horse website. Depending on where you are, different items can be called different things

Gypsies are also called Irish Cobs. So you have Tinker, Irish Cob, Gypsy Vanner, and sometimes just Vanner....

That's quite a popular quote, even cliched, but I disagree. Just because it's not broken, doesn't mean you shouldn't change it.
The goal is to improve, not to settle.

That's why we've got cars instead of horses for transportation. I'm sure those horses weren't broken. default smiley ;)

We cannot say positively, but it looks like it just might be that way. Keep your fingers crossed!

I've honestly lost count how many times you've practically repeated that.

Dramatic much?
The tiny tiny increase of fodder usage will most certainly *not* close the doors of "most" ECs. default smiley (o)

I have no idea where you are possibly going with your little rants. You've said the same things over and over! Got any new points or ideas that might convince us more?

This little face: default smiley :@

Seems like it based on:

Click to display
I found these two images while hunting around the Internet (they are shots from Equideow - the French Howrse). Since some were confused by the original image, I highlighted the Breed in question, and translated some of the other breed names (as there was some confusion about a handful of them). Also, keep in mind this shot is from the Oldest Howrse Server, and also has breeds that we do not have here (of course, that might change in time but who knows)

The Create a Team page - since teams breed and care for horses, the fact that a Draft is showing up in the option for a Team seems to mean that we will be able to care for them like other horses (note nothing is known on how they will work with breed (if crosses will be allowed, or if they will be like Donkeys and can only breed with other Drafts)

The Breeder of Each Species trophy - note that the number shown is one higher than the current number...This seems to indicate that Draft will be a new species.

Note that both of these images were chalked up to being a hiccup in the system that caused them to show early. (Think of it like how the Balios Trophy updated to saying X/6, yet only showed the 5 different ones before the 6th one (Volcanic) was added to the game)

Other than these little bits of information - Nothing else has been revealed or is known about Drafts (So which breed(s), what skills, how they breed, how they look, etc.)

Y'know, horse fan, there's a saying that says you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. I don't know if that's actually true for catching flies, but the metaphor seems to apply nicely to real life default smiley (8)
