ok, here was another idea. possibly maybe have mounts aquire exp as well and level a bit. once again, i understand this may take a little coding but it is an idea.
not huge bonuses, but just another thing to work for. i personal prefer to work for things rather than the kill exp kill exp thing. so, i just think it would be neat to have the battle mounts get the exp portion for levels.
mounts exp

Or open guild dealing with mounted combat. (just to throw it out there).
Seems reasonable, although having a high riding skill i understand helps alot with combat bonuses, such as whirling blades skill accualy working from horseback. Perhaps a Mounted Combat skill or some such that is only learnable by doing and helps your mount fight better.
However, if using your idea, it would make the trade of mounts more intresting to the economy. Could have players who go out, train mounts to have all the bonuses, and then sell for profit.
