I like all the ideas but would also like to be able to play an instrument while riding. A traveling bard/hunter type thing.

How about making some of the bigger, sturdier mounts slow, while allowing the player to use normal attacks from the saddle, and make some of the smaller, leaner mounts really fast, but require the player to put their weapon away and use both hands to ride them?
Never thought of this one. I wouldlove to see themdo something like this!
It would not only let players beeffective in mounted combat, but give players the extra mount speed they want (when they want it).
5 stars for you!

mounts do need to be improved and improved greatly.
I dont think the idea of being able to store stuff in your mounts saddle bags is a viable one cause where would that stuff go when your pet is stored? allowing a pet to be stored whilst carrying a load of stuff would give the CH a big holding advantage over everybody else and then the jedi would cry and they would get "force death" where all they have to do is look at your mount and it dies along with all the stuff its carrying.
being able to use specials whilst on your mount is a good idea, thinkback to theold western films you have seen."billybob cowpoke" can always aim and shoot whilst riding.
although if this gets added make it a master skill.
mounts should be able to attack with us on they're back, but this should only work for CH's if i can get my bantha to "trick1" while sitting on his back why cant i get him to attack?
some form of combat armor or weapon would be veryvery kewl. as a previous poster has said already, "I can see the jousting now" just think of CH PvP jousts. how kewl would that be?

Were does the stuff go when you store your droid that is holding 10 items? It would be the same thing, they would be stored on the data pad and the only way to get to it would be to call that droid or pet. So if that rifle of unGodly Might was in your Cu pa's saddle bag, and he's in your data pad and you are in the middle of combat, oh well.

This I can agree with, would be perfect and fun.

Storing items in mounts wouldwork the same as storage droids do now. Most people I know have a handful of 10 item droids in thier datapad at all times, adding 30-50 more items to the amount they can carry.
