Objectively, there's no difference between a Connie and a Teke, or a Shetland and a Hanoverian. Their skill sets are pretty much identical, and the main difference is that one eats less (which is great, IMO). But I will say that ponies are owning it in the NIB world- two breeds with a star? Heck yeah!

Yeah I get so sick of doing speed rides with Arabs and Welsh, I seriously hope these new changes will make them *much* easier than before. A lot of the breeds have speed as a top 3, and I get reluctant these days to choose them because of it
I must say I like the sound of these new features, although if they do bring out with the EC, I'm not looking forward to buying 40 more boxes just to reach 100, for optimum prestige. No wonder the price of them is so high at the moment, people must be stocking up haha. And needing 50% full means you'd need at least 50 horses for that prestige. I'm not sure about anyone else, but originally getting even 19 divines and one high-skilled horse for the current prestige and high lessons was hard enough, just need to add another 30 good horses / divines on that. Oh this is going to be fun

Found few spoilers from CA forum.
New Divine: Click to display There is a picture for Rain now. Cloud still has holders. And some other things: Click to display Some new updates from the test server Message from MeOw Thank you for testing as well as your feedback about the latest game updates. Based on feedback shared with the team, the following adjustments are made to the latest features: 1. A counter displaying the number of coverings done with Pestilentia(Plague, for those who don't know) is now added. This will allow you to see if there is a cover left to transmit the coat. 2. The end of boarding date is now displayed on the EC > Boxes page. 3. When a box is destroyed, the shower goes back into inventory. Thank you, MeOw

Just some things I found on the UK server:
Click to display It is rumored that Rain will be a girl and can breed with Geyser to have the foal, Cloud. Here is a picture of Rain(keeping in mind the name is in French) Pluie(Rain) The Seal of Apocalypse supposedly can be used on anything but donkeys. It is rumored on the French server that the next series of Divines will be African Divines. Somebody said that you can finally breed cows, pretty sure they were joking but I'm not sure. Many people on all servers are going to be happy with these new Water Divines, one player on the INT server also said horwrse has come out with new Water Divines every December. None of this information was mine which would consider this a secondary or 3rd source.

I don't know if this needs a spoiler, but just in case.
Click to display Rain should have a relative, sister, cousin, I don't know. But it should be Storm, or Hurricane. But that if kind of Air Divine/ Water Divine. |

Click to display I have heard that apparently yes in ECs we will be able to breed cows for leather. "Your equestrian center's location defines the main resource you can gather: Sand (beach), Iron (mountain), Wood (forest) Production cycles are added to allow harvesting, item crafting and item selling. ***You can breed cows to produce leather. Item crafting is now handled via workshops You can now add improvements to existing infrastructures in order to improve their quality or performance. Lessons are now called missions. Missions are an opportunity for horses to earn skills, for the horse owner to earn Equus, and for the equestrian center to earn resources. A tutorial is available upon creating an equestrian center. Workhorses are added to the game Complete overhaul of the Secret Market And possibly other features that will come along the way"

Thanks modelhorsemad.

Click to display There is a speculation on the INT server that the next divine in the GC will be able to breed with Tianma.
|
This may be the next divine Longma.

Another dragon? This one's really pretty

My poor Osiris is getting so lonely.

Does anyone know what Longma's name means? I'm assuming that the 'long' means dragon, since both Huanglong and Longma have it in their names, and they're both based on dragons. Anyways, the new one looks interesting; it would be nice to have a female Divine to balance out all of the males, even if she can't breed.
|
@luthien Tinuviel
I found out the Longma is an actual name of a classically depicted dragon. You were correct with long meaning dragon. Ma means horse, Longma was a fabled winged horse with dragon scales in Chinese mythology. |
Well, I looked it up and found two things:
Click to display A: Longma Web definitions Longma was a fabled winged horse with dragon scales in Chinese mythology. Seeing a longma was an omen of a legendary sage-ruler, particularly one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longma B: There is an online dictionary called the Longma online dictionary.
|
Adding on to the post above(Please keep in mind that none of this info is mine)
Click to display The Chinese word longma combines long 龍 "dragon" and ma 馬 "horse". Compare hema 河馬 (lit. "river horse") "hippopotamus" and haima 海馬 ("sea horse") "seahorse". In addition to naming the mythic creature, longma 龍馬 "dragon horse" can mean "an eminent person" and occurs in the four-character idiom longma jingshen 龍馬精神 "vigorous spirit in old age".

Click to display Oooooh another divine I just must have! And not just because she might be able to breed with Tianma, she's gorgeous! Next BC we have to make it go for as long as possible so I can afford her

For more chinese info , adding on to sarahope78, these characters aren't used frequently these days. These chinese characters are complicated ones, nowadays most people use the simplified version.

Such beautiful artwork on him? I suppose. Really nice name.
|
Not sure if anyone said anything about this but
Click to display It is said that Tienma's mate is going to be called Fiemna and the foal is Hanxema. But it could be unjust as people are not believing that that is true. (By the way, info from INT server) Also, here is a(Funny, joking) picture of cow seeds I'm doubting this is going to happen but if anyone has any information regarding this that it is true I would love to hear it.
|
By Retired breeder, 17th October 2014 06:18:29
It would make sense if it was Feima, flying horse, but Hanxema? Because It doesn't make up any Chinese words...
|
@sarahope78
I believe it was a joke that has gotten quiet out of hand on the int server. I find it quite amusing. |
By Retired breeder, 17th October 2014 14:18:14
Okay I was just thinking, you know how when our reserves are merged and stacked we will only be able to produce food not buy it (eg oats) I was thinking, since it takess o much tiem to grow loads of oats would it make more sense to buy thrm in bulk on the breeders account before it merges with ec? Or is growing them still less costly?..
|
I haven't heard about not being able to buy food any more, where does it say that?
I assumed we would still be able to buy it or else noobies who can't run an EC yet and who board in ECs that don't provide food will be in trouble. Unless of course Howrse gets rid of the waiting period for noobies to start the ECs... My understanding is that howrse will no longer provide items for sale - everything we need will be produced by players and sold to the shop in the same way that we can sell our horses droppings and they appear in the EC store. It's going to be an interesting time... Might be worth stocking up just in case though.
