Suggestion for Horses for 1.6

Hi all,

I have a suggestion for horses and PvP for when 1.6 goes live. We currently get loads of Alliance Points which we can spend on siege weapons etc. etc. How about if we could spend some AP to "rent" horses for travel in Cyrodiil. A lot of new players getting into PvP are put off by the long distances and are of limited use to groups if they cannot reach the group rally point in time. I for example haven't bought a horse yet (I am relatively new to the game) and I keep running to groups only to die and then have to trek back again.

If we could rent a horse that would be available only in Cyrodiil so it doesn't affect anything else, say from keeps or from siege merhants or quartermasters, then that would help tremendously. I suppose war horses could be bred mainly for speed in this case so we could all get where we need to faster.

It wouldn't affect players who already have horses or they could also rent them if they are faster than their own steeds.

Please feel free to express your own opinion on why this would work or not or how it could be improved.
Thanks

    Other than maxing out your inventory space, there really is little reason to have a horse outside of Cyrodiil.

    That's an interesting idea! I remember how long it took me to save up for a horse as a new PVE player and can see how it would help people who prefer to spend most of their time in Cyrodiil and have a hard time building up cash in PVP. If a rental wouldn't work for some mechanical reason, perhaps ZOS would consider allowing people to purchase a horse at the Cyrodiil stable with alliance points instead of gold.

    I also thought buying a horse with Alliance Points would be great but then that might present a few problems? I dunno
