Ok, then why are orc cavs faster than dwarf cavs? Orcs are easily heavier than dwarves, they are known to wield heavy weapons and wear heavy armour and I can't think of a single game that featured orcs riding horses so they can't be any better at it than dwarves.

Technically the orcs are riding giant wolves

Also, I'd say Dwarf armor is heaver than Orc. Orcs may not even wear much.

We don't wear any, we have an excellent battle strategy.
A: charge at the enemy and slaughter the opposition, victory feasts at Shuug's place.
B: our armies are destroyed, however the bodies formed an impassable wall +1 to Orcs.

Well if we're going to go into the orc lore, I say we go into dwarf lore too and give them steampunk style mechanical horses. They might still be slow but at least then they'll look cooler than everyone else.

Dwarf infantry is so fast! For their short size, how come stalwarts scoot at 8 sq/hr? Human men-at-arms move at 5!
Down with the ponyriders! They are better off without their ponies! *jealous*

I believe that Orcs ride giant wolves and that Dwarves ride mountain ponies or donkies/asses...
(let the Dwarven ass riding jokes begin...)

I'll go first.
Why do dwarves hate horse back riding? Because when looking you can't tell where the ass starts or finishes!
A human measures a horse using hands. A dwarf measures a horse using a step ladder!

Hire an ogre that will throw your stumplets in the general direction! Or make friends with a Daedalon and ask him if he'll give you a ride :P
