    A horse? Seriously? No way can this guy win against a horse. Have you seen horses? They’re huge.

      When people say stuff like this, I assume they never lived much outside of cities, and never had much contact with animals, besides pets. Seriously, a horse? Even smaller animals can be a challenge. Most animals are stronger and/or faster than us, and have fangs, claws, etc.

        A horse is just an intense will to die on four legs. You can defeat a horse by feeding it after it runs around for a little while.

    Let me try, let me try:

    Lemmings, would you rather fight 100 duck sized horses or 1 horse sized duck?

      Obviously the duck-sized horses, that’s not even a fight. What amounts to pretty much a t-rex, on the other hand…

        Nah, ducks have hollow bones, making them pretty crap in physical combat against creatures that don’t. As long as you can avoid the beak, you should be fine.

        Duck-sized horses, on the other hand, would still be faster and stronger than humans even if it’s scaled 1:1 relative to horse size vs duck size and there’s a hundred of them! You’d be swarmed in no time!

      If that’s an option, might as well allow guns and then humans win every time.

    Note, they are actually much larger than the average silicon version of it. The largest I could find was 43 cm long, which is OK to take. But normally, they’re ~1 m when e… oh wait, you mean “take” as in “win against”, nvm.
