I'm pretty sure that something related to how civs work now is causing this.

Might be related to how Toady fixed mounts for goblins. He might have made mounts more common across the board and now we have horses galore.

The amount of horses seems to almost always be a round number like 3600 (or something very close to that, like 3598), though. I don't think the explanation is quite that simple.

True. I still can't help but feel like it's in some way related. If there was some sort of hardcoded mount fix I can see it spilling over into other civ populations and blammo! Perfectly rounded horse populations in the thousands.

Bugs from Normal Games: "The game stutters for six seconds before crashing."
Bugs from Broken Games: "The lighting is weird and the characters have no faces."
Bugs from Dwarf Fortress: "The horses outnumber us. I have seen settlements with a thousand horses to a man. I have seen them in the deepest caverns. They are everywhere. Liberate te ex equus."

[Urlance Woolsbane]

Yeah, I thought the herd of horses I saw outside that mead hall were unusual.

Now to see if I can make Forgotten Beasts as ubiquitous!

Sigged!

There's probably a horse population cap depending on the size of the site to prevent a world destroying horsplosion.

[BoogieMan]

I saw a huge herd of them in adventure mode. More so than any other single type of creature I've ever seen at once by far.

PTW.

Last version in its early days had exploding birds, gods that woyld destroy the world every time you tried to speak to them, and shields breaking the game if you used them to block spit.

Now we have 3600 horses and WORSHIPPING!.


I for one welcome our new equine overlords.

I was stalked by a horse recruit and his band of other horses that I encountered in a town.  They followed me out into the wilderness and just stood and watched as I was attacked and eaten by dingos.

Reminds me of the giant mosquito swarms a few years ago.
