yea the best way 2 speed up is 2 go from the order screen 2 assign 2 equipment 2 production, by a harnes but make sur its for a horse and then wen u select the place u wana invade go 2 preperation before goin 2 start pik item and take the first spot. pik the harness. note that after this battle u wont get it bak... Right Stick- Move X- Attack Y- Complex Attack B- Musou Attack A- Get on/off horse(dont wory u wont lose it) Everything else is basicaly the same. jus doge if sum1 jumps neer u cuz theyl try nokin u off. jump off by urself at that point. im sure u guys no everythin else bout a horse, like the fact that most ataks stink from the top of a horse. Keepin these stuf in mind, hav fun over all!!!!!!!! Mounting the horse- stand next 2 the saddle there shood be a wite circle around it press A ur on. iff ur not, adjust urself and keep jumpin until u get on. however, most ppl dont hav that problem and nor shood u. keep in mind that its not certain that u wil be able 2 make a sadl, its just that sumtimes u can!
