Getting equipment for a horse is not a problem; no one prevents you from changing gear during battles (except that it's a hassle for whoever is counting them), especially when you have a lord at hand whom you only need to ask (unless you have Carnea — she'll first hit you with that horse). But regarding the battles themselves, it's better to avoid situations where actions are added post-factum based on already calculated info. It's cool that the spirit works, by the way. It wasn't introduced in vain.
In a melee, solo bonuses will work if teams disband or when a character remains alone. Regarding the fight between Zedil and Orvald, well... If you're not too lazy to count, Yashchur, you can have them fight again. The judge was unsatisfied with the duel and demanded a rematch.
/ Can a mount act separately from its rider? For example, just stand on an adjacent tile and attack? /
I think we already agreed not to dismount them during the tournament. But in general, FOR THE FUTURE — you can dismount or mount by spending a turn, and then control them separately.
Revan, please add a sketchbook and pencils to the inventory
