==Ride that horse!==
Horses are great for getting around. They are even better for fighting. That irritating slowdown you get because you are hurting? It doesn't affect you while on horseback. That makes it easier for you to run off and heal up.
The first thing you need for a horse is a place to keep it. A fenced in area with trees or grass works fine. 4 tiles per horse is usually enough.
Next, you will need a rope. Ropes are easy to make, but require [[wemp fibers]]. If you don't have any, you will need to forage/grow some. Then, you need to make a [[rope tool]]. Or, you could go to the nearest market and buy a couple.
Now, you need to go horse hunting. Horses spawn on steppe, so you will usually find some there. They often migrate to forests, though, for the grass. So, keep an eye out when you get close to steppe, and search nearby forests if you don't find any on the steppe.
Try to find a mature or aged horse. Old, venerable, and adolescent can also be ridden and hitched to carts, but are not so good for breeding. Old and venerable because they are getting too old (venerable parents have a chance to give their offspring [[animal husbandry|deformities]]. Adolescent horses because they can't breed yet.
Once you find a horse, activate the rope, right click on it, and select Lead. If you BC (body control) is 21, you can right click on it again and select Ride. Repeat as necessary to use all your ropes (if you are riding, the rope you used to lead your mount is free to lead another animal).
Now you've done it! You've started your own horse farm!
