Eiji Aonuma Announces a New Weapon Type for upcoming Hyrule Warriors DLC

This was definitely an obvious one as far as ideas for additional weapons for Link go, so I'm glad it's actually happening and isn't just an extra feature, but a full weapon type with its own move set. The only other two characters I could actually imagine fighting while riding a horse would be Zelda and Ganondorf, but it's far more significant for Link to have it.

Hope Epona has some good mobility compared to many other weapons and characters. Obviously this is all simply preparation for the Cucco mode I suggested yesterday, where moving quickly will be crucial.

I had a strange mental image of link welding some Epona corpse

That's sick man.....& surprisingly original!

Great idea, I love it.

I just hope that the rest of the DLC won't focus on Link that much. Give the other characters some new items/costumes too!
