Trivia[]

  • The War Horse is a draft horse, horses typically bred for hard tasks such as pulling heavy equipment and carriages easier. They were primarily used on farms, but also in wars to pull large artillery guns.
  • Despite the War Horse being labelled "Iron Grey", its actual color is blue roan. Incidentally, it uses a similar coat to the Grey Kentucky Saddler.
  • The War Horse can be spawned (even in the Standard Edition of the game) via the cheat code "You are a beast built for war" or "You want something new". The player can save it using a glitch that involves the mission "Angelo Bronte, A Man of Honor".
  • Once stabled, the War Horse cannot be sold. If the player bonds with two horses while the War Horse is out or the horse dies the player will no longer have ownership of the War Horse and they will have to buy the horse again from the stable.
