. Only the lead stallion of the mare being stolen may block a steal
. The stallion has three days to guess
. The stallion only has one guess

Fighting .

. If the horse you are battling doesn't reply within three days, you automatically win
. Each horse is allowed three attacks, one full escape, and one part-escape
. If there are any problems, come to me
. Keep in mind realistic timing, please
