Do you have rules for mounted combat?

[Devronq]

I hear mounted combat has very bad rules with lots of loopholes and unanswered questions, has anyone homebrewed some better rules for mounted combat?

If you don't mind following a link, I wrote up a set of riding rules on the wiki a while back that might cover your concerns (link (http://www.dnd-wiki.org/wiki/Revised_Riding_Rules_%283.5e_Variant_Rule%29)). It doesn't deal with all of the details associated with mounted combat, but it does make riding a high CR combat mount more action intensive (though for games with skill items, you may want to replace the CR part of the DC with a normal HD call). Not sure if it covers what you're worried about, but it might be worth a look.
