Ever get frustrated that your mounts will not swim across simple rivers and ponds? Now you can wade them with any mount of <insert size> or greater. (basicallly warhorse classed +) Success is affected by encumberance as well as proficiency in this skill.

It might be intresting, although many rivers and streams are far deeper than they appear and can drop off suddenly at any time, so all in all I don't beleive it would work.

I don't really see where this will be useful because almost every river in the game has some bend or point to cross over it. The only time water really blocks the way would be oceans where this skill would be ineffective. I can only see it being abused that way.

Some rivers stretch a long way, and there is a corner in the edge of the world sealed off, though there's nothing there as far as I know...
But I mean more the water you find not on the overhead map, in cities, etc. those are numerous and freqently annoying if your mount can't swim with you
