Assassinate vs mounted persons

[Raider]

Someone sneaks up behind you and snaps your neck with a quick twist of his hands.
You are sent tumbling from a warhorse.
 A warhorse stops following you.
You have died and turned into an invincible ghost for a few minutes.


They cant reach my neck to strangle when i am mounted or enlarged(draconian/mino), but they can reach it to assassinate.

[Dudley]

Good point, I think i was mouned when Rastama assassinated me. I wish I had noticed that while I was busy throwing a temper tantrum.

[Kiri-Jolith]

Well, it is considered ok for assassins. When strangling you need to place a slip-knot over their neck. When assassinating - you do not.
