Description[]
Gen 2[]
"The Lipizzaner is an elegant horse with a natural ability to perform extremely difficult maneuvers. It is popular with certain schools and for dressage. The famous Spanish Riding School in Vienna uses nothing but Lipizzaner horses. "
Gen 3[]
"Commonly referred to as the white stars of Vienna’s Spanish Riding School, the beautiful Lipizzaners are powerhouses! These horses were originally bred in 1580 to be cavalry mounts at a stud farm in Lipizza, a town in what is now Slovenia. Today, their combination of intelligence, athleticism, and superb conformation allow them to pull off some of classical dressage’s most difficult movements, such as the famous levade and capriole. As Baroque horses, they have wide chests, muscular shoulders, and powerful hindquarters.
The Von Blyssens fell in love with the breed on a trip to Vienna and brought the first Lipizzaners to Jorvik. Sensitive, yet with brains and brawn in equal measure, Lipizzaners make great horses for ambitious and dedicated riders who can nurture their talent."
Unique Features[]
The Levade Gen 2[]
Note: The horse must reach level 7 to perform this move.
The Generation 2 Lipizzaners have a special feature that is unique to their breed on Star Stable Online. They can Levade, a controlled rear-like action that is based on one of the traditional "Airs Above the Ground" movements taught in real Lipizzaner riding academies all over the world. The animation can be activated by pressing the spacebar, but only when standing still, otherwise the horse will jump instead of Levade.
The Levade Gen 3[]
While all of the horses in Star Stable will rear if the payer presses the "X" button when at a walk, trot, or while backing up, the Generation 3 Lipizzaner has a special rear called the "Levade." This is a controlled rear-like action that is based on one of the traditional "Airs Above the Ground" movements taught in real Lipizzaner riding academies all over the world. When the horse is at walk, trot, or is backing up, and player goes for a hard stop, the horse will perform the "Levade."
The Passage[]
Note: The horse must reach level 7 to perform this gait.
While most breeds in SSO only have five gaits, the Generation 3 Lipizzaner has six. This special gait is called the "Passage," a movement used in upper-level dressage. To make your horse do this gait, the horse must be walking. The player then must hold down the Shift key and then simultaneously hit either the up arrow or the 'w' key. The Gen 3 Lipizzaner will then begin to perform the special gait. During this gait, the horse cannot move to a faster gait or jump. To stop the Passage, simply slow your horse down like you would with any other.
The Capriole[]
Note: The horse must reach level 7 to perform this move.
The Generation 3 Lipizzaner can perform a special move called the Capriole, a controlled jump-in-place that is based on one of the traditional "Airs Above the Ground" movements taught in real Lipizzaner riding academies all over the world. The animation can be activated by pressing the spacebar, but only when standing still, otherwise the horse will jump instead of performing the move.
