Trampling a prone opponent on horseback

Currently the game does not allow us to trample an opponent who is already down. Perhaps a second look at this would lead us to think that prone opponents are the most trampleable of them all?

I imagine this is a balancing issue. How fair would it be for you to trample another PC, and then be able to keep trampling them while they're down? It would make a continuous roundtime loop. Besides.. trampling can be highly damaging and deadly even as it is now.

Well you can trample someone if they get back up, unless you fail.

So we could have it the same chance of failing, ie they could roll out of the way. There would just be no initial part where the horse bashes them down.
