RE: Mixed order in HPS NC
"L'ordre mixte looks nice in diagrams but is tricky to use in the game. It sometimes seems that routing units seek out friendly troops in different formation so they can disorder them."
Hehe - my experiences exactly!
As I recall, when a line unit routs it routs as a column. So in the Ordre' Mixte' if you keep your lines in the centre for firepower, and protect their flanks with column, any routing line formations will not disorder anyone. Those problems usually occur when columns and cav rout into line formations. jonny :whis:
