And cav most oft charged in line formation...

Thanks for mentioning this....I didn't want to get involved in this...but that is one of the major historical issues with HPS....
attack column has nothing to do with marching column in realitiy...
and cavalry DID charge in line...when it charged in column...only to wheel right or left and then present the line to the enemy (Kellermann at Marengo i.e.)..., due to reasons of frontage OR because they wanted to focus the entire regiment/squadron to focus on one point...
