Cavalry Charges and rule suggestion

[Cyrano]

My own $.02 having played these games for years is that cavalry is already at a pretty significant disadvantage over infantry. Unless you're charging disrupted troops -- when you should pound them flat -- you've got to kill a lot of foot to make up for the cost of horse casualties. And that's in the melee itself, not to mention the casualties you'll take riding in for the kill if you're not coming from the flanks or rear.

Most miniatures games make cavalry far too powerful -- particularly in light of the analyses you cite. I think HPS does a pretty good job of it.

Now, if we could only get DIVISIONAL MORALE, that'd be something.

Best,
