First World War Campaigns - Cavalry Charges

[BigDuke66]

Well I understand it the way that forcing infantry to assault in travel mod is there to simulated the problems when trying to cross a bridge where the other side is occupied by the enemy who surely has something against the infantry crossing into their territory.
I doubt it's only to simulated their march from a road over the bridge to the other side, similar to a unit being forced to be in travel mod to use a road through terrain were the unit could not deploy.

And just like that I would expect the cavalry to have the same problem, instead of attacking in a brought formation it is forced to charge over a bridge that is rather narrow and slows it down, so they have the same problem just like infantry to cross the bridge under the weapons of the enemy and to form up for an attack on the other side.


If the cavalry would have for what ever reason the advantage to simply march over and form up on the other side I would also expect that the infantry could do the same and so there is no need for them to assault in travel mod.
Either both have the problem of crossing a bridge with the enemy holding against this or none of them have a problem at all.

It simply makes no sense to have assault power of the infantry quartered while that of cavalry is 4 times of their standard value.
Especially when it can be assumed that infantry could always used rafts or what ever to support their bridge crossing assault while cavalry is simply forced to use the bridge only.
