Cavalry

[typhoon]

O.K played lots of Panzer Campaigns and ACW titles but the Napoleonic's is new to me. Stuck a bit on Cavalry. In PZ or ACW you mainly disrupt before assaulting is this the same before charging with the Cavalry or can it be done against undisrupted units with a good chance of success if they not in a square?. The formations Cavalry make this really different as for Skirmishers please don't get me started I have no idea of the best use to be made of them I figure mainly to slow a infantry attack but maybe there's more to it than that.
