Hi Scotty, Saying that the French cavalry must caracole is based on older information. Please see Nosworthy, "Anatomy of Victory" for a discussion of French cavalry tactics. Nosworthy's conclusion was that the French used a variety of tactics in a cavalry fight.
Such a pleasure to look at these gorgeous lines of battle...Splendid!
Many thanks. I do love this period of warfare. Even considered doing some 10mm armies to do larger battles
