    Unless you're on the edge of the map, or you've surrounded them with infantry, how can you not get your cavalry behind them?

    Pin their front with your infantry. Walk your cavalry round. Move them out to the appropriate charging distance. Charge home.
    It began on seven hills - an EB 1.1 Romani AAR with historical house-rules (now ceased)
    Heirs to Lysimachos - an EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR with semi-historical houserules (now ceased)
    Philetairos' Gift - a second EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR

    the first time, i was beign cocky, and simply refused to surround them, i don't know why... so that loss i took like a man.

    the second time, i made the mistake of marching my army into a city, and they pinned me on the road. Korinthos was the city...

    patience is the key - take the time to get some units, pref cavalry, down a side street and around behind them - hey presto, minced KH general. :) it's a longer way round than on open ground, but worth the wait, obv.
    inde consilivm mihi pavca de Avgvsto et extrema tradere, mox Tiberii principatum et cetera, sine ira et stvdio, qvorvm cavsas procvl habeo.
