I'm not talking about the defences that your infantry can build when you're dug in during the deployment phase, but the line of stakes that your light infantry can build during a battle.
I've been using Green Jackets a lot and it seems pretty logical that a defensive line of stakes would be pretty good. However, they're have never stopped a cavalry charge! The enemy AI (on Hard) sometimes charges it's cav at my line of light infantry and simply goes straight through the line of stakes and smashes into my infantry. They seem to have no affect whatsoever! Even my own cav is unaffected if they run through the light infantry's stakes (in either direction).
Has anyone ever seen them cause carnage like they should, or are they pretty useless?
