    They are I hate fighting them online as there a bit too good lol

    Anyway when i said Light Infantry I meant the unit with 80 range not the rifle units :)

    I did use some to good effect online about a week ago. I used 2 light inf and 2 Frei-korps which I left hidden an till my opponent had started shooting at my main line of Line inf and rifles I then attacked his right flank with cav and ran my light inf up to shoot into it wall his units were disrupted and could not fire back. It worked well but he wanted a rematch and as he knew what my army was and could do that time and I messed up he destroyed me

    When you rely on surprise it is hard to give it up and still have a chance.

    The rematch using the same armies was not such a good idea.

    Seldom does an enemy know the exact unit he will face but when he dose he is likely to win...
