I would like to garher opinions about using cavalry.
1. How deep should be the cavalry formation? Or perhaps the depth doesn't matter as cavalry units don't get any rank/formation bonuses?
2. Do you let your cavalry stay in the melee after the initial charge or do you pull it off and charge again? I seldom do the latter as I find most cavalry units (especially knights) difficult to extract and (more important) it takes a lot of time and attention thus leaving other parts of the battle unattended. And if you have several cav units? Should you withdraw them one by one and send them to charge in the like manner or do you wait for them all to be withdrawn and then make a joint charge?
