    Default Cav charge throughs.

    The intention of this post is to fully endorse and expand the problem stated by gamegeek2 in his latest youtubevideo about cav charge throughs. There, we get and example of cav charging through the back of another friendly cav. This type of charge is just a variation of the well know cav charge through own infantry. Why we should spare the penalty to the back of our own cav? As far as I know, they are just bodies too.
    In another sense, there are cav charge throughs when one player is going to hit the back of an already engaged enemy unit with 2 or more cav units. Cav units ussualy tend to cross themselves in the charge movement: which is a charge through in movement between those units. We know this types of charges are powerful enough to insta-rout the engaged enemy unit and by discouraging them we are just making a more fair battle system.

    1.-Stationary or static cav charge through:

    2.- Dynamic or in movement cav charge through:

    What we should do is to forbid those charges through.
