Ok. However, you may want to consider offsetting the lower morale by raising the Hit Points of all general units to increase their survivability. FYI, all general-only cavalry units in the export_descr_unit.txt file have two hit points, not one. Or you could take Scorpion's suggestion and increase the Attack & Defense ratings.
