Light Cavalry

[Moros]

yes but will they then still be fearing the cavalry when those phalanx infantry fights with his swords?

[Danest]

I think it would take a special kind of soldier to not question or disobey or panic under orders to charge one's horse into a phalanx. Though I don't really know how effective the "scare" attributes are... it'd be nice if a cowardly horseman wouldturn away even before he hit the phalanx, heh.

The simplest thing to do is just lower the light cavalry's charge bonus to close to nothing. If you give heavy infantry the scare cavalry ability then cavalry would be scared of attacking from the flanks or rear as well. You must remember that these horses (especially for the heavy cavalry) were specially trained warhorses, not just your run-of-the-mill horse from the fields.
