Well, cav charges still suffer from the Aura of Death sometimes - instead of jamming their long sticks in the chests of the guys in the first rank and stopping, they just... keep on charging, running in place and killing every infantryman their model touches. Happens a lot when my spearmen try to intercept charging knights by charging into them : both units just charge in place, and the spears die in droves, going from 75 men to 30 in seconds.

Which is a bit problematic because since Xbows can't skirmish worth a bean on account of them insisting on finishing their hour-long shooting animation before running away from threats, the only way to protect them is by charging spears through them... And since they're Xbows, you can't deploy them behind the spears either :/
