Anyone who has played as Britain: Do the infantry yell the traditional "huzzahs" before charging?

One of my generals, just sitting in Ireland, got an ancillary:

"Barber" which gave him a 5% chance of dying at the end of the turn

The quote said something about the barber's second passion being pies or something. Kind of an amusing reference.

Obviously, Mr Todd was a Wiganer (North West of England Joke)

In my campaign as GB almost every general i had had the barber follower. I'm not exaggerating here... every single general i had had a barber in his retinue.

I haven't played with the british all that much, but I do recall them yelling "Into the breach men!" when infantry is ordered to charge the enemy

One of my Gentlemen got a follower who makes useless things, I can't recall the name, but the quote is something along the lines of 'Behold my new trouser mice!'

Made me chuckle.

1747
Faction: Austria
Place: New Austria, Florida, Fort Augistine

My general and 400 infantry face off against roughly 1000 Cheroke.(I can't spell)

I plan the battle, they out number me with lots of calvary. I have a plan. Desperate but brilliant. I stack all my men inside the Command HQ and various town buildings. A vicious urban street battle.

They charge, things are going well...

Then I realize....wait....didn't I have a general?

He wasn't in a garrison was he?

I see his white flag in the distance as he runs just before the Cheroke cut him down
