Oh !!!!! You mean a 2E Cav unit WHICH IS IN COLUMN cannot fit on a
flank IF THAT FLANK IS IN A GAP ONLY 80p WIDE.

And here I was thinking that my 15mm troops must be based wrong...

And its really not helping that this issue is now being discussed
under at least three different SUBJECT lines.

The price of freedom is infernal vigilantes

Mr RHEA, of Tennessee, said...he believed it a correct principle that
all the militia should be armed under a Republican government. One
of the objects of such a Government was, that the people should have
arms in their hands; and those who legislate for them should take
every possible means to effect that object. For the want of arms
being in the hands of the people of the nations of Europe, their
liberty was lost. (Dec 1807)
