I like the rules and think they have some great selling points.

Thanks, hopefully someone will give them a try when done. I think I'll have to add some formation options for the cav. simply because cav would be more forced to adapt to the terrain then infantry.
Probebly full line, deep line and column, with column giving movement bonouses on road(for those with bigger tables)
