Hi,
I am preparing the Battle of Halmstadt at 1:1 ratio. Now I am dealing with the cavalry and I have a doubt. How many rows had a cavalry squadron (Danish and Swedish) at the epoch (1676)?. I saw some pictures of the epoch and it seems to me they were on 3 rows? Any help? thanks for your help |

Strangely, I fully comprehended what the OP is talking about, even though he doesn't mention 'ranks'. |

Sorry. YEs I wanted to say ranks/rows. 2 or 3? |

an idea of what I meant top 3 ranks/rows – bottom 2 ranks/rows

Tons of good information in the pdf:s here but none on cavalry formations sadly. Perhaps in one of the sources listed in the Playbook? link |
