I’m old, my memory is occasionally unreliable.

And it looks like Rich has already answered this one in the FAQ, they are Heisenberg’s Cavalry, simultaneously moving at charge
speed and stationary after combat.

Are you thinking of this?

On the scale of a SP table a horse could easily gallop from one end to the other and back again. Isn't there a Peninsular war example of French cavalry charging through one infantry battalion,
into another, breaking that and into a third??
I would be inclined to allow a charging cavalry unit that wins by four or more to continue to the full length of it's move, fighting subsequent bouts of fisticuffs provided it won by four or
more. If you wanted to represent loss of control you should have to play command cards to make it halt before that.? Presumably it will be picking up shock and casualties in each 'bout' - so I suppose the real question is - do they count as being at the gallop
for the purposes of their next activation? You could adapt the 'pulling up' rule at the bottom of p39.?
I suspect this is one for Rich to answer.
