Think we might mean canter. Cantor is something a bit different.

Reading the rules on the subject: Scouting Cavalry and Impact Cavalry (defined Page 11)may continue a charge after successfully winning a Fisticuffs. 2. Dragoons (as defined on page 11), and irregular cavalry are halted and or reduced to a walk after a successful Fisticuffs, mounted or dismounted. Scouting and Heavy Cavalry at the Cantor or Charge may continue their movement at the same speed IF the result of their Fisticuffs is to win by 4 or more in the FIRST ROUND. (See page 55 for result of losing by 4 or more) This movement is equal to the movement left over from their charge into Fisticuffs.If no movement is left the cavalry remain in position moving at the speed they had at the beginning of the Fisticuffs. If Fisticuffs last more than one round the charging cavalry end their advance. Cavalry that can continue their charge may attempt to Pull Up (page 39). Subtract 1 to the die roll if the cavalry is "aggressive "(page 84), and if the attack is made under a "Tally Ho" card(page 85). Add 1 to the die roll if the cavalry is In Hand (page 84) and if the Cavalry is "stubborn" (page 84). The above rule may also be applied to infantry attack columns. In this case an attempt to "Pull up" is decreased by one if the column is under a "Pas de Charge" action. Don't expect a breakthrough to occur often. The defenders must have at least more shock than figures for the assault to have any chance to pursue. HOUSE RULES for SHARP PRACTICE for breakthroughs by cavalry and by infantry columns in Fisticuffs. Mike Reese |
