Im a bit confused about cavalry, by the rules in the Equipment pack.

it says:

Quote:

When indicated in the scenario’s Briefing Notes, place 4 Cavalry figures in each scenario hex containing an Infantry symbol with a Cavalry badge. A Cavalry unit is treated like Infantry for ordering and Armor for movement and combat. An ordered Cavalry unit: May move up to 3 hexes and battle. May battle any enemy target 2 or fewer hexes away. It rolls 2 dice in Close Assault and 1 die against a target at 2 hexes. May, on a successful Close Assault combat, Take Ground and battle again, using the same rules as the Armor Overrun combat.

So this means, that it gets a -2 dice against a forest or town?
Does this also means you have to throw grenades to kill cavalry (it says it has to be treated like armor in combat)?

The rules in the EP are updated rules (acording to the symbol next to it) so what is exactly changed? or only if the scenario says "polish cavalry"

We played the EP yesterday and we played the cavalry as an infantery unit with special movement abilities, but nog the -2 dice restrictions against forest (because this makes cavalry useless)


The summary card is not very helpfull in this case in my opinion....


Hopefully you understand my question.. its still early here in Holland
