I noticed LordLinguinie used the term, [i]battalion[/i] in defining the military organization Lord Lashton is going to lead on his campaign/raid/attack or whatever you want to call it. What's nice about the word is it allows the organization's strength to remain undefined. A battalion could number anywhere from a few hundred to just over a thousand. I thought I would throw a company-sized element of light cavalry (lancers) for good measure. Nice to have some eyes to look at a distance or to weight an attack; break up an enemy formation.
