Cavalry in the Cascadian scheme of things servers three main purposes:
first is the traditional cavalry role. Secondly, it will serve as a
rapid-deployment main force. Third, it serves as the main garrison
force on smaller colonies. In the last two roles, your comment is duly
noted and will be addressed.

Good point. I like your suggestion, and will probably field some
version of it.
>No organic mortars? I think that's a mistake.
I was actually considfering an organic lance of even heavier artillery,
but thought it might be overkill. Duly noted.
Maybe a whole Pioneer troop?
As for the VTOL's, that's where I'm most open to suggestions. The high
number of GMS is designed to flood ZADS.
