Clarification: When an Inspired Leadership Action orders units that are a combination of both cavalry and foot units, only one type of unit, either the cavalry or the foot will usually gain the benefit of the Inspired Leadership Action as follows:
• Inspired Leadership Action—Mounted Charge: Foot units may still be ordered to move and battle normally, while the cavalry units that are ordered must charge if they do anything.
