cavalry wheeling

[Mark G]

That argument is fine for the end guys, but the inside still have to turn largely stationary while staying aligned.  Speed wheeling necessitates a lot if forward creao at the same time or the formation collapses, and that is the danger

[Patrick Waterson]

If you have room, forward creep is not a problem and can easily be accommodated by a trained formation with an experienced leader - anything less really has no place on the battlefield.

If you do not have room and must wheel more or less on the spot, it suggests you recently did something wrong!
