FP vs. FL in melee
It appears to me that with regard to melee between FP and FL units, being FP affords no benefit, with the exception of the large depth bonus for FP armed with pike or long spear. Do I have that correct?

Re: FP vs. FL in melee
FP has a bonus in cohesion tests:
+1 if shot at (except if shooter is artillery)
-1 to opponent if meleeing against CP, CM, CL
Personally I prefer a bit more difference in combat between FP and FL so I use a +1 cohesion bonus for FP against ANY opponent.

Thanks Jorneto, regarding your modification, that's what I was thinking too.

Re: FP vs. FL in melee
We've been using it already with Impetus 1 and it has proved very satisfactory.
Particularly when matching a FP line versus a FL line. The latter tends to erode a bit faster which feels right.
