There seems to be a bug with infantry firing on charging cavalry:
This seems to occur if at least one unit of infantry in line is charged by multiple units of cavalry. Defensive fire works normally, but the second fire prior to the charge resolution, which should hit both units of cavalry, stacks on one or the other, seemingly at random, i.e. not always on the one you target first or second.
If two units in line are charged by three units of cavalry, there's a good chance one unit of cavalry will receive all the pre-charge fire from all three units, though this doesn't always seem to happen.
Squares adjacent to units in line firing on charging cavalry also might be affected.
I'll see about providing a savegame, currently the only one I have is from a modified Kesselsdorf (no skirmish or fire-capable light cavalry, much too effective against infantry and other cavalry without charging, even with just 5% fire effectiveness)...
Edit: Removed rant about what I perceive to be a lack of cavalry effectiveness vs low-morale/high disruption infantry units - such as a bunch of freshly rallied morale 10 battalions in column all forming square when charged and seeing off the attackers.
