Leffe7's Scenario Generator lets you choose what formations you have in a battle. The Scenario Editor by NSD will let you do the same thing.

Right now I can't see the thread for Leffe7's SG... but its here somewhere!

Just open OOB file that you need to play in wordpad and delete cav units, save file.

You need to run it as a Mod, so in the folder Jacquinot has just given, create a folder called "No Cav Mod" (without the quotes), and in there put a folder called "OOBs" and in there put your OOB.csv file. Give the OOB file a distinctive name like "No Cav".

EDIT:

Here you go, it only took a few minutes. All players of your MP group must d/l this archive, open it and left-click & drag the folder inside it into your Waterloo/Mods folder.

Then go into the game's Modifications screen and active the "NoCav" mod by checking the red box on the left side. The close the game completely, then go back in so the mod is activated. Check the Mods screen a second time to make sure the red box is checked.

Then choose Multiplayer and sandbox and use the OOB called "OOB_SB_Waterloo_AM_NoCav".

I removed all cavalry units, all their commanders, all their attached artillery and all their ammo wagons.
