Break your cavalry up in a few groups spread around with "attack rearmost" while not perfect, will help mitigate that.

Plus, having too many lances to all connect immediately isn't the worst problem to have.

Thanks baalz. I have often noticed the spread when you tell flying units to attack rear. But I never considered mass flight as a mechanism to maximize lance damage. ++
