I am trying to understand how caballarii scara being dismounted should be claissified as nothing is specified

Following pg 129 they should dismout loose order, exceptionnal, combat shy . ( if I understand it well they have no SP, no DC when on foot  )

But in the list AV dismounted caballarii are close, SP, ME and Shieldwall

So are we missing a description of the dismounted caballarii scara or are they really not up to it when dismounted

Help, please help how to classify those Cabalarii Scara when they dismount ?

There is an omission in the list.  It should read (as per Carolingian) -  Note: Cavalry dismount as Formed Close, Short Spear, Shieldwall of the same quality.

Will correct when I have a chance.
