        It's in the description of Cavalry, on the back cover of the
Armies book, among other places. It says "Double move, triple when
charging in assault phase. So when charging, they appear to triple
movement.
        (There's also the rules lawyer interpretation. You double
movement during assault charges, and then the cavalry says to triple
that, but I'll pack up and leave if anyone tries to move their 'hawks
90cm during the assault phase.)
        So it's either 45cm or 90cm, not 60cm.
