Hi Tomasz, I think for ECW or TYW dragoons the rules expect them to stay as skirmishers whether mounted or dismounted. See the description on p 83 of the main rule book or p114 of the Epic P&S rule book. The information on changing formation (main rule book p28) certainly suggests some units can move from battle line to skirmish and back again. I don’t think there is any historical precedent to say the dragoons couldn’t fight in regular ranks and files, so I would allow personal interpretation in my games.
It is perhaps something to agree with you opponents before the game starts if you think it will be an issue?
