Last battle my opponent pointed out that fast cavarly can shoot to 360 degree, not only the normal 90 degree. Is this indeed possible ? Shooting backwards is indeed something fast cavarly is able to do in real ife.

No Fast Cav can only shoot in their forward 90° arc. maybe in an older edition they could (like Skirimishers) but in this one Fast Cav cant shoot at units not in their forward arc

With their free reforms they can EFFECTIVELY shoot 360 degrees as they can end their movement facing any direction. But once they end their movement, their firing arc is locked to the standard 90 degree forward arc.

It's a non-issue most of the time.

Yeah this used to be like this in former editions with FC and skirmisher units. Now they both have to shoot into forward arc. Its a good thing because they used to be a little ridiculous sometimes.
