Granted I'm replying nearly 2 months after the question , but someone might arrive here from a search so : Not all F&S Lances are actually modelled as lances . That is to say a number of weapons called "Lance" in that game cannot be used in couched lance style {this isn't as weird as it sounds as lance is actually just another word for spear and can refer to infantry weapons , not just cavalry} . First follow Windyplains' advice then get to a death merchant with a handy bandit/enemy group nearby , save game , then buy and test in battle some lances and take notes {on paper} of which actually allow lance couching . I do remember that the Winged Hussar Lances {requires Strength 12} all work couched .

I created an account but wasn't recieving the verification e-mail . On a hunch I logged into this forum {worked} and checked my account settings and noticed I had forgotten to put the .au {country code - The Continent of Death in this case , also answers to Fourecks} at the end of my e-maid address {I'd copy-pasted it from My Yahoo account to avoid making a typo :/} . I entered a "new" e-mail address in account settings and clicked resend verification and recieved the verification immediately and here We are . The moral of this story is , check that you have not made a typo or error of omission in your details if you're having issues .
