Kill 25 enemies with the Lance as Cavalry

How to unlock the Charged into Battle achievement in Battlefield 1 - Definitive Guide

This can be achieved on any map that let's you spawn as a Cavalry (Horse icon).

Before you spawn in as Cavalry make sure you press either Left or Right Trigger to change your Cavalry equipment and change your secondary weapon (melee) from Sword to Lance.

Kill 25 people and achievement will pop, horse trample kills do not count toward this.

EDIT: I found out that by approaching slightly on the left side of your targets, Lance can nicely line up a kill if you time it correctly.

Charge also works but is a bit harder I think, because you don't have as quick aim turn speed as you do normally and some high level pro players can just quickly evade your charge attack.

Charge is by far the easiest method of getting this achievement. Especially if you play on the wide open maps that were shipped with the games, just find unfortunate souls out in the open and 25 kills will be no problem.

This was quite frustrating to get as the horse can be terrible to control, especially if you miss a target. Your lance attack also differs depending on your speed. You flail it around when moving slow and thrust it straight ahead when moving fast (clicking left stick once while moving). The thrust attack as well as the LT charge attack are your best bet.

If you miss just keep moving and put some distance between you and your target before turning around and trying again, or picking another target. Don't stop and turn on the spot to try again. The horse is slow at turning and you'll be killed quickly. Enemies can also like on the ground and your lance won't be able to hit them. Hope this helps.

For some reason when I hover over the horse there's only the option to deploy, no option to customise like tanks etc. Any ideas?

Couldn't get a single kill swinging the damn thing. Charge worked quite well. Lots of fun too.

Also always move in an S pattern when you aren't charging to make it harder for people to shoot you.

I got this achievement easily. Equip yourself as described in this solution. Have a second account or another player stand to the left of your horse. Swing the lance so that you hit the enemy. If you get a kill, it counts even though you are not charging the enemy. No need for fancy equestrian acrobatics.

Here's some tips :

-don't turn so sharply
-run on a smooth S pattern
-sprint is a toggle, don't hold it down
-use charge when you see an enemy
-after the kill, or if you miss, run away then make a large turn and come back in, DON'T stop and try to fight
-repeat

Might add it's hard to get kills with lance since you often acccodentally road kill and those don't count. Best way I found was to use the charge function with holding cn_LT then while charging you have to HOLD cn_RT and aim the cursor at the enemy you are trying to kill. Doing so will give you a sweet impale animation. But if you don't HOLD cn_RT the lance just seems to push the enemy out of the way.

not sure why, but every single other player on a horse seems to have the greatest indestructible stallion war horse ever,
and yet I some how get on Bambi and get killed before getting near anyone.

This achievement is some sick sadistic joke to get legitimately. The time between lance swings is so unforgiving and the turning radius if the horse is actually the curvature of the Earth. THEN, on top of all that your stupid horse just STOPS ALL THE GODDAMN TIME FOR NO REASON. Small bump in terrain? Horse stops and you die. Turn too sharply? Horse stops and you die. Every. Time. Whoever at Dice thought that it would be fun to get 25 kills with the lance alone for this achievement needs to have their brain surgically removed for testing because how could anyone ever under any circumstances think that this would be a good idea. I'm at 21 kills right now and I'm seriously contemplating jumping off a bridge. Screw this absolutely awful achievement. I'd rather put a toothpick under my toenail and kick a wall than do this crap again. Sorry, I just needed somewhere to vent. That is all. Carry on.

The cavalry lance is a new melee weapon you can use while on horseback. When first starting the new DLC, the sword will still be selected by default. To change this, select the horse on the respawn screen (when available), press until you reach the Sword, then press to select the Lance and press to confirm. Once you're in-game, look for enemy infantry and kill them using your new weapon. You can either choose to charge them using , which is similar to a Bayonet charge while on foot or you can simply stab with your Lance by using .

If done properly, the kill information will mention the Cavalry Lance:

In order to earn this achievement you must complete twenty five kills with the new Calvary Lance, The Calvary Lance can only be used while on horseback and is a large melee weapon that you can only use to kill enemy foot soldiers. You can only select this weapon by using the cursor and hovering over the Calvary in the spawn menu of a multiplayer match and then moving over to your selected melee weapon by pressing . Once on the melee weapon section, use or in order to select the Lance.

Once you have the Lance selected, proceed to use the Calvary as often as possible in order to chip away at the twenty five kills needed for this achievement. The hit detecting on the Lance is notoriously finicky and can be somewhat frustrating to time properly. On horseback, you can change from your primary rifle to the Lance by pressing . Once selected you can use to swing the Lance in close proximity to an enemy soldier and is usually a one hit kill. If an enemy soldier is running with his back turned or is unaware of your presence you can also use sprint in order to charge with the Lance in a sort of jousting style gallop that will impale enemies and is also a one hit kill.

Please note that you do not need to complete these kills on the new ‘In the Name of the Tsar’ maps. The Lance is available on any map that has Calvary.

Kills made with a regular spear strike also count. , and from “overclocking” (hold L2). The main thing is not the horse itself.

Statistics can be viewed in the "main menu->soldier section->weapons". As soon as the number of kills on a spear reaches 25, a trophy will pop up.

Just in case, to choose a spear when reviving you need:
a) select a spawn point where there is a horse;
b) press several times or , scrolling to the saber;
c) use up/down arrows to select a spear

This trophy is easy to get if you get to one of the daily events related to horses. At this time, they spawn almost instantly.

I recommend the map "Lupkowski Pass" in the "capture" mode. There is a horse at almost every point here.
