Fighting on high ground gives you a pretty decent morale bonus, as well as better accuracy. As far as I can tell, friendly infantry will not hit each other when placed behind each other (I could be wrong in this regard).

It's funny, I generally play Empire/Napoleon with armies mainly comprised of infantry and artillery , with cavalry used only to scout out positions and harass the enemy.

The infantry can fire over each other using terrain differences when placed behind each other. But if you fire into melee, or if your units are just too near the enemy, you'll still massacre everybody.

I like to use either infantry heavy armies for sieges or cavalry heavy armies for raiding and small field fights. I feel that mixing the two just slows everyone down.
