Dragoons were principally deployed on the extreme flank of an army. They would snipe at passing
troops using flintlock muskets. Since cavalry was usually deployed on the flank, they would
normally fire at the opposing cavalry as it charged past.

Dragoons were not always used in battles, even major ones, but were incorporated into the New Model Army as a regiment 1,000 strong.
