It's a value in yards, which is set by a regiment's "Open" skill, and is between 40 and 140 yards. Does anyone know what effect it has? The SDK just says "Wheeling Locked (distance / yds)".

I'm guessing that it has to do with the unit’s ability to turn and face a threat, meaning that an experienced unit will turn sooner than an untrained unit.

The only true logic is that, there is no true logic!

That was my guess too, but I hope to find out specifically. In that case, it would only affect non-TC regiments.
