Hello everyone,
So my wife was playing the Unicorn starter deck and I had a brilliant thought for her--
Since most of here stuff is cavalry ,can she declare that she is attacking all of my provinces and then assign no infantry? The idea here is that after I assign my infantry wherever I do, she can then assign her cavalry at some undefended province.
Thanks for any help you guys can give us.

Absolutely she should use that tactic!
Any Cavalry unit (a unit where the Personality and all his Followers have the Cavalry keyword) my assign during the Cavalry Maneuvers assignment, even if there aren't any other units there, and is the big advantage of the Unicorn Clan and Cavalry cards in general.
