I was playing warband when i decided to see what my party could do if i was not fighting.
1st of all, when you order your infantry to charge, they run straight forward and they choose a target somewhere in the enemy line. They ignore enemy close to them even if they get hit.
They do not use weapon range advantage. When they have a spear, they go as close to the enemy as they can and get kill really fast because the spear isnt great in close range.
Cavalry charge is really awful. They charge at the enemy but they seem to hate the same guy. So instead of having the cavalry charging the enemy line, they get all stuck so they get kill 1 by 1...
Also, when they get dismounted they keep their lance, so any enemy can kill them with any weapon because lance suck on foot. So you loose knight versus lower tier troop...
Archer ... they will fire at enemy even if their is 30 ally and only 1 enemy. So you loose 1-10 guy because of Friendly fire. They often try to shoot while there is melee hitting them.
The AI is really stupid. I know you can order them to do things, but you cannot watch them all. There is some serious issue that should be fixed. For example, cavalry should not all charge the same guy by default. Archer should go faster in melee.
Am I only to think that AI is really bad ?
