Perhaps I'm not such a horrible sword-fighter after all!
I've long suspected attack direction switches in certain situations, and now have figured out some of them.
I've got attack direction set to mouse movement. In most battles it works. If I go to streets directly upon entering a town it works. However, as soon as I do something else in town, my R and L switch, even if I return to streets where it was working to start with. Moreover, in tournaments the U and D also switch, making a swung weapon work exactly opposite the way it was set.
The problem seems to have been fixed in Warband single-player.
