The same goes for Retinue Longbows or any other unit with this kind of bug.
1) is it simply a graphical bug , or are armor values of these units actually bugged?

2) As some have said about protecting against the HRE- This is entirely what I will be doing with a defensive border established to the north of my home cities...

I will place a couple of half stacks in ambush position, get some defences up and then begin focusing my efforts towards valuable lands south and east ...as I can't imagine I'll have much interest in Germanic regions.
