But hey, they actualy look around to find new opponents, so we can't complain right ?
o_O? What are you talking about? Those aren't whole units doing what you're saying, but indivual unit AI of one soldier in one unit. The swordsman are obviously charging the Mongols, if you look at the UI you see the Mongol Spearsmen are double-timing, thus it means that both units are charging each other. Not only does it do this in RTW, but if you're charging in full plate, shield and sword waving, I'm sure you'd have a hard time stopping while you have the momentum behind you. Plus the other formation is scattered because they were also running, because in RTW units that ran into formation weren't perfect square right away as they were in Shogun or MTW1. Thus, I see nothing wrong. Infact, the English appear to be in a very neat formation, and you can see them sending in the rest of the first wave to the left.
