It probably isnt as simple as an animation problem. But we will know soon, they should have the update list out shortly.
Interesting discrepancy. I just ran billmen vs scottish mailed knights 5 times, the 3 times my guys didn't route on impact, I watched the melee very closely. I never once saw the billmen try to swing at the cav. I saw plenty of parry type animations, but never once did they attempt to swing as far as I could tell.
