The Swordsmasters will then rout and get run down 99% of the time.
If that’s the kind of game play you want, then fine, but it's the very fact that the TW series doesn’t have that and has it quite realistic in that elite swordsmen charged by units no better than peasant, (or most missile units in melee), don’t get utterly trounced just because they got rear charged, even though they could have beaten a full stack of said unit in general melee.
