The AI in M&B: Warband is flawless

So imagine being a knight in a prestigeous order; your trainers were the best in the known world and your armor the finest money can buy. Some day your grandmaster asks you and a dozen or so of your mates to hunt down some random merchant-warlord who he really hates for some unknown reason. So you ready up and start hunting the guy. He has a very funny face, a big nose and he calls himself 'Benjamin von Schekelberg'. You get lucky, as he has just fought in several very bloody battles with the muzzies. Almost everyone in his army, including him and his only doctor, has been severely injured. The guy can barely ride a horse now and his army is in ruins. The only people still able to fight are some farmers and peasant women with room tempature iq, everyone else is either dead or severely injured. His allies aren't willing to help him fight you. So you catch the guy and you ride to battle with your glorious horses and shining armor. The guy does the same, alone, for some reason. You think it's your lucky day, the guy is basically committing suicide. Then he starts to ride in circles around you over, and over, and over, and over again. No matter what you try to do, you just can't catch him. Meanwhile his peasant army 50 feet away is throwing rocks and shooting with crappy crossbows until your horses and then you yourselves start dying. The guy isn't even doing literally anything but riding in circles. Eventually you are the last one alive, but you get captured and sold into slavery in the next town. Imagine what you would feel like. You were trained your whole life to be a warrior. You have the best armor and weaponary possible. You belong to one of the most feared and respected knightly orders out there, only to be be beaten by a half-dead exiled merchant riding in circles and his unruly peasant band. This game has no bugs or issues, only features.
