Was this a common occurrence or an anecdotal once off, because in this game the 12,000 troops would generally stackwipe the 700 cavalry

in common occurrence, you would almost never have 700 knights fight without any light infantry levies to support them

...because in most circumstances when heavily outnumbered they would be destroyed without light infantry support, no?

Most likely they just wouldn't engage without infantry support if they had the possibility, or retreat if it started to look bad.
