Still trying to get a complete analysis, but right now it also feels like the sweep attack we're granted at PA4 is inferior to the lunge attack we get at PA3. Both cause a KD, but lunge has 4x the range (20m vs 5m), and seems no less effective at causing a KD than the sweep.
I think the sweep is an AoE attack. The tool-tip text for it says something like 'Knocks down any opponent in melee range' which I took to mean 'Knocks down *all* opponents in melee range'. Could be wrong....

Talking of sweep/lunge brings me to another problem, altough doubtfull it's only pikeman that suffers it, but I'll post it here 'cos it was with my pikeman char I noticed it first...
Although sweep/lunge often KDs stuff nicely, they don't stay down for long. Often they get half way through their 'fall over' animation and then..*ding*..they're upright and back into the fight. Makes the move seem a bit pointless. Is this just me? Lag? Dunno, thought I'd mention it anyway.
