The 1e [[Dungeons & Dragons]] [[Cavalier]]-[[Paladin]] earned its particular amount of scorn because it took the Paladin's "crunch-mandated fluff" of [[Lawful Stupid]]ity and not only did it have to do the same thing, it also enforced ''this very behavior'' in the exact same way. Specifically, as a result of the code and the desire for battle, cavaliers cannot be controlled in battle situations. They will charge any enemy in sight, with this order of preference:

# Powerful monsters (dragons, demons, giants) serving enemy leaders. 
# Enemy leaders. 
# Opponent cavaliers of great renown, and enemy flags and standards. 
# Opponent cavalry of noble or elite status. 
# Other opponent cavalry. 
# Opponent elite footmen. 
# Opponent camp and headquarters. 
# Opponent melee troops. 
# Levies or peasants.

So, you have a class that is not only expected to act like this, but which gets game penalties if it ''doesn't''. Not a lot of people approved, obviously.
