Bretonnia Knights Errant
What does their Anti-Infantry do?
They do not receive any bonus to damage vs infantry so what is their advantage?
In what situation they would act better than for example Knights of the Realm?

Well, pretty much. If you wanted to grab a whole army of horses, Knights Errant could very well be your 'infantry line' that charges into the front. They're as expendable as Bretonian knights can be.

Well, their 'Anti-Infantry' tool-tip is very vague, and it only means that their charge attacks from their high charge bonus helps them more vs. infantry than cavalry.
Their advantage is their cheaper price than KotR. KotR has an actually Anti-Large bonus which makes them far better suited for anti-large duties, but are also great at charging into infantry. That wastes the their Anti-large capabilites, but KotR are generally better than Knights Errant in almost every way besides price.

KE are roughly as good as KotR vs infantry and far worse against other units. Overally KE are worse KotR so use them only when you dont expect them to fight targets other than infantry or when you lack resources to get KotR. Also 3 KE are nearly always better than 2 KotR unless you lack free slots.
