Of course, if you have enough troops, you encircle the defenders (here Winterfell) and have separate troops to keep the mobile army away from your besiegers.
There were ALOT of Dothraki, but my sense is that the army of the dead vastly outnumbered them. VASTLY. And if that's the case, you aren't enveloping much of anything unless ALL the dead just pile up 20 deep or whatever against the castle walls. The individual wights were stupid, but they were clearly controlled, on an individual level at need, by the NK. They therefore aren't going to do that.
But still, hit and run, flanking -- ANYTHING -- is better than what they actually did.
And the Dothraki damn well should've known that.

The Dothraki's whole experience in battle is overwhelming the enemy and riding right at them. You would expect them to be different in this battle? That's like watching the Unsullied and then wondering why they didn't split up and fight one on one with the undead army.
