Some npcs appear to stand up and attack in the same turn they are bashed. Effectively this makes bashe useless as they do not lose their attack nor is the player getting the benefit of striking a prone target. I am not sure if this is a design feature for some NPCs or not. I have included a snipped below of a hyena continually standing up and attacking during the same round it was bashed.

Edit: Wanted to add that when an NPC that can bash does this, he will still execute a bash if he was attempting to do so to behind win. I think this is problematic because when a player "stands" up, it interrupts the bash they were executing unless it was done through being damaged.
