Bad plot, Klingons behave like they don't know anything about battle

Warning: Spoilers
Apart from the described above fact that this episode is a classic cliché, with good guys and bad one -dimentional guys, I really disliked the bad setting of the final battle. Klingons had teleportation on their side, and they are supposed to be ruthless but well trained tacticians in that face to face field battle. Instead wee see klingons behave like mindless barbarians, charging in a group formation against well placed dispersed hidden opponents with the higher ground.

Its a no brainer. They could lock on their opponents with the transport and disable them. Or at least pinpoint from space their location (no scanners?). Or at least transport themselves to a better location.

In the end, when the trap flames encircled them, they didn't use their transports to escape until all was over.

Bad scenario, written in an afternoon.
