Kingdoms of Camelot - What are Knights
Kingdoms of Camelot is a fabulous free online game played within Facebook. One of the least known aspects of the game is the appropriate and powerful Knight. Knights can add a tremendous value to you in building faster, attacking more powerfully, researching more quickly and producing more resources.
Knights can be appointed in the Knight's Hall. You can pick any of your friends to serve as a Knight.
A Knight will serve in one of the following roles:
- Foreman
- Marshal

- Steward
- Unassigned
The following picture shows how to assign the roles and skills of your Knight:
My Knight Tab
The name of your Knight and their picture is shown to the left. Your Knight will earn skill points as time progresses, so always keep an eye out for "Unassigned Skill Points." If there are any, assign them ASAP.
Click on "Increase XP" to bring up the screen shown to your right. There are three items available to use.
- Train with Kay - Increase Knight's experience by 1,000 or 8% of current level cap
- Train with Galahad - Increase Knight's experience by 10,000 or 30% of current level cap
- Train with Arthur - Increase Knight's experience by 100,000 or 100% of current level cap
Make sure you use these items! The higher your Knight's skill, the better he will perform in their assigned role.
Training your Knight will increase skill, which, in turn, will increase his contribution to your game.
