Summary
 
Interesting game.. nice win. I didn't have much left on the table by the end of the game, but it was more than my opponent.
 
Ok, Knights can’t get caught on the back foot and you have to be aggressive.. other wise they have a very had time..After this game I would be sticking to 4+ units in a formation…

Greg
