Black Knight: Sword of Rage pinball rules and strategy
The Strategy
Black Knight: Sword of Rage builds Battles at center shots and Triple Knights Challenge at Light Lock and Shield saucer. Hit a center shot once (then one more per Battle played), shoot center ramp, then saucer to start. Hit Light Lock before each saucer lock; take the third during Battle, then collect POWER at center target when lit.
The goal
Use the center ramp and Shield saucer for a Battle, Light Lock and the saucer for multiball, or complete W-A-R for a faster route.
How to start a mode
Hit any of the three center shots (the flail, center target, or Shield) until the center ramp lights. Shoot the ramp to raise the Shield, then shoot the saucer behind it to start the Battle.
Recommended mode: The displayed Battle
Choose the Battle first so it can run with Triple Knights after the third lock.
How to play it
Shoot the colored arrows shown for the active Battle; each Battle uses a different sequence. After it starts, hit Light Lock and shoot the Shield saucer for the third lock.
Start Triple Knights Challenge
Hit the Light Lock target beside the Shield, then shoot the Shield saucer to lock a ball. Repeat the target-and-saucer pair until the third lock starts Triple Knights Challenge.
Alternative route: WAR
Use this when the center hurry-up shots are working.
- Complete the W-A-R lanes, then shoot the three lit center hurry-ups.
