The medieval knight was the equivalent of the modern tank.

• He was covered in multiple layers of armour, and could plough through foot soldiers standing in his way.

• No single foot soldier or archer could stand up to any one knight.

• The knight was one of three types of fighting men during the middle ages: Knights, Foot Soldiers, and Archers.
