Knight

"Knights are noble warriors that fight for right, not for personal gain. Peace will come to the galaxy only when evil has been vanquished"

Knight Unique Power
The Knight acquires the Summon Mini-U unique ability. Summon Mini-U can be used to summon a miniature version of your own ship that acts as an ally in your fleet. Pirates also have the Summon Mini-U ability, yet they can create more than one Mini-U.

Through Evolution
The Knight archetype is awarded to species that gain every color, plus an extra red.

Through Mission
While it is possible to encounter knights in the galaxy, (Through other saved games) it is not possible to convert to the knight's philosophy and acquire the Summon Mini-U ability. Instead, when trying to convert to the philosophy of a knight empire, the philosophy acquired will instead be that of a warrior. This applies to encountering a knight empire somewhere throughout the galaxy and also to saved games that have the knight archetype in the space stage.

Other Notes
Knights cannot be encountered as randomly generated AI races during space stage. For unknown reasons there is no entry for knights in the game files that set the chance of any given race spawning and as such they (Like wanderers) will never appear.

Voice
Knights can only sound like your empire because there is no way to find a CPU knight empire other than a file you are not currently playing.

In Galactic Adventures
Although all other archetypes (except wanderers) have their own set of tools to unlock for a captain, knights don't. Caballero
