The maps can be downloaded below in the "Episodes" section. They are 1.3 Friendly.
To play skirmish, make sure you add as many computers as possible. In Multiplayer if you use 1.3, this isn't necessary but in 1.7/1.73 it is.
This is a possession map made for multiplayer. It can be played in skirmish, but the full effect of the game requires 3/4 players. Players will be able to choose their Knight, each Knight has a different gameplay. Player 4 is the only one who can be the fourth Knight, but it is his only choice.
There will be quite a number of these maps to complete the series. If you wish to help test future maps, PM me about it.
There will be 10 "Episodes" with plot, the 11th episode has no plot and is merely a bonus episode to have a free for all battle between all characters, including the "Locked" bosses.
Be warned that not all passages can be used by the Knights.

Characters
Knight
Code Name: Squiggles
Real Name: Jimmy
Age: 19
Health: Low
Speed: High
Power: Low
Magic: Invisibility
Gameplay: The Knight cannot take too many hits and usually focuses on dodging. His goal is to fight support units as well as distract them from his allies. His speed makes up for his lack of Health, and also is an insult to any and all support. He usually moves around quickly and circles enemies to weaken all of them where one of his allies finishes them, usually the Black Knight.
Personality: Childish, goofy
Biography: Jimmy came from a small town called Eversmile. He used to lead it for a while, and protected it well with his great speed. His armor was very light, and he held more strength in his feet than arms. Soon another Knight took Jimmy's place, and Jimmy ventured a long time before he ran into Ivan. Then he followed Ivan in a long journey, which they had no idea what to do... of course until they met Rob. Jimmy likes to play games with Ivan and Rob but mostly makes fun of Rob's slow speed.
-------------------------
Stone Knight
Code Name: Stoner
Real Name: Ivan
Age: 43

Personality: Serious, protective, parental
