>You mentioned Knights in Armor exactly 10 times in Your post (I've counted !) - U >really, really, really love that game
Heh, but actually it was the opposite when first seeing the game in 1976. I only recall seeing it once. Read old posts from May 2012 to see my opinion of the game when describing it in 1976.
The PSE game that I really enjoyed playing in arcades is PSE's Desert Patrol. The thing about Knights in Armor is the love of the 'challenge' of trying to find anything of parts about the game besides the flyer. And one significant part found is the paperwork that is needed to determine how the game operates.
With schematics found, it now provides a fighting chance that the game can be partially emulated for now. The roms being added later will be the completion.
The rom hardware chip types and their location on the pcb is currently documented in the source code along with Game Tree (another undumped game).
I also uploaded the instructions sheets in December 2013 in case anyone was able to match the fonts exactly so the instruction cards can be preserved. So far no one has been able to find exact font type used with Knights in Armor instruction card.
The reason why this is being done now is because when the games were sold to arcades or operated by vendors back then, the instruction cards were considered disposable so after a card is used, it would usually get thrown away rather than saved and reused later.
This would happen after an operator adjusted the game settings. It would be ideal if we knew what all the options and settings are and that can't be done if all the instruction pieces are discarded. That's why it is important saving instruction card pieces as well as the roms of the game.

It might be doable, but it could be awhile just like Raiden II being not playable for some time until 2014.
