I have broken down the black knights and fright knights like this. I have
also intergrated the royal knights into the crusaders. I only have one of
the black frightknight breastplate torso's and a minor hero has it. the red
torso's and the red armored ninja torso are a second faction and the really
cool lt grey torso's are a faction. the old style breastplate torso's are
either cruseders (red) black falcons (blue) or skeletons (black) and the
chain mail torsos are black falcons or crusaders. I like how the chainmail
torso looks with the alien armor
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=28748,http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=28760)
also the new bull torso with the brown chain mail and green collar is pretty
cool I use it for forestmen and with the black shoulder armor (which hides
the green collar) for the commander of my bulls. The new(ish) grey chain
mail torso used in knights kingdom (and chess king) is great. as for the
knight kingsdom 4811 archer torso I guess it is o.k. but I think it is too busy.
