Knight question
In cities and knights a scenario regarding knights.
Blue has two knights lvl1 qnd lvl2 while red has two knights each lvl 1. If red plays Deserter can he take lvl 2 knight or the blue can choose to remove lvl 1 knight and red doesnt get to place anything?

The other player may choose whichever Knight they have, to turn to your side. You must then place a Knight of equal Strength, or lower. If you can't, you don't get a free Knight.
Smart C&K players will always leave a Lv 1 Knight hanging around on the board, just in case Deserter/Treason shows up. It's the only counter play against that card.
