You can kill the pterodactyl by hitting it EXACTLY in the beak with your
lance.  This gives rise to an easy way to get 20K points:
On the sixth or later waves, kill all of the knights but one.  Let the last
one get caught by that hand that comes out of the lava.  Quickly position
yourself to the lower centre plateau.  Eventually, pterodactyls will start to
appear.  Point yourself at them.  They will fly right into your lance and
die.  If you're good at it, you can get up to 2 free "mounts" before too many
attack and you are killed...
