Part 1

Part 1 of the Assassin's Creed Brotherhood guide covers the introduction, version history, and controls for all three consoles. Learn about the game's setting and core mechanics.

Welcome to my 34th Guide, the guide for the Ubisoft game Assassin's Creed, a game set in during the crusades where an assassin, Altair, changes the course of the crusade via a few assassinations. To the name, you play an assassin dispatching all those deemed unworthy to live, and many others along the way.

Contary to modern assassinations, you do not get to use any ranged weapons in the game. The enemy does get the bow, but you do not. Your have a small arsenal, no more arsenal a la GTA where you can carry a rocket launcher, sniper rifles, assault rifles and the like all at once. You get a 3 different blades, and that is all.

Note that this is all fiction, there are no special corporations that are set up by the Templars to find a holy object. Or none that we currently know of. Anyway, the storyline of this is pretty good, and you don't know really know what is going on, even at the ending of the game. It is obviously a set up to Assassin's Creed 2 - The Something. It is a good game, and clearly satisfies all the hype for it. And remember the three tenets of the Assassin's Creed.

1. Do not kill innocent civilians
2. Always hide in plain sight
3. Never Compromise the Brotherhood.

Anyway, with that out of the way, welcome to my guide, and have fun reading, or not. The irony if Ubisoft turned out to be run by Knight Templars.

And as a side note, Altair is pronounced Al-ta-eer, not Al-tair. It is in Arabic you know. And Acre is pronoucned A-cre, not a-cre. The Capital A is a different sound to a Uncapitalised a.
