Holy crap people, let the crossbow thing DIE. It's not in the game, no reason to make me crazy trying to make-up random bullshit about it and putting it on the wiki. [[User:Xyrth|xyrth]] 15:51, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

One thing that might be valuable to know is that Altair can counter attack with his fists. He punches the opponent repeatedly and stabs them with his hidden blade. --Digipatd 20:17, 29 March 2008 (EST)

He can? I knew he could counter-attack with the hidden blade, but the fists too? I'll have to try that.[[User:Imperialscouts|Imperialscouts]] 03:10, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

:Isn't it a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katar Katar]? It's so written in the German [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin%27s_Creed Wikipedia] article! -->> [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin%E2%80%99s_Creed Graman Wikipedia Assassin's Creed] --[[Special:Contributions/84.169.104.155|84.169.104.155]] 18:49, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

== Reason for changing ==

I couldn't find another site saying you could use the crossbow and the editor was obviously spamming.

== Not a Katar, not fists ==

The [http://en.wikipedia.org/Katar Katar] is not what he uses, only something similar to it. Look up what a Katar is and you'll understand the differences. The blade the Assassins use is pure fiction.

Also, the fists are not a weapon. Well, you can try to attack an enemy using punches like a thug you beat for interrogation missions, but against an armed guard it is suicide -- there is no counter or block, and attacks do little damage. However, using the hidden blade allows one to use it for counterattack only (or when an enemy is boasting/distracted and can be jumped on and assassinated).

==Please, People...==
Has anybody here heard of grammar? Whatever it is, this article is atrocious in terms of punctuation and run-on sentences. If anybody could clean this up...

What was the point of splitting the list into AC1 and AC2 weapon pages, if they all link back to the same articles?

{{quote|Hello. This is...they call me Subject 16. Listen, I don't have much time - there's something I have to show you. We have been lied to this whole time; everything we know, everything we've been brought up to believe - it's wrong.|Subject 16}}

The Truth Is a sidequest in [[Assassin's Creed II]] that can be unlocked by uncovering [[glyphs]] throughout the world, and solving the puzzles that accompany each glyph. There are 20 in all, and successfully unlocking each one will give a bit more insight into the Origins of the Templars, the Assassins, and the [[Piece of Eden]].

In the video, [[Adam and Eve]] are seen running from something. They move through an open area which may be The Garden of Eden. The scenery is a mixture between flora, a shiny blue material that resembles glass, and a white surface which sounds like stone. The garden is decorated in a very futuristic style which is a strong contrast against the biblical setting. Moving through a circular automatic door, Adam and Eve use free-running (similar to that used by the [[Assassins]]) to climb a large, futuristic looking building. While they are climbing the building, a shadow can be seen holding a [[Piece of Eden]] to control several human slaves. These workers appear to be in an environment similar to that of a metal refinery. The slave in the foreground is clearly using a hammer to shape a metal object. The brief appearance of the shadow is visually similar to [[Minerva]], sharing the flowing clothes and glowing emblem on the headwear.  [[Adam and Eve]] continue climbing until they reach the roof of the building. The camera zooms outwards, revealing many other futuristic buildings surrounding them. Further in the background, a mountain is clearly visible, while there is little other elevation in land elsewhere. The terrain is lush, and large forest boundaries are visible. Eve can then be seen to be holding a [[Piece of Eden]]. Eve then says "Adam, I have it!", Adam then yells: "Eve, Look out!" The memory suddenly ends, and binary code flashes up. The numbers read: "EDEN"

These glyphs are based upon the markings left behind in [[Assassin's Creed]], which were left behind by [[Subject 16]], and written in his blood. Many of these glyphs can be recognized as the [[Cryptic Messages]] from the previous game.

A list of decrypted messages pertaining to The Truth or that are part of it can be found [[The Truth|here]].

== Trivia ==

[[File:Lolcookie.jpg|thumb|255px|Mount Kilimanjaro bears a strong resemblance to the Mountain in the Truth Video]]
*It is very interesting to note and speculate how Subject 16 managed to get ahold of this video. It is also very probable (considering 16's strong knowledge on the subject) that he knew a lot more than what the video depicted, considering at one Glyph he says "There, do you see what's going on........? *Sigh* not yet, but you will". Meaning that he might have known a large lot about the events that appeared in the video, and beyond.

*The Binary at the end of the video translates to EDEN

*[[Altaïr]] himself saw the video at one point in his life. As in one of the codex pages, he says the video is the most troubling thing his eyes have ever witnessed. It is clear that he had watched the video, possibly shown to him by the Apple of Eden, describing all the things that happen in the video. Speaking of screaming that still echoes in his mind, flame and fire, and tall metal towers that are overlooked by a mountain. Oddly enough, he does not actually mention or reference to [[Adam and Eve]] in any way, while speaking of it. This may also explain how [[Subject 16]] knows about the video, if 16 is another descendant of [[Altaïr]], then it's possible Abstergo ripped the content of this video through the animus, as the same glitches show up through the video when Desmond was in the Animus. Subject 16 likely saw the same as Altaïr, and succeeded to obtain the data Abstergo ripped from his memory and hid it for others to find.
*It is also possible that what [[Altaïr]] saw was a glimpse of the future, in which the Twin Towers (Towers of glass and steel) were struck by the two aeroplanes, causing flame and fire, as well as screaming.

*It looks like the mountain in the background is Mount Kilimanjaro, as the mountain is visually Identical to the mountain. The image appears to be taken from the one in [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mt._Kilimanjaro_12.2006.JPG Wikimedia], except that it's horizontally flipped. This also makes sense because Mount Kilimanjaro is in Africa, and the origins of humans are said to be in Africa. Also, one of the dots on the codex map in [[AC2]] is in Africa, at roughly the area of Mount Kilimanjaro. Further adding to this theory is that Lucy herself said that Vidic tagged events in the Middle East and Ancient Africa.

*It's possible that [[Subject 16]] is a descendant of [[Adam and Eve]] and that [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad|Altair]] could be related to [[Adam and Eve]].

*Also since Minerva has been a "god" to many other religions which is the reason of her many names, she could have had an evil version which could possibly be the silhouette in the window while Adam and Eve are climbing up the building. There is a very similar to the shape of Minerva's body
