<p>220.255.2.113: /* Trivia */</p> <hr /> <div>{{Era|ACR}} {{Imageneed}}<br /> {{WP-REAL}}<br /> {{Stub}}<br /> [[File:Guard-almogavar-ACR.png|right|200px]]<br /> The '''Almogavars''' were fairly uncommon [[guards]] that appeared in [[Constantinople]] and [[Cappadocia]] during the [[Renaissance]]. Roughly comparable to the [[Brutes]] from [[Rome]], they fought with [[heavy weapons]], were rather slow compared to other enemies, and wore thick armor. Like the [[Varangians]], the Almogavars were [[Byzantines|Byzantine]] guards. They are featured in many missions.<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> *The Almogavars were historically soldiers of aragones and catalan origin. They were known to have worked as mercenaries for the Byzantine Empire.<br /> *The Almogavars, like the [[Janissaries]] – except in some missions – are always found carrying the same weapon: the [[Almogavar Axe]].<br /> *The Almogavar Axe can also be used as a weapon, after completing [[The Champion, Part 1]] memory.<br /> *It is peculiar that Almogavars use heavy weapons in-game, they used lances and spears historically.<br /> *Some courageous Templar Den Captains look and fight like Almogavars. Some cowardly Captains also look like Almogavars.<br /> *Unlike [[Brutes]] in [[Assassin's Creed 2]] and [[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]], Almogavars '''can''' be killed with a counter if their attack is '''not''' the overhead smash.<br /> *Almogavars seem to have a unique weakness to Datura Bombs, as evidenced from both [[Piri Reis: Datura]] and usual gameplay; the poison kills them about twice as fast.<br /> <br /> <br /> {{ACR}}<br /> [[Category:Guards]]<br /> [[Category:Article stubs]]<br /> [[Category:Assassin's Creed: Revelations Gameplay]]</div>
