'''Swords and maces''' were [[weapons]] used by military units, [[guards]], and members of the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]] to engage in open combat against armed opponents, and usually acted as primary weapons alongside a [[Short blades|short blade]] or [[Firearms|pistol]]. Swords could be either one or two-handed, though the latter was mostly classified as a [[Heavy weapons|heavy weapon]].

Swords and maces both had a long reach, great power, and a quick attack rate, though not as much as [[long weapons]], heavy weapons or short blades, respectively. As such, they could be seen as the most balanced weapons available.

Aside from attack, a sword or mace could also be used to block or counter an enemy, or break through their defense. They were also the only weapons that could be used from [[Horses|horseback]].

==History==
===Third Crusade===
[[File:Altair sword evolution.png|thumb|left|250px|The swords used by Altaïr in 1191]]
In the High Middle Ages, guards used no other melee weapon but swords, and the guards of [[Masyaf]] regularly practiced swordplay in the courtyard, stressing how important it was to wield a blade. Maces were uncommon at the time, and the sword was a mainstay in any arsenal, even for [[archers]].

The sword became available to an Assassin upon reaching the second [[Ranks|rank]], with more powerful, better quality swords being presented to him as he progressed. [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] began with a dull-gray sword that lacked a guard and had a curved hilt. His second sword resembled the first, though it possessed a silvery sheen and a distinct pommel.

The third sword was [[Sword of Altaïr|his personal weapon]], which was constructed of a hand guard that was shaped like an eagle's wings, along with an eagle's head at the pommel. Altaïr's final sword was the [[Syrian Sabre]]. It had a curved blade, a characteristic of Arabic swords, and indicated a very high status, as the hilt and sheath were covered in gold.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed]]''</ref>

===Renaissance===
[[File:ACII-Armory 2.png|thumb|250px|Weapon room in the Villa Auditore]]
Come the [[Renaissance]], maces had become equally as popular as the sword, and matched them in use and availability. The first sword [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] obtained came from [[Giovanni Auditore da Firenze|his father]], and was stored in a chest hidden in the [[Palazzo Auditore]]. However, he quickly lost it when he was disarmed in his attempt to save his father and brothers from execution.

Ezio was later equipped with a similar sword, courtesy of his uncle, [[Mario Auditore]], when he arrived at [[Monteriggioni]]. Following this, he could buy a variety of swords or maces from [[blacksmiths]]. Any unequipped weapons he later purchased were stored at the [[Villa Auditore]] [[armory]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>

Swords and maces continued to be a central part of combat in [[Rome]]. Around this time, Ezio was more aggressive in his fights, and used a variety of new attacks against his enemies. Additionally, Ezio learned to [[Dual-wielding|dual-wield]] his [[Hidden Gun]] with his primary weapon, in order to kill an enemy from a distance, or perform an instant double kill with both his sword and gun during a kill-streak.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref>

===Golden Age of Piracy===
During the [[Golden Age of Piracy]], the Assassin [[Edward Kenway]] used a variety of swords. He typically kept a pair on his person, dual-wielding them in combat.

==Trivia==
;''Assassin's Creed II''
*All weapons on the special weapons rack could be obtained after synchronizing with the PSP, upon completion of ''[[Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines]].''
*The Sword of Altaïr and the Condottiero War Hammer could only be purchased from the blacksmith shop in [[Monteriggioni]].
*Every purchasable weapon was available at Monteriggioni's blacksmith after Sequence 11, apart from the Condottiero War Hammer, which was unlocked after collecting 50 [[feathers]].
*The Syrian sabre dealt less damage than the Sword of Altaïr, despite the Syrian sabre having been the best sword.
*The first sword that Ezio acquired was the common sword. However, when he was disarmed by a [[Brutes|Brute]] during the execution of his family, it became the Syrian sabre.

;''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood''
*The [[Captain]] used a shortsword that resembled a shorter version of the Milanese Sword.
*The Scimitar, Maul, Flanged Mace, Channeled Cinquedea, and Florentine Falchion were used by the guards, but were not purchasable from the blacksmiths. However, they could be acquired by disarming a guard while Ezio did not have a weapon equipped.
