===The Target===
</tabber>
The noise and commotion of the Bazaar make it the perfect place to act. A small contingent of servants belonging to the Byzantine Ambassador are weaving their way through the bustle of the Bazaar, each carrying a different item. However, you cannot tell from a distance which servant is missing a finger. You must identify the correct chest before your chance to get the Astrolabe piece is gone.


;People of the Revolution
<tabber>
<tabber>
|-|Chest painted with scroll motifs=
|-|John Adams=
The scroll motif suggests Greco-Roman and Persian influence.
John Adams was a foundational figure of the American Revolution. A Harvard-educated lawyer from Massachusetts, Adams rose to prominence by opposing the 1765 Stamp Act, serving as a delegate to the First and Second Continental Congresses, and working to build the newly formed American navy.
 
While sympathetic to the patriot cause, his belief in the rule of law led him to successfully defend British soldiers involved in the 1770 Boston Massacre. In Congress, he was instrumental in persuading delegates to declare independence, nominating George Washington as commander of the Continental Army, and playing a key role in drafting the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Later, he was central in negotiating the 1783 Treaty of Paris, which officially ended the Revolutionary War. Adams later authored the 1780 Massachusetts Constitution, influencing the future U.S. Constitution. He served as the first vice president under Washington and as the second president of the United States.
 
|-|Samuel Adams=
Born in Boston, Samuel Adams was a pivotal Founding Father, political philosopher, and civic leader who galvanized colonial resistance against British authority. He strongly opposed the Stamp Act and other parliamentary taxation measures, leading to his involvement in the formation and operation of the Sons of Liberty in Boston. During the 1760s and 1770s he coordinated anti-British activities both within Boston and across the colonies, including the Boston Tea Party.<br><br>As a delegate to the Continental Congress, Adams was a firm advocate for separating from Britain, signing the Declaration of Independence in 1776. He was also involved in drafting the Articles of Confederation and, after the war, served as governor of Massachusetts.
 
|-|Crispus Attucks=
Crispus Attucks was one of the first casualties of the American Revolution. As an escaped slave working as a sailor and dock worker in Boston, he became a protest leader and the first victim of the Boston Massacre. During the confrontation with British soldiers on King Street, Attucks stood at the forefront of a crowd, demanding that the soldiers leave. When the soldiers opened fire, Attucks was shot twice in the chest, dying instantly.<br><br>Although his death was used as political propaganda to fuel anti-British sentiment during the period, his status as a martyr was cemented by 19th-century abolitionists who highlighted his sacrifice as a testament to Black patriotism.


The decoration clearly indicates that this is the right chest. As you move closer, you can see the servant is missing a finger. Despite your insight, the servants are about to leave the Bazaar by the time you reach them. You must quickly find a way to take the Astrolabe piece!
|-|Benjamin Franklin=
Benjamin Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers. A seasoned diplomat in London, he initially opposed the Stamp Act and, upon returning to America, he helped draft the Declaration of Independence in 1776. One of his most significant contributions to the Revolution was serving as the primary American envoy to France from 1776 to 1778. Using his fame as a scientist and diplomatic expertise, he secured essential French financial and military support. This support is widely regarded as being instrumental in turning the tide of the war.<br><br>Franklin is the only Founding Father to sign all three major documents establishing the United States: the Declaration of Independence (1776), the Treaty of Paris ending the war (1783), and the U.S. Constitution (1787).


|-|Box painted with stripes=
|-|John Hancock=
This is a traditional and simple design.
John Hancock was an American merchant, statesman, and prominent Patriot leader during the American Revolution. Inheriting a massive fortune from his uncle, Hancock became one of New England’s wealthiest men and used this wealth and influence to oppose British taxation policies. His defiance made him popular in Boston, particularly after customs officials seized his ship, the Liberty, in 1768 on charges of smuggling.<br><br>Hancock served as the President of the Second Continental Congress from 1775 to 1777, and after the war, he served as the first and third Governor of Massachusetts. He is best known for being the first person to sign the Declaration of Independence in 1776, doing so with a large, bold signature to defy King George III.


The chest is too plain to be the one you are after. Finding the chest with the ornate Abbasid scroll motifs takes you time and the servants are about to leave the Bazaar by the time you reach them. That was close!
|-|Thomas Jefferson=
Thomas Jefferson was a pivotal figure in the American Revolution, acting as a leading intellectual, a political activist, and the primary author of the Declaration of Independence. Throughout the conflict, while he did not fight on the battlefield, he sought to transform the American colonies into a modern republic, advocating for the separation of church and state, the abolition of feudal inheritance laws, and widespread educational reform. As a delegate to the Second Continental Congress in 1776, the 33-year-old Virginian was tasked with drafting the document that justified the colonies’ break from Great Britain, articulating the foundational American ideals of ''"Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness"''.


|-|Woven lidded basket=
|-|Marquis de Lafayette=
Perhaps the piece is hiding in plain sight.
Marquis de Lafayette was a French aristocrat and military officer who played a crucial role in the American Revolution, acting as a vital link between the American colonies and France. Inspired by the American cause of liberty, the 19-year-old defied King Louis XVI and traveled to America in 1777, volunteering to serve without pay.<br><br>He quickly formed a close bond with George Washington and was commissioned as a major general in the Continental Army. Lafayette proved his bravery and skill in battle and was wounded in action. This led him to return to France and lobby for increased military aid, successfully securing French troops and supplies for the colonies. Returning to America in 1781, he led American forces against Lord Cornwallis in Virginia, setting the stage for the decisive American-French victory at the Siege of Yorktown.<br><br>After returning to France after the war, Lafayette remained a lifelong friend of the United States and was granted honorary U.S. citizenship in 2002.
 
|-|Paul Revere=
Paul Revere was a prominent Boston silversmith, industrialist, and dedicated Patriot. A leading member of the Sons of Liberty, Revere organized intelligence networks to monitor British troops and co-originated anti-British agitation, including taking part in the 1773 Boston Tea Party. During the war, Revere served in the Massachusetts Militia and manufactured gunpowder for the Continental Army.<br><br>He is most well known for his dramatic midnight ride on April 18, 1775, to warn colonists of advancing British forces. Following instructions, a ''"one if by land, two if by sea"'' signal was placed in the Old North Church, alerting Revere to the British route across the Charles River. Along with William Dawes and others, Revere spread the alarm from Boston to Lexington, enabling leaders John Hancock and Samuel Adams to escape and allowing militiamen to prepare for the crucial battles of Lexington and Concord. Though captured by a British patrol shortly after his ride, his mission was successful. This was later immortalized in Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s 1861 poem, ''"Paul Revere's Ride"'' transforming him into a lasting symbol of American independence and civic bravery.
 
|-|Joseph Warren=
Joseph Warren was a Founding Father of the United States and a central leader in the Patriot movement in Boston during the early American Revolution. A respected physician and member of the Sons of Liberty, Warren became a key political organizer. He often acted as a master spy, utilizing his intelligence network to stay ahead of British movements. Notably, on April 18, 1775, it was Warren who dispatched Paul Revere and William Dawes on their famous midnight ride to warn John Hancock and Samuel Adams of the British march toward Lexington and Concord.<br><br>Despite having little formal military training, Warren was later appointed a major general and showed immense courage by volunteering as a private soldier in the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775, where he was killed in action at age 34.
 
|-|George Washington=
George Washington was the commander-in-chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. Tasked with fighting a superior British force, Washington formed the colonial militias into a disciplined fighting force. Despite losing more battles than he won, his resilience, strategic retreats, and crucial victories, such as the final victory at Yorktown, secured American independence.<br><br>Unanimously elected, Washington served as president from 1789 to 1797, where he implemented a strong, well-financed national government, including the creation of a national bank. His dedication to civilian control of the military, together with his voluntary retirement after two terms, helped secure the stability of American democracy.


As you get closer, you can see that the carrier is not a servant but a merchant carrying a basket of goods to a stall in the Bazaar. This is clearly the wrong chest. Locating the correct target, the chest with scroll motifs, takes you time and means the servants have almost left the Bazaar by the time you catch up with them. That was close!
</tabber>
</tabber>


===The Distraction===
;Memories
The Byzantine Ambassador and the servant carrying the Astrolabe piece are almost out of the busy crowd, reducing your chances of covertly obtaining the piece. How will you gain access to the chest?
<tabber>
|-|Banner=
;The Flag
You are outside Faneuil Hall. In 1776, while the Revolution was in full swing, this area was a hotbed of Patriotic sentiment. Talks were delivered here and revolutionary banners displayed openly despite the British occupation. Alongside Samuel Adams, create a banner and unfurl it on the front of the building in defiance at British rule.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era Boston and head to Faneuil Hall.
 
;Historical details
When the Thirteen Colonies of America were seceding from the British at the start of the revolution, it became necessary for a flag to be created to symbolize the patriot cause and rally individuals for the Revolution!<br><br>These flags were often created by local artists and revolutionary groups to reflect the locations or the key messages that they stood for. One famous example is The Moultrie Flag. Commissioned by Colonel William Moultrie in 1775 to prepare for war with Britain, it depicts a white crescent moon with the word “LIBERTY” inscribed within it on a field of navy blue.
 
;Instructions
Objective
Alongside Sons of Liberty member Samuel Adams, and the proud revolutionaries in Boston, design a banner to show your defiance of British rule.
 
Creating
Tap on the highlighted items on the table to customize each element of your banner. \nYou can choose the slogan, emblem, pattern, and cloth.
 
Flying the banner
Once you're happy with your design, tap the highlighted ladder to unfurl your banner.
 
;What happens
*'''Samuel Adams:''' [Start] ''Greetings friend. Make your banner then head to the ladder to unfurl it on the building.''
*'''Samuel Adams:''' [Decal chosen] ''We need a strong image that speaks to the justness of our cause..''
*'''Samuel Adams:''' [Pattern chosen] ''Remember, it is through our own hands that we make our destiny.''
*'''Samuel Adams:''' [Phrase chosen] ''Let them know it only takes a tireless minority committed to liberty.''
*'''Samuel Adams:''' [Ladder tapped] ''Shall we unfurl your creation? Look up at the front of the building.''
*'''Samuel Adams:''' [Banner shown] ''A fine creation, a banner like that will inspire all who see it!''


<tabber>
;Outcome
|-|Counterfeit goods=
*Banner Created
Pose as an assistant to the Market Inspector.
Your banner proudly flies over Boston and stands as a rallying symbol for the Revolution. It joins the many patriotic flags that are being created all over America to show protest and pride in the creation of a new nation.
 
;Log
Outside the famous Faneuil Hall I joined Patriot Samuel Adams and constructed my own revolutionary banner. Unfurling it on the front of the building I made my opposition to British rule clear.
 
|-|Boats=
;An American Navy
This area, now known as Boston Common, was public common Iand used as a training ground for Soldiers throughout the Revolution. In 1775, the British Navy controlled the Atlantic and Congress decided to create a new Continental Navy. Train alongside naval captain John Paul Jones to learn to command a ship. \n\nLook out over the docks of revolutionary era Boston and begin your naval training.
 
;Historical details
At the start of the American Revolution, the Royal Navy faced little opposition from the fledgling American Navy. Several colonies maintained small state navies, and in 1775 Congress authorized the creation of a Continental Navy. These forces amounted to only several dozen small vessels and a handful of frigates.\n\nOne particularly notable American naval officer of the Revolutionary War was John Paul Jones. Among several victories he was responsible for the capture of the Royal Navy frigate Serapis. He came to be regarded as the father of the American Navy due to his advocacy for and training of American Naval officers.
 
;Instructions
Objective
Join Captain John Paul Jones to take command of a ship and complete the training exercise in the shortest time possible, demonstrating and honing your skills.
 
The course
To complete the course, you must sail through all the checkpoints in the lowest time possible.\n \nYou can lower your time by sinking the other ships as you go.
 
Controlling your ship
Rotate the wheel by drawing a circle on your screen to steer the ship.\n\nDrag the sail bar up or down to control speed.
 
Firing your cannons
Tap the cannon icons to fire from either side of your ship. \n\nAfter each volley, your cannons will be temporarily unavailable while your crew reloads; time your shots wisely.


Concerned he will be fined if he does not obey your instructions, the servant opens the chest for your examination, immediately and without any questions. That was the perfect choice!
;What happens
*'''Cpt. John Paul Jones:''' [Start] ''America will need a strong navy. Sail through all four checkpoints as fast as you can!''
*'''Cpt. John Paul Jones:''' [Checkpoint 1] ''Maneuverability will let you have the weather gauge. Staying upwind of your target gives you the advantage.''
*'''Cpt. John Paul Jones:''' [Checkpoint 2] ''Remember, position will be critical for you to run alongside your enemy and give them a broadside. ''
*'''Cpt. John Paul Jones:''' [Checkpoint 3] ''Pray you remember this training when you find yourself in the fray, and you will be fine.''


|-|Trip the servant=
;Outcome
Trip the servant carrying the chest and gain access to it by helping him to pick it up.
*Naval practice complete
Congratulations, you have completed the course. The skills that you have learned today will underpin the formation of the new American navy.\n \nHopefully it will be enough to help us defend ourselves against the most powerful navy in the world.


The servant falls, and the plan works. However, a corner of the chest gets damaged! Hopefully the Caliph will not notice. That was a very risky choice, posing as an assistant to the Market Inspector would have been more effective.
;Log
With the Congressional decision to create a new Continental Navy, I trained with John Paul Jones and learned to captain a ship.  


|-|Steal the chest=
|-|GDT=
Snatch the chest from the servant, run, and have it returned once you have taken the piece of the Astrolabe
;Green Dragon
The Green Dragon Tavern stands before you. In its original form, in 1775, it was used by the Sons of Liberty for their resistance activities in British-occupied Boston. Join William Bowes, a member of the Sons of Liberty, find a cipher hidden in the tavern, to decrypt an urgent secret message.\n\nEnter revolutionary era Boston and head to the famous Green Dragon Tavern.


You are chased through the Bazaar and only just manage to escape. Your improvisational skills may have worked but that was risky. Masquerading as an assistant to the Market Inspector would have been less suspicious.
;Historical details
</tabber>
The Green Dragon Tavern was a popular meeting place for the Sons of Liberty, a clandestine group of Revolutionaries who worked for America's independence. Their work was kept secret through a network of supporters and through a range of spy craft during the revolution, from coded lantern signals to invisible ink and complex ciphers. \n \nAmong the most notable ciphers of the era was that developed by James Lovell, though it frequently failed in practice. Lovell's hints at the keyword were often so obscure as to be useless, as this instruction to John Adams illustrates: \"You certainly can recollect the name of that family where you and I spent our last evening together... Make regular alphabets in number equal to the first sixth part of that family name.\" Adams struggled so persistently with the cipher that he once accused Benjamin Franklin of deliberately withholding information, having simply failed to decode his letter.


===The Replacement===
;Instructions
You slip the Astrolabe piece out of the chest and hide it in your clothing. Earlier you stole three possible items to replace it with from a perfume stall in the Qaysariyya. Knowing that the replacement needs to be a rare and expensive gift fit for a Caliph, which of the three do you choose?
Objective
William Bowes, member of the Sons of Liberty, is deciphering an important letter for John Adams while he is away. Find the cipher he has hidden somewhere in the tavern.


<tabber>
Interaction
|-|Camphor powder=
Tap on objects in the tavern to interact with them.
Powdered Camphor Bark will impress with its deep dark scent.


This rare fragrance from far away lands is exotic and highly desirable. The Caliph will be delighted with this gift!
Eagle Vision
If you need a hint, tap the Eagle Vision button to see what you need to investigate in the room.


|-|Myrrh=
;What happens
Myrrh will bewitch with its rich resinous scent.
*[Start] I need to find the hidden locked box and the key to it so I can get to the cipher. I heard him talk about paper, a painting, and the lanterns.
*[BookcaseTappedClosed] This bookcase looks like it moves, but it's too heavy to pull. Maybe there's a secret way of opening?
*[LanternFirst] The lanterns seems to control something in the room. I need to work out the pattern.
*[Painting] Ah, this must be a pattern to the lanterns. I should see if I can make them match.
*[LanternComplete] That opened a hidden area behind the bookcase. There is the locked box!
*[BoxNoKey] Hmm, this box is locked. There must be a key hidden somewhere.
*[FirstPaper] This scrap of a drawing seems important. I'll place it on the table over there.
*[TableMissing] I need to find some more pieces of drawing to work out what this is showing.
*[AllPaper] That looks like it's all of them. I should look at what it's made on the table.
*[TableComplete] This shows the dragon sign on the wall. I should take a closer look and see if it matches.
*[DragonComplete] This now matches the drawing. I've found a key in its mouth!
*[Key] You have aligned the section of the Green Dragon sign to match the design from the pieces of paper. This has opened a secret compartment and you have found a key.\n\nThis must be a key to the locked box that contains the cipher.
*[BoxWithKey] The key opened it and the cipher is inside. Now I can read the letter!


Arabia has produced Myrrh since ancient times and it is easily obtained. The Caliph will not be impressed by this gift. The rare Camphor powder would have been more fitting for the Caliph.
;Outcome
*Message Deciphered
You have successfully helped the Sons of Liberty decipher a secret message vital to the Revolution. \n\nClandestine communications are essential for effectively fighting against the British, so long as they are not too complicated to decode!


|-|Balsalm=
;Log
Balsalm will intrigue with its familiar sharp scent.
Alongside William Bowes, a member of the Sons of Liberty, I solved the puzzle of the Green Dragon tavern and managed to find the cipher to an urgent secret message.


Arabia has produced Balsam since ancient times and it is easily obtained. The Caliph will not be impressed by this gift. The exotic Camphor powder would have been more fitting for the Caliph.

;Minutemen
The British had left Boston by 1778, and this area of Boston Common then served as an encampment and training ground for the Patriot militias. Gather your gear and prepare to join the fight as one of the famous Minutemen.\n\nEnter revolutionary era Boston and head to the street next to the encampments on Boston Common.


===Outcome===
;Historical details
<tabber>
As war broke out between the American colonies and Great Britain, the Americans were forced to adjust and evolve their military. This was previously defined by informal militia but as events around Boston became more tense, many communities in Massachusetts began to create more elite regiments. \n\nTheir regiments trained more frequently and were expected to be ready quickly, “at a minute’s warning...” They became known as “Minute Men.” These regiments were made of men from all economic and racial backgrounds and formed the backbone of the Revolutionary forces.\n

Harbiyah Bureau
*'''MILITIA:''' [Start] ''Thank you for answering the call of your country. Gather your seven items of gear.''
*'''MILITIA:''' [2 collected] ''This gear will be essential. You will need to gather 5 more.''
*'''MILITIA:''' [4 collected] ''Have a spring in your step Patriot. You need to gather three more.''
*'''MILITIA:''' [6 collected] ''Have a spring in your step Patriot. You need to gather only one more.''


A member of the Hidden Ones was careless while returning from a mission to gather a piece of the Astrolabe and was imprisoned for thievery. Hopefully he has managed to hide the Astrolabe piece on his person. It is up to you to salvage the operation; you must infiltrate the prison and get your Hidden One Brother out at once.
Equipment:
*Blanket
**Soldiers' blankets were mostly made of wool, linen, or the mixed cloth linsey-woolsey,  and came in a variety of colors and patterns. There was no official provision of blankets, and most were donated from people's own homes.
*Canteen
**A canteen - made of wood, tin, or glass - was vital for militia soldiers to carry water on the march. With a typical day's march covering 8 to 13 miles and a canteen holding just 1.4 liters, a soldier had to make that supply last the entire day unless he found a chance to refill it.
*Tricorn Hat
**Perhaps one of the most iconic and easily recognized pieces of clothing from the colonial era is the tri-corner hat, or more simply known as the tricorn. Although the style originated in Europe, it is now associated with the American Revolutionary War and the nation's fight for freedom.
*Powder Horns
**A militia soldier needed two powder horns: a large one, for the coarse powder used in the main charge in the musket, and a small one, to hold the more finely ground powder that was used in the priming pan. These were made from real horns that were often obtained from domestic cattle.
*Musket
**The most common weapon used during the American Revolution was the musket - a long smoothbore gun without grooves inside its barrel, fired from the shoulder. These weapons were slow, complicated to load and extremely inaccurate, and were normally only fired in volleys.
*Sword
**During the Revolutionary War, most infantrymen carried a hanger as a secondary weapon, a type of short sword with a blade about twenty-five inches long, designed to supplement their musket in close combat. This sword is based on the one carried by Massachusetts minute man James Taylor.
*Worm
**‘The Worm' was the name given to a corkscrew-shaped piece of metal which was used to extract any residual debris from the barrel of the soldier's musket when cleaning it. Every soldier had to carry one in order to keep the musket ready to use.

;Log
|-|Qadi (Judge)=
I joined the famous Minutemen at the encampment on Boston Common. There, under the command of Commander Bigelow, I gathered my gear and prepared to fight for the Patriot cause.
Pose as a Qadi, here to pass judgement on the innocence of the prisoner.


The guards at the prison gate jump to allow you quick entry as a Qadi has sufficient authority to refute Caliphal law. When you declare your Brother innocent, none of the guards dare to challenge you. A Qadi is the perfect disguise!
|-|Lanterns=
;A Light in the Dark
You are opposite the house of the renowned patriot Paul Revere. In 1775, during the British occupation of Boston, this spot was a hub of revolutionary sentiment. Learn from Patriot leader Joseph Warren how to signal with lantern light, in order to warn patriots about the movements of the British troops. \n\nEnter revolutionary era Boston and head through the streets around the house of Paul Revere.


|-|Shurta (Police)=
;Historical details
Pose as a Shurta, here to take the prisoner away for execution.
Paul Revere was a Revolutionary soldier and express rider who transported important documents and messages during the war. \n \nOn the night of April 18th, 1775, in response to a coded message delivered by the light of two lanterns in the tower of Old North church, he undertook a perilous ride to Lexington with the news that the British soldiers stationed in Boston were about to march. The successful raising of the alarm proved pivotal, allowing the Revolutionary forces to prepare and to their subsequent victory at the battles at Lexington and Concord.


The guards at the gate allow you entry, but ask why someone in prison for theft should face execution. If you had posed as a Qadi, you would have had enough power to remove the prisoner without facing a challenge from the guards. You may have to answer more questions on your way out.
;Instructions
Objective
Joseph Warren and other revolutionary spies would send covert messages using the light and shadows cast by lanterns.

Aligning the shadows
Pose as a Ghulam, here to take the prisoner out, and not to answer questions!
Tap on a lantern to select it, then drag anywhere on the screen to rotate the shape in front of it. \n\nAlign the shadow until it forms a recognizable image.


Your lack of authority as a soldier means the guards feel able to question you further. This would not have arisen had you posed as a Qadi. The guards begrudgingly allow you to enter the prison but mutter about checking with superiors.

Once inside the prison one of the guards begins to escort you to where your Brother is being held. He asks you what crime the prisoner you have come for committed - what do you tell him?
*LANTERNS LIT
You have demonstrated your ingenuity and are learning the skills you would need as a spy working for the Revolution.\n\nSending messages will allow for the supporters of the Revolution to share vital information about the British plans and troop movements.

|-|He is a thief (truth)=
Under the guidance of Patriot Joseph Warren I learned how to send messages with lantern light in the tradition of Paul Revere.
Just tell the guard the truth, you don't want to complicate matters.


The guard nods and continues walking, agreeing that most prisoners are either debtors, thieves or both. He doesn't appear to have any suspicions regarding you yet. Mixing a little truth into a lie makes it more believable, that was the right decision.
|-|Muskets=
;Fighting for Freedom
The British had left Boston by 1778, and this area of Boston Common then served as an encampment and training ground for the Patriot militias. Join the Militia recruits and practice using a musket for the coming battles. \n\nEnter revolutionary era Boston and head to the military training grounds.


|-|He is a political prisoner (lie)=
;Historical details
If you make the prisoner sound important the guard might get you to him faster.
Warfare during the Revolutionary war was defined by the musket. A complex weapon, it required loading by hand with powder, wadding, and ramrod - a slow process demanding extensive training to master. This training was also essential for developing the discipline and coordinated movement necessary for cohesion on the battlefield. \n\nThe musket's smooth, non-rifled barrel also made it highly inaccurate, meaning speed of fire mattered far more than precision. A well-trained British soldier could discharge four rounds a minute; most recruits, however, could manage only one or two, making rigorous training vital to the Revolutionary cause.


The guard takes you to the Mutbaq - a terrifying series of deep wells with important prisoners at the bottom of each of them. This detour costs you more time, you should have just told the guard the truth! You manage to backtrack, telling the guard he must have misheard, but he is looking at you suspiciously now, you will need to be more careful.
;Instructions
Objective
Members of the Massachusetts militia needed to learn how to use a musket by loading, aiming, and firing at the targets on the training grounds. Have a go!


|-|He is a murderer (lie)=
Loading
If you make the prisoner sound dangerous the guard might stop questioning you.
After each shot, you must reload. \n\nTap on the screen when the triangle touches the bar to load, then repeat to prime your musket.


The guard accuses you of being a fraud, since murderers are not imprisoned, they are executed! You are forced to knock out his guard and find another to help you reach your Brother. You should have just told the truth!
Aiming
</tabber>
To aim your musket, move your device; staying still will make the circle get smaller. \n\nYour shot will hit somewhere randomly within the circle, getting the circle to be smaller will help increase your accuracy.\n


===The Piece===
Firing
When you finally reach your Brother and free him from his restraints, he stands shakily on a broken leg. He whispers that the Astrolabe piece is gone, stolen from him by a guard as he was arrested - the same guard who is waiting to escort you both out! How will you get the piece back?
Tap on the screen to fire your musket.


<tabber>
Targets
|-|Offer the guard money for the piece=
These are the targets you need to hit, there are four of each in total.
The guard does not know the importance of the piece; he just wants to sell it for a couple of coins.


Guards are underpaid and supplement their income by stealing from prisoners. He hands over the piece of Astrolabe. You are confident that the guard will keep quiet because he will want to stay out of trouble for theft. That was tactfully done.
;Outcome
*Practice Complete
**Excellent shooting [good]/Good shooting [bad]
You have completed your musket practice - one of many skills vital to master as a member of the Massachusetts Militia.  


|-|Try to steal the piece back=
;Log
Hopefully the guard won't notice the theft until after you leave the prison.
Joining the Patriot Militia recruits I practiced using a musket on targets in the Boston Common. I was commended for my shooting and my preparedness for the coming battles.


You manage to steal the piece from the guard on your way out of the prison. Unfortunately, he soon notices it was missing and starts searching for it - you had better leave the prison immediately. Perhaps you should have paid him for it instead.
|-|Tea=
;A Tea Party
You are standing on the edge of the waterfront. Over the last 250 years, it has moved out, as during the Revolution it was further back. In 1773 and Boston was a powder keg of anger and revolutionary sentiment. Following a firebrand speech against the Stamp Act, join revolutionary John Spurr and throw British tea into the Harbor.\n\nEnter the docks of revolutionary era Boston and head to the waterfront.


|-|Knock out the guard, then take the piece=
;Historical details
Hopefully you can find your way out without his help.
The Boston Tea Party marked a critical moment in the history of the American Revolution as an act of colonial defiance against British rule.\n\nOn 16 December 1773, American colonists marched from the Old South Meeting House to Boston Harbor, where they threw 340 chests of tea owned by the British East India Company into the water, destroying them.\n \nInitially a protest against the tax on tea, levied without representation in the British Parliament, it soon came to be seen as one of the first sparks of the revolution that would engulf America.


You succeed in incapacitating the guard and snatching the piece, but finding your way out takes longer without a guide and arouses suspicion. Paying the guard would have held less risk.
;Instructions

<tabber>
The Boston massacre was a confrontation between a small contingent of British soldiers and a crowd of around 300 revolutionary supporters in which five protestors were killed and six were injured. The Boston government was determined to give the soldiers a fair trial so that there could be no grounds for retaliation from the British. \n\nJohn Adams, despite being a member of the Sons of Liberty and revolutionary supporter, defended the men at trial. The trial resulted in Thomas Preston, the senior British officer present, being acquitted after the jury was convinced he had not ordered his troops to fire. In the trial of his eight other soldiers involved six of them were acquitted while two, Matthew Kilroy and Hugh Montgomery, were found guilty on the offense of manslaughter and sentenced a reduced punishment of a branding of the thumb.

**[Adams' comment] These gunshot marks came from behind. Preston must've stood in front of his men when they fired.
*Soldier's hat
**It seems like this British soldier must have taken quite the blow to the head.
**[Adams' comment] Seems like Kilroy took a nasty blow to the head.
*[Jane] Whitehouse's testimony
**One of the eyewitnesses to the massacre stated that she saw British Captain Preston stand in front of his men.
*Mysterious man
**Jane Whitehouse, a civilian eyewitness, reported that a man who did not look like an officer came behind the soldiers and walked backward and forward, encouraging them to fire. She was positive the man was not British Captain Preston.
*Montgomery's account
**One of the British soldiers involved in the massacre stated that they were grabbed and were directly ordered to fire.
*Kilroy's account
**British soldier Kilroy stated that the soldiers only fired when the order was given.

*'''John Adams:''' [Question 1] ''What evidence proves Preston did not order his men to fire?''
Sharqiyah Bureau
[Present evidence]
*'''John Adams:''' [Answer 1] ''Based on testimony and marks on Preston's coat, it's clear he stood in front at the time. Therefore, he would not have called for them to fire unless he wanted to get shot!''


It is the beginning of the Lunar calendar and we must increase our efforts to assemble the Astrolabe. The Hidden Ones have received information that an Astrolabe piece has just left the city with a Barid (Postal System) courier. Once he reaches the Caravanserai traveling the Silk Road through the Zagros Mountain pass, the courier will give the piece to an unknown agent of the Order of the Ancients and it will be lost to us. You must reach the Caravanserai quickly and obtain the Astrolabe piece before it moves beyond our grasp - go now!
*'''John Adams:''' [Question 2] ''What evidence proves Preston's men did not shoot with malice?''
[Present evidence]
*'''John Adams:''' [Answer 2] ''It's clear from the evidence that Preston's men did not shoot with malice. Kilroy had taken a substantial blow to the head and had large objects thrown at him. Even Carr said he had never seen soldiers bear half as much as those soldiers did.''

===Step 2===
;People of the Revolution
<tabber>
<tabber>
|-|Choice 1=
|-|Caesar Glover=
Caesar was one of hundreds of sailors, White and Black, who helped the Continental Army escape from Brooklyn in 1776, enabling the rebellion to survive. Born in Africa, he was enslaved as a child and brought to North America.<br><br>Somehow, he earned his freedom, and in 1775 he joined the Revolution as part of the Marblehead regiment. This group of seamen manned the boats in the New Jersey and New York campaigns, including the famous crossing of the Delaware River. Black New Englanders like Caesar were among the Continental Army’s first recruits, 150 of whom carried Washington’s troops from Brooklyn Heights to Peck Slip in August 1776. The amateur military, greatly outnumbered, was badly defeated in Long Island. But they were saved by a thick fog, an early historian writing that no one in the region could remember any such weather “within the space of twenty or thirty years\". If not for the skill of mariners like Caesar, military historians agree, no more than half of the decimated rebel army would have escaped.


|-|Choice 2=
|-|Nathan Hale=
Nathan Hale is one of the American Revolution’s most famous spies and one of its earliest martyrs. Having volunteered to stay in New York after the Battle of Long Island in order to pass information to the Revolutionary cause, the 21-year-old Patriot was hanged by the occupying British government on September 22, 1776. This underscored the importance of effective espionage practices for the rebels. <br><br>Alongside George Washington’s spy ring on Long Island, intelligence-gathering was far more commonly done by everyday unsung heroes of the cause. Knowledge is typically passed mouth to mouth, through both formal and informal communication networks. Waitresses overhearing conversation between officers in a tavern passed information on to rebel informants. Slaves moving goods from city to country reported on the British army’s health. Families permitted to cross battlefield lines to visit relatives shared observations in conversation and correspondence.\n


|-|Choice 3=
|-|Alexander Hamilton=
Alexander Hamilton was one of George Washington’s trusted advisers during the American Revolution and the first Secretary of the Treasury of the United States. Born in 1757 in the West Indies, he was orphaned at the age of 11. His cleverness showed early, and his employers pooled their money to send him to university. Hamilton moved to New York in 1773 and began attending King’s College (later Columbia University). By 1774, he was writing pro-rebel articles, and by 1775 he’d joined the volunteer militia to oppose the British. \n \nIn 1776 he formed his own artillery company, becoming a captain, before being appointed as aide-de-camp to Washington in 1777. A skilled military commander, his leadership was decisive in the Battle of Yorktown. After the war Hamilton went on to become a respected statesman, representing New York and the nation in the preservation of the principles of the revolution and formation of the new government.
 
|-|William Howe=
William Howe was the commander in chief of the British Army in North America (1776–78). Despite several military successes, he was unable to destroy the Continental Army and stem the American Revolution.\n \nWilliam Howe had been active in North America during the French and Indian War a few years earlier, where he earned a reputation as one of the army’s most brilliant young generals. He initially captured New York in 1776 when the British defeated the Americans at the Battle of Long Island and later led the campaign to capture Philadelphia. These victories were, however, not enough to defeat Washington's armies, and he resigned in 1778 to return to Britain.
 
|-|Thomas Jefferson=
Thomas Jefferson was a pivotal figure in the American Revolution, acting as a leading intellectual, a political activist, and the primary author of the Declaration of Independence. Throughout the conflict, while he did not fight on the battlefield, he sought to transform the American colonies into a modern republic, advocating for the separation of church and state, the abolition of feudal inheritance laws, and widespread educational reform. As a delegate to the Second Continental Congress in 1776, the 33-year-old Virginian was tasked with drafting the document that justified the colonies’ break from Great Britain, articulating the foundational American ideals of \"Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness\".\n
 
|-|Marquis de Lafayette=
Marquis de Lafayette was a French aristocrat and military officer who played a crucial role in the American Revolution, acting as a vital link between the American colonies and France. Inspired by the American cause of liberty, the 19-year-old defied King Louis XVI and traveled to America in 1777, volunteering to serve without pay. \n \nHe quickly formed a close bond with George Washington and was commissioned as a major general in the Continental Army. Lafayette proved his bravery and skill in battle and was wounded in action. This led him to return to France and lobby for increased military aid, successfully securing French troops and supplies for the colonies. Returning to America in 1781, he led American forces against Lord Cornwallis in Virginia, setting the stage for the decisive American-French victory at the Siege of Yorktown.
 
|-|Francis Lewis=
Francis Lewis was a Welsh-born merchant and patriot who signed the Declaration of Independence and the Articles of Confederation. As a dedicated radical in New York, he served in the Stamp Act Congress and was a member of the Committee of Sixty and the New York Provincial Congress before joining the Continental Congress from 1775 to 1779. <br><br>During the Revolutionary War, Lewis utilized his commercial experience to help secure supplies for the Continental Army, particularly through his work on the Continental Board of Admiralty. His commitment to the patriot cause came at a high personal cost. Following the Battle of Long Island in 1776, British forces destroyed his estate in Queens and imprisoned his wife. While she was later released in a prisoner exchange, the harsh conditions of her captivity severely affected her health, leading to her death in 1779. Devastated by his wife's death, Lewis subsequently retired from politics, leaving Congress in 1779 and retiring completely by 1781.
 
|-|Hercules Mulligan=
Hercules Mulligan was a vital spy for the Continental Army and a dedicated patriot during the American Revolution. Raised in New York City, he was an early member of the Sons of Liberty and a close associate of Alexander Hamilton, whom he mentored and introduced to revolutionary ideals. Working as a successful tailor, Mulligan cultivated relationships with high-ranking British Officers, allowing him to gather crucial intelligence directly from the enemy. Despite the dangers of operating within British-occupied New York, he operated as a confidential correspondent for George Washington, supplying information that helped shape the war's outcome. <br><br>Mulligan is credited with saving Washington’s life on two occasions by revealing plots to capture him. Even after being suspected of spying and briefly arrested, he continued his intelligence work with the help of his enslaved assistant, Cato. Following the war, Washington solidified Mulligan’s reputation as a patriot by having breakfast with him shortly after the British evacuation of New York.
 
|-|Isaac Sears=
Isaac Sears was the public face of the Sons of Liberty in New York City, the second and perhaps most active chapter in the colonies. He was a prosperous merchant, like so many leaders of the underground rebel group. During the mid-1700s, he made fine income as a privateer, hunting the ships of imperial rivals for the British. Only when the Sugar Act brought an end to his trade in the West Indies did the sea captain turn against Britain. During the revolution he was a member of the Committee of Sixty and was involved in raids on British troops and in the destruction of Loyalist property throughout New York City.
 
|-|Anna Strong=
Anna Smith Strong was the only recorded female member of the Culper Spy Ring, a secret network established to gather intelligence for General George Washington in British-occupied New York. Living in Setauket, Long Island, she utilized her position to pass messages while avoiding suspicion, partly because her relatives were Loyalists. <br><br>Strong’s fame stems from the ingenious clothesline code which she used to signal Caleb Brewster, a courier who transported intelligence across the Long Island Sound. When a message was ready to be picked up, she would hang a black petticoat on her clothesline, clearly visible from across the bay. She would add a specific number of white handkerchiefs to indicate which of the six designated coves Brewster should use to meet his contact.
 
|-|George Washington=
George Washington was the commander-in-chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. Tasked with fighting a superior British force, Washington formed the colonial militias into a disciplined fighting force. Despite losing more battles than he won, his resilience, strategic retreats, and crucial victories, such as the final victory at Yorktown, secured American independence. \n \nUnanimously elected, Washington served as president from 1789 to 1797, where he implemented a strong, well-financed national government, including the creation of a national bank. His dedication to civilian control of the military, together with his voluntary retirement after two terms, helped secure the stability of American democracy.

<tabber>
<tabber>
|-|Choice 1=
|-|Birch=
;Passing Judgment
You are at Fraunces Tavern. In 1783, as the war came to an end, a joint British and American commission overseen by Brigadier General Birch convened here to review the claims of Black Loyalist ex-slaves seeking freedom and evacuation with the British Army. Boston King was one of these ex slaves. In this memory he presents his case to the panel to obtain a certificate of freedom.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York and head from City Hall towards Fraunces Tavern.


|-|Choice 2=
;Historical details
In 1783, as the British prepared to evacuate New York at the end of the Revolutionary War, the city became the site of a tense and historic reckoning. During the conflict, British commanders had promised freedom to enslaved people who escaped Patriot owners and joined their lines, and thousands sought refuge in British occupied New York. <br><br>When peace was declared, American officials demanded the return of formerly enslaved people under the terms of the Treaty of Paris. To address the crisis, British authorities convened hearings at Fraunces Tavern, overseen by Brigadier General Samuel Birch. There, formerly enslaved Black Loyalists petitioned to prove they had served the British cause and were entitled to evacuation. These proceedings, later called the Birch trials, required testimony about military service and escape. Those who qualified had their names entered into what became known as the Book of Negroes and were granted passage to Nova Scotia and other parts of the British Empire. <br><br>More than 3,000 ultimately departed New York under British protection. For many, the evacuation marked the beginning of a new and uncertain chapter, but it also represented one of the earliest large scale emancipations in American history, unfolding in the final days of British rule in the city.

This mission took a toll on you - it will take a few days to recover before you are able to find more pieces of the Astrolabe.
*'''British Officer:''' [start] ''Good day, Boston King. I hope you are keeping well in these trying times. These trials are intended to enable us to demonstrate your suitability to receive a Certificate of Freedom. The certificate will give you passage to Nova Scotia and a new life. There are three questions to address. Let us begin.''


</tabber>
Evidence:
*Pay Records
**[Details] I managed to keep hold of my pay records despite the chaos of the war. Hopefully this will help.\n-\nCharles Town, the 1st Day of August, 1782 Received of the Paymaster of His Majesty’s Forces, the sum of Eight Shillings, being one week’s pay for Boston King, a Negro man employed with the troops in military duty and camp service. \nThe said Boston King having come within the British Lines and since served with the Army, is to receive the above allowance, or the equivalent in provisions, clothing, or other necessaries, as available. \nSigned, Deputy Paymaster\n
**[Boston King comment] These are my pay records from the army.
*Letter from Captain Grey
**[Details] I was given this letter from Captain Grey who I served under in the New York Volunteers.\n-\nI do hereby certify that Boston King, a Negro man, having formerly come within the British Lines in South Carolina, hath for some time served with me in the New York Volunteers, and hath conducted himself with fidelity and good behavior. \nGiven under my hand this fifteenth day of October, 1783. \nCaptain Grey, New York Volunteers\n
**[Boston King comment] I was given this letter from Captain Grey.
*A Herbal Remedy
**[Details] Using powdered yarrow root to help cuts and wounds heal was something that my mother taught me. She was so knowledgeable about herbal remedies having learned from the Native Americans in South Carolina. <br><br>Her literacy and love of learning have been a constant inspiration and I hope one day to be able to write an account of my life.
**[Boston King comment] I carried herbal remedies like this throughout the war.
*My British Uniform
**[Details] Though I started out as a servant to the British officers it wasn't long before I found myself in the uniform of the brave New York Volunteers. <br><br>As a former slave, I was often assigned the most dangerous missions. It was in 1781 when I was sent alone to gather reinforcements when my battalion was under siege at Nelson’s Ferry. I narrowly avoided capture and returned to a hero's welcome.
**[Boston King comment] This is my uniform from the New York Volunteer British regiment.
*Dunmore's Proclamation
**[Details] Dunmore's Proclamation promises me freedom in exchange for the service that I have given as a Loyalist.<br><br>I was a young man when Loyalist forces seized Charlestown in May 1780 and I determined to throw myself into the hands of the English. They received me readily, and I began to feel the happiness of liberty. The impact of the Proclamation has been huge, 500 slaves left the day it was made and over 5,000 have since done so.
**[Boston King comment] Dunmore's Proclamation promises me my freedom.
*My Carpenters Tools
**[Details] I was 16 years old when I first apprenticed to a carpenter. He treated me very cruelly, and I was subject to frequent beating whenever a tool was misplaced. I was fortunate that my previous owner heard of my hardships and came to speak to him about my treatment.<br><br>The skills I learned there, no matter how unpleasantly, have enabled me to work for the British and the cause of my own Liberty\n
**[Boston King comment] These are the tools I used when I was a slave.


Mission Completed! You return to the city with another Astrolabe piece. You did well not to let that one escape your grasp! As soon as you have recovered from this mission you should prepare yourself for the next. You can rest fully when the Astrolabe is complete and not before - it is too important.
*'''British Officer:''' [1st question] ''What proof can you bring that you were in His Majesty’s Service or Loyal to the Crown and its officers?''
*'''British Officer:''' [1st answer] ''Very good. Your service in the British Army is ample evidence.''
*'''British Officer:''' [2nd question] ''Have you evidence to confirm your arrival at his Majesty's garrison prior to November, 1782?''
*'''British Officer:''' [2nd answer] ''Yes, that pay record demonstrates when you were serving.''
*'''British Officer:''' [3rd question] ''Can you show that you are not known to be a man of bad behavior?''
*'''British Officer:''' [3rd answer] ''Captain Grey clearly declares you of good character.''


==The Caliph, the Thief, his Wife, and her Baby==
*'''British Officer:''' [Some wrong] ''I think that's just enough evidence to get that certificate.''
Abbasiyah Bureau
*'''British Officer:''' [All correct] ''Congratulations Sir. Your service qualifies you for a Certificate of Freedom.''


A mysterious woman has solicited the Bureau through a confidential note. She says she is a wife among the Caliph's Harem, has recently given him an heir, and is now in terrible trouble. Should we agree to help her, she will give us a piece of the Astrolabe in thanks. Collecting pieces of the device is crucial, whatever the danger - you must enter the Harem, locate the Caliph's wife and find out how we can help her!
;Outcome
*Certificate of Freedom
In September 1783, Boston King was declared free and forever emancipated by order of Sir Guy Carleton. He was permitted to depart with the Black Loyalists for Nova Scotia.

By the summer of 1776, revolutionary forces controlled Manhattan, but the harbor told a different story. Hundreds of British ships filled New York Harbor, carrying tens of thousands of soldiers in the largest amphibious invasion of the eighteenth century. <br><br>General George Washington had cannons dragged into position near here to stop the British ships. On October 17, lookouts spotted HMS Phoenix and HMS Rose pushing up the Hudson. American batteries opened fire, but the ships broke through with little damage. Panic spread across the city, and Washington’s supply and communication lines were suddenly exposed. The Revolution in New York began not with victory, but with uncertainty and fear, as the city became the central battleground of the war.

===Step 3===
;Historical details
<tabber>
Between 1776 and 1783 New York became a center of espionage! The most famous American spy network, known as the Culper Ring, reported directly to George Washington and relied on informants across the region.  British officers were often billeted in private homes, living alongside civilian families, which blurred the line between public war and private life. While American men such as the merchant and tailor Hercules Mulligan played important roles, much of the intelligence gathering depended on women, both free and enslaved, whose daily work allowed them to move through the city with less suspicion. <br><br>Domestic labor placed women in kitchens, parlors, markets, and streets where British officers spoke openly. They could observe troop movements, overhear conversations, and quietly pass along information through coded messages and trusted couriers. In a city filled with checkpoints and patrols, ordinary routines became acts of resistance. In occupied New York, intelligence gathered inside homes and boarding houses helped shape Washington’s decisions and influence the course of the war.

This letter details the problems of getting suitable firewood. Soldiers sent out of the city to source it were ambushed by revolutionary troops. The letter contains a request to requisition additional supplies for the stores as the weather grows colder.<br><br>This is proof of the effectiveness of our current strategy.
*Troop distribution
This is a dispatch detailing the movement of several hundred soldiers from the city to the Caribbean to deal with unrest there. <br><br>The weakening of the defenses in New York could prove essential intelligence for General Washington and his aim of retaking the city.
*Pass to New York
This is an official military pass granting the bearer the ability to leave the city and travel through the checkpoints in the surrounding area. <br><br>With the city under the control of the British Army, all movement of people in and out is carefully controlled - this could be a great help to our spies in the city.

;Historical details
You manage to enter the gardens and hide amongst the bushes beside a broken fountain. You have carefully placed yourself to be able to whisper to the performer. Now there is nothing to do but wait... Unfortunately, you doze off in the heat, next thing you know a gardener has tripped over you and fallen sprawling. What do you do?
In August 1776, nearly 9,000 soldiers evacuated Manhattan in small boats. The Revolution had nearly collapsed. British forces overwhelmed the Continental Army on Long Island in the largest battle of the war. By August 29, George Washington and thousands of soldiers were trapped in Brooklyn, pinned against the East River with the Royal Navy blocking escape. If the army were captured, the rebellion might end before it had truly begun. <br><br>As night fell, a daring plan took shape. Under cover of darkness and aided by a thick fog that rolled in before dawn, soldiers began evacuating across the river in small boats. Experienced mariners from the region, including White, Black, and Native seafarers, quietly ferried troops to Manhattan while British warships sat unaware in the harbor. All night long, men, horses, and supplies crossed the water in near silence. <br><br>By morning, thousands of soldiers had escaped without detection. It was not a battlefield victory, but it was decisive. The survival of Washington’s army ensured that the Revolution would continue, and New York became the setting for one of the war’s most dramatic escapes.

Tell him that you are an engineer, here to fix the fountain.
The Continental Army and Caesar Glover escaped Brooklyn. <br><br>Navigate to the highlighted area on the Manhattan docks without being detected.


The gardener nods approvingly and says it is about time someone came to look at it. He advises you to be quick, since guests will soon be arriving for the contest. That was the perfect excuse!
Steer the ship by drawing a circle on your screen to rotate the wheel. Drag the sail bar up or down to control speed.

Tell him you are a new gardener, here to help him.
On the left of your screen is a detection meter that will begin to fill if you are spotted. <br><br>Avoid detection by the British ships by steering away from their search lights or by hiding in the clouds of fog.


The gardener looks at you unconvinced. He ushers you away because the contest is about to start. By the time you have evaded him the contest is about to begin! Telling him you are an engineer would have been more believable.
;What happens
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [Start] ''Take the utmost care. If the British see us, they will be on us in a moment. We will need both our wits and bravery to make it over. Good luck.''
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [quarterProgress] ''We are fortunate that it is so dark. The British can scarcely discern a man at six yards distance tonight.''

The debate begins and your Qiyan steps forward, looking apprehensive as she stands opposite a girl from the rival school. The assessor asks them both to name an animal from Al-Jahiz's enormous 'Book of Animals' which they identify with and say why.

;Fire Suspects
Whisper that she is like a falcon - graceful and efficient.
In 1783, with the British still in control of New York, Sir Guy Carleton commissioned an investigation into the causes of the devastating fire of 1776. The inquiry brought officers to this very spot you are now standing on to question those present at the time. Speak to people present at the time of the fire, help prepare an investigation, and accuse someone of being the cause.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York that were destroyed by the fire and begin questioning the suspects.


As the Qiyan confidently repeats what you said, adding that she flies swiftly to protect good and resist evil, while honoring the Caliph. The crowd claps enthusiastically and the girl smiles, she seems convinced herself, you did well.
;Historical details
On September 20, 1776, just days after British forces captured New York, a massive fire broke out and spread rapidly across lower Manhattan. Fueled by wooden buildings and strong winds, the flames destroyed nearly one fifth of the city. Churches, homes, warehouses, and vital infrastructure were reduced to ashes. <br><br>As autumn approached, thousands of residents including Loyalists, British soldiers, formerly enslaved people seeking refuge, and civilians caught between loyalties were left homeless. Much of the city became a patchwork of tents and temporary shelters, reshaping life in British occupied New York for the rest of the war. Suspicion quickly followed. British authorities arrested several individuals, accusing revolutionaries of setting the blaze to sabotage the occupation. <br><br>In 1783, just weeks before evacuating the city, Commander in Chief Sir Guy Carleton ordered another investigation. Officials reported possible incendiary evidence and conflicting eyewitness testimony, but no definitive cause was proven. Historians continue to debate whether the fire was accidental or deliberate. The Great Fire of 1776 remains one of the most destructive disasters in New York’s history and a stark reminder that the Revolution unfolded not only in battles, but in a city divided by fear and uncertainty.


|-|Donkey=
;Instructions
Whisper that she is like a donkey - noble and strong.
Objective
You must investigate and decide upon who caused the great fire of New York for the Carleton Commission. Do this by questioning three key suspects.


The Qiyan calmly repeats what you said, adding that she is strong enough to carry the Caliph to the heights of the tallest dome in the city. The crowd claps politely and the girl smiles. However, her rival compares herself to a falcon and that receives an even warmer response.
Talking
The key suspects are: British General William Howe, American General George Washington, and New York fire chief John Baltus Dash.<br><br>Tap on them to ask questions and learn about the fire.


|-|Monkey=
New information
Whisper that she is like a monkey - mischievous and unruly.
Each new piece of information unlocks further lines of questioning.


As you whisper to the girl you realize the Caliph will not want a Qiyan to describe herself as unruly or mischievous, but by then it is too late. As the Qiyan repeats what you said, the audience seems confused by her response. The girl stares at the floor as her rival compares herself to a falcon and receives adulation from the crowd. That did not go well.

===The Music===
Accusing
Now it is time for the musical part of the contest. Your Qiyan performs a beautiful piece of music with obvious skill. However, her rival begins to play a strange new instrument in a performance that is even better. You notice a tiny suspicious wisp of steam or smoke coming from the instrument being played by the Qiyan's rival. What do you do?
When you feel you have enough information to make a conclusion you can accuse one of the suspects of causing the fire by tapping on them and selecting 'Accuse'.


<tabber>
;What happens
|-|Cheating!=
*'''Player:''' ''Tell me about yourself, Mr Dash.''
Whisper to your Qiyan that her rival is cheating and point out the steam.
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''I'm John Baltus Dash, a veteran firefighter. I worked to protect the city during the fire. I managed to protect much of the city from the fire, including St Paul's.''


Your Qiyan stands up in the middle of her rival's performance and accuses her of cheating by using an automatic steam-powered instrument. The rival starts shouting angrily, and as she does the instrument falls to the floor releasing an enormous cloud of steam. The crowd gasps in shock at the revelation and voices its disapproval.
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Howe?''
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''His men often act like drunken louts. I've seen badly attended cook fires that got out of control.''


|-|Fire!=
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Washington?''
Whisper urgently to your Qiyan that her rival's robes seem to have caught fire.
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''I heard that Washington was talking about how he wanted the city to burn down.''


Your Qiyan runs to fetch water from one of the fountains and throws it over her rival, who shouts in shock! The contest dissolves into absolute uproar. As you leave you realize the \u201csmoke\u201d may have actually been steam from an automatic steam-powered instrument which the rival was using to cheat.
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about the buildings that were destroyed?''
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''The British soldiers helped take out some buildings to stop the spread of the fire. Without that I think the other half of the city would be gone.''


|-|Do nothing=
*'''Player:''' ''What do you know about the incendiaries that were found?''
It was probably just a trick of the light.
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''There were incendiaries scattered all over. Whoever did this wanted to start the fire in multiple spots at once.''


The rival finishes playing, and although your Qiyan's performance was undoubtedly masterful, there is no doubt that this strange instrument sounded sweeter still. It is only afterwards that you realize the steam might have indicated that the strange instrument was not being played at all but was automatic and steam-powered.
*'''Player:''' ''How do you explain your hidden stash of valuables?''
</tabber>
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''Of course I knew the fire was coming. The whole place is a tinderbox. Why wouldn't I hide my valuables?''


===Outcome===
<tabber>
|-|All correct answers=
The teacher congratulated you on your superb performance, smiling broadly. Her Qiyan school won the contest and the girl you helped will likely be promoted as a result.


|-|At least 1 wrong answer=
*'''Player:''' ''Tell me about yourself, Mr Howe.''
The teacher was pleased to say that her Qiyan school won the contest, however she was not entirely sure that it was thanks to your efforts. She handed over the piece of the Astrolabe but suggested that the Bureau superiors may wish to consider using another agent for future missions.
*'''William Howe:''' ''I'm William Howe, a British general. I am the commander-in-chief of the British Army in North America in charge of New York.''


|-|All wrong answers=
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Dash?''
The teacher decided to give us the piece as promised, because you did attempt to help, all be it clumsily. She adds that her Qiyan school lost the contest and the girl you attempted to help has been thrown out of school. You cannot help but feel responsible for the girl's fate.
*'''William Howe:''' ''I saw him burying his valuables before the fires even broke out. It's very suspicious, like he knew the fire was coming, but he didn't warn anyone.''


</tabber>
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Washington?''
*'''William Howe:''' ''That man was definitely up to something. He had all the bells removed from the city. It meant that when the fire broke out, my men weren't alerted until later. I think he planned it!''


Mission completed! The teacher comes to the Bureau to give us her piece of the Astrolabe, it looks as though you did enough to convince her! You have another piece of the puzzle, but not all of them. You cannot afford to diminish your efforts, you must continue to hunt the Astrolabe pieces down.
*'''Player:''' ''What do you know about the badly attended cook fires?''
*'''William Howe:''' ''My men's training is exceptional, and they are the finest infantry in the world. Sometimes they like to drink and rough house. It's not caused any real issues before.''


==The Quick and the Dead==
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about the plundering that took place?''
Karkh Bureau
*'''William Howe:''' ''That's a serious accusation. I sincerely hope you have substantial evidence of my men doing such a thing. Before you continue to repeat those rumors.''


The Bureau has heard that an agent from the Order of the Ancients has managed to locate and steal a piece of the Astrolabe. While attempting to escape, the enemy agent was injured and is now in the Bimaristan (hospital). You must make your way into the hospital and retrieve the piece of Astrolabe before it gets passed on to another member of the Order of the Ancients.

===The Agent===
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Dash?''
You make your way to the hospital and it does not take you long to find the room the enemy agent was taken to. But there is a nurse outside the room who stops you from entering and asks who you are. What do you say?
*'''George Washington:''' ''All the water buckets had their handles cut off. Shoddy handling and protecting of his equipment. What is he playing at?''

Tell them you are related to the injured man, here to comfort him.


The nurse's eyes are full of sympathy as she explains that the injured man has unfortunately passed away and been taken to another part of the hospital to be prepared for burial. You know where to go next, that was the perfect excuse.
*'''Player:''' ''How do you feel about the fire?''
*'''George Washington:''' ''I don't deny that I am pleased the city has burnt down. The loyalists have done us a great service; however, it was not me that did it.''

Tell them you are a physician, here to tend to the injured man.
*'''George Washington:''' ''Yes, I had the bells moved to be melted down into cannons. But that was planned months ago; it has nothing to do with the fires.''


The nurse looks at you skeptically, mutters that she does not recognize you, then tells you that the injured man unfortunately died and has been taken away for burial rites. It's clear that the nurse doubts you and it will not be long before she tells someone. Telling her you were family would have been more straightforward.
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about the buildings that were destroyed?''
*'''George Washington:''' ''Those loyalists were smashing perfectly good houses to bits. The flames weren't anywhere near them!''


|-|Push Past=
;Outcome
You don't have time for this, just push past her.
*Accused: John Baltus Dash
You have accused the Fire Chief of starting the fire. He buried his own valuables before the fire broke out, suggesting he knew what was coming, and, despite being a known loyalist, he didn't inform the British. His behavior is suspicious, but the evidence is circumstantial and not conclusive.
*Accused: General William Howe
You have accused the British forces of causing the fire, either through malice or incompetence. While British troops were seen looting buildings and numerous Revolutionary supporters were later arrested, the evidence against them remains circumstantial and inconclusive.
*Accused: General George Washington
You have accused the Revolutionary forces of being involved in deliberately starting the fire. General Washington's outspoken desire to deny the British the city, the presence of unexploded incendiaries, and the removal of church bells by American soldiers all point to planned sabotage - but the evidence remains circumstantial and inconclusive.


As you push past her colleague rushes over, demanding that you apologize and telling you that the injured man has passed away so he will not be here anyway. You leave having drawn many suspicious looks. Using the nurse's sympathy would have been a better idea.

With battles against British forces imminent and gunpowder supplies running low, work with Francis Lewis to plot a safe route.<br><br>Enter the docks of revolutionary era New York to begin planning the shipping route.<br><br>This memory has been created in partnership with the Welsh Government.


===The Burial Rite===
;Historical details
You arrive outside a second room to find a nervous looking student, who asks if you are there to supervise the burial ritual for the deceased. You reassure the student that that is precisely why you are there and enter the room with him. Inside is a cloth, a bowl of water, the enemy agent's body, and a small pile of his belongings. The student asks what he should do?
The Revolution was almost lost, not with a grand battle or cunning act of espionage, but with a shortage of supplies. When George Washington took command in 1775, he discovered the evolutionary army had a critical shortage of supplies. The shortages included food, clothing, and weaponry, however the most critical was with Gunpowder. With only 38 barrels of gunpowder, equivalent to just nine rounds per soldier, in the stores they were almost unable to fight the British. <br><br>America lacked the natural deposits of saltpeter that was needed to create their own and as a result they were reliant on imports, largely from their allies in France. These supplies were largely shipped across the Atlantic then via French colonies in the Caribbean. These routes sought to avoid the British blockades and seizures, a process that required a deep understanding of international shipping. <br><br>The newly formed American army turned to people like Francis Lewis, successful merchants who has taken up the patriot cause despite the risks to both their life and fortunes. This approach saw moderate success and led to several crucial clandestine shipments reaching America in 1777, supplies that enabled the army to engage in some of the most important early battles.

|-|Odd=
Objective
Tell him to wash and then wrap the body an odd number of times.
Help Captain Francis Lewis plan routes to move supplies from the Caribbean. These supplies that are critical to the Revolution.


The student nods and performs the burial ritual faultlessly. He tells you he will go and inform the family they can collect the body. With the student gone you are free to look through the enemy's belongings, but you may not have long until he returns.
Planning your route
To set your route, tap the Traverse board on the left of the table to input a direction.<br><br>Your ship will go in that direction until it hits a wall or obstacle.\nYou have a maximum of six inputs per voyage, so plan carefully.


|-|Even=
Wind currents and ships
Tell him to wash and then wrap the body an even number of times.
Wind currents push your ship without using up an input, so take advantage of them to travel further.<br><br>Be careful to avoid British ships along your journey.


The student looks at you suspiciously and says he thinks that it is supposed to be an odd number. He finishes the ritual and leaves the room. You hurry to look through the agent's belongings as it's almost certain that the student now knows that you are not who you said you were.
Hint
If you need a hint tap the icon to see a possible route.


|-|Admonish=
Setting sail
Reprimand the student for not remembering the ritual himself.
Once you're happy with your route, tap the tick button to start the voyage, you can press the reset icon to remove your inputs.


You demand that if the student cannot remember the ritual, he should leave. Backing out of the room, he says the body should be washed and wrapped an odd number of times, he just wanted to check. You frantically look through the enemy agent's belongings, you probably only have seconds until someone comes to investigate the raised voices.

*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Start] ''Let me lend my expertise to help plot a route for the French supplies that the Revolution needs. Use the circular Traverse board on the left of the table to set a course.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 1 start] ''First we will need to work out a path for the goods from the Caribbean; this part should be simple enough. The French colonies there can provide us with immense amounts of gunpowder and other supplies. The main things to be aware of will be to work out the best route through the rocks.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 1 end] ''Well done; that will be the perfect route for the ship. There are four more stages to plot. The French support for the war is what allows us to bring these supplies from the Caribbean.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 2 start] ''The next step of the journey will require you to plot a route through the Windward Passage. You will need to be careful of both the rocks and the weather.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 2 end] ''That will work well by the look of it. You will need to plot three more steps. In the next step of the journey, we will need to move the goods up the Gulf Stream and up the coast.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 3 start] ''I know the risks of supporting the Revolution, but I cannot stand by when the Stamp Act is so unjust. You will need to be mindful of not just the rocks but British ships that will seize the cargo.''

*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 4 end] ''That's an excellent solution. Only one more step left now. With the last step of the journey, you'll need to move the supplies into a safe harbor in America.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 5 start] ''American forces are desperate for these supplies, their future depends on our success. You will need to contend with more British ships the closer you get to the destination. Good luck.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 5 end] ''Excellent work. That route will take the supplies used where they are needed.''


===The Physician===
;Outcome
You search the agent's belongings in vain - the piece of Astrolabe is not there! Then the door opens and a physician enters examining the piece of the Astrolabe you are searching for. He appears to be a Dhimmi (non-Muslim). You tell him you are a scholar of astronomy and this recently deceased man had an important item of yours which you have come to retrieve. The physician looks skeptical and asks you to prove you are a scholar. He asks what is the shape of the Earth?
*Supplies delivered safely!
Following your course, the ship delivered supplies to our Revolutionary forces in America. <br><br>With General Washington's supplies running dangerously low due to British blockades, this delivery could prove vital to the ongoing fight. Well done.

;Liberty Raised
In 1771, patriots gathered here, overlooking City Hall, to erect Liberty Poles in defiance of British rule. Tensions with the occupying forces were high. Alongside Sons of Liberty member Isaac Sears, design and raise a pole in protest at British occupation.<br><br>Enter the revolutionary era New York City Hall to begin raising a liberty pole.


|-|Accuse=
;Historical details
Demand to know what this man is doing working in the hospital as a non-Muslim.
After Parliament repealed the Stamp Act, New Yorkers marked the moment by raising what became known as a liberty pole on the Common, near where British soldiers drilled. \nIn the 1760s, new British taxes and trade regulations had sparked fierce protests, especially among maritime workers and laborers who felt the economic strain most directly. The streets were a battleground.<br><br>The tall white pine mast, timber normally reserved for Royal Navy ships, rose above the barracks with a flag proclaiming liberty. It was meant to provoke. British troops and Loyalists repeatedly cut the pole down, and each time supporters of the Patriot cause raised another. <br><br> The conflict escalated into street fighting known as the Battle of Golden Hill, often described as the first bloodshed of the Revolution in New York. During the later British occupation, liberty poles continued to appear as symbols of resistance. Some were reinforced with metal bands or greased to prevent soldiers from climbing them. These towering masts were more than protest signs. They were bold declarations that even under imperial authority, many New Yorkers refused to surrender the idea of self government.


The physician looks angry and answers that there are many Dhimmis working in the hospital, the Caliph has need of their expertise. He recognizes that he lacks authority and thrusts the piece of Astrolabe at you before storming off. Perhaps answering that you know the Earth to be round might have been a more scholarly move.

;Nine Men's Morris
1779 New York, occupied by the British, was torn apart by war, its streets shared uneasily by loyalists, patriots, and those caught somewhere in between. Take a moment's respite from the simmering tensions to sit here at City Hall Park, and play Nine Men's Morris with people with differing opinions on the war.<br><br>Enter the streets and taverns of revolutionary era New York to find a game.


==Dine Like a Prince==
;Historical details
Sharqiyah Bureau
Nine Men’s Morris was a popular strategy game during the American Revolution and was played by soldiers and civilians alike. Boards were scratched into stone tavern tables, barrack walls, and public spaces across New York. Taverns and coffee houses were central gathering places where people shared news, argued politics, and passed the time. The rules of the game were simple: place your pieces carefully, block your opponent, and trap them until they could no longer move. But the strategy required patience and calculation. <br><br>In the 1770s, New Yorkers were engaged in a far more dangerous contest. Debates over Parliament’s taxes and British authority filled these same public spaces. When talk turned to independence, the city divided. Some residents still considered themselves British and supported the Crown. Others were uncertain, worried about challenging the world’s most powerful empire. Many favored resistance but disagreed about whether armed conflict was the answer. Class, occupation, faith, and neighborhood shaped opinion, and choosing a side carried real risk. Like Nine Men’s Morris, the struggle for New York required careful moves. One wrong decision could leave you exposed in a city where politics, loyalty, and survival were deeply intertwined.


The Bureau has received information that the Wali Al Ahd (Heir apparent) has knowledge of the whereabouts of another piece of the Astrolabe. He is holding a dinner party this evening. You must attend to find out more. The Bureau has already managed to obtain an invitation for you, just make sure you blend in.
;Instructions
Objective
As a keen Nine Men's Morris player, you must play against an opponent of your choosing. <br><br>Playing against different people will let you learn about life in New York during the occupation.


;Intel needed
Placement
*[[Database: Abbasid Revolution]]
You and your opponent will take turns placing a man anywhere on the board. You both have a total of nine men each.

===The Food===
Mills
Hours later, you are in the Heir apparent's quarters. You cunningly ensure that you are sat next to the Heir apparent. He is saying that he feels the Umayyads are getting too bold when a huge tray of food is brought for everyone to share. The servant moves to place it on a low table. What will you do?
If a player creates a 'mill', by placing three of their men in a straight, non-diagonal row, they can remove one of their opponent's men that are not already in a mill. Mills can be made in any phase so watch where your opponent is placing their men and be sure to block any mills; otherwise, your men will be removed.


<tabber>
Movement
|-|Speak to the Wali Al Ahd and wait patiently for the food=
Once all pieces have been placed, players can move them one at a time by tapping on the piece they wish to move and shifting it into an adjacent empty space.
Perhaps this might show restraint and good manners.


You agree with the Heir apparent about the Umayyads and wait patiently for the servant to place the food down. The other guests around you do the same and the Heir apparent smiles at you. You have done well so far.
Flying
Once a player is down to three men, they can fly by moving their man to any empty space on the board.


|-|Take some food before the servant puts the platter down=
Victory / defeat
Perhaps this might show how eager you are to enjoy the food.
Once a player is down to two men or unable to move, the other player wins.


Your hand almost knocks the platter out of the servant's hands. You hear one of the guests grumpily call you a "pot-picker" and can see the Heir apparent frowning at you. You should have waited for the servant to put the platter down.
;What happens
Easy (Loyalist):
*'''Charles Inglis:''' [start] ''Good day to you. Nice to have a game with a new face.''
*'''Charles Inglis:''' [placed] ''You see my problem with the Revolution is not its aim so much as the method. Armed conflict harms everyone.''
*'''Charles Inglis:''' [1st taken] ''It is true; living in the city is not easy. The navy does its best, but the price of food and fuel is beyond the pale.''
*'''Charles Inglis:''' [2nd taken/his] ''That is some sagacity you are showing.''
*'''Charles Inglis:''' [2nd taken/yours] ''It looks like I am to make a cat's paw of you.''
*'''Charles Inglis:''' [3rd taken] ''It can scarce be argued that letting a country slide into mob rule is anything other than terrible. Am I right?''
*'''Charles Inglis:''' [4th taken] ''It is because of moments like this that my fondest hope is that we will put this behind us and act as one people again.''
*'''Charles Inglis:''' [end] ''Well played.''


|-|Lick your fingers before taking some food=
Medium (neutral):
Perhaps this might show how delicious you expect the food to be.
*'''Hector de Crevecoeur:''' [start] ''How do you do? Shall we play a game and test our wits?''
*'''Hector de Crevecoeur:''' [placed] ''Freedom is something welcome if given, but I doubt it can be taken.''
*'''Hector de Crevecoeur:''' [1st taken] ''People forget that we have a great country; why risk that?''
*'''Hector de Crevecoeur:''' [2nd taken/his] ''Ah, you rascal. Well played indeed.''
*'''Hector de Crevecoeur:''' [2nd taken/yours] ''It looks like I've caught a weasel asleep!''
*'''Hector de Crevecoeur:''' [3rd taken] ''We need to have suitable caution when facing the most powerful military in the world.''
*'''Hector de Crevecoeur:''' [4th taken] ''I fear mostly for the common man. What chance does he have in all this?''
*'''Hector de Crevecoeur:''' [end] ''Well played.''


You lick your fingers ostentatiously and take some food. Several of the guests make loud noises of disgust and the Heir apparent frowns. That was a big mistake, it would have been better to just wait patiently.
Hard (Rebel):
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [start] ''Fancy a game do you, chum?''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [placed] ''Washington and his forces are a-coming to take the city. Mark me they will march down Broadstreet soon.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [1st taken] ''Aye, it started with the tea sure enough but it's about Liberty, a man's right to make his own way without foreign interference.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [2nd taken/his] ''Don't try to put the squeeze on me, buddy. I don't squeeze easily.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [2nd taken/yours] ''Now don't you be calling me a chiseler, this is naught but skill.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [3rd taken] ''Of course I fear arrest. I ain't no ninny. They round up fellows for the slightest suspicion these days and they have a terrible time of it.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [4th taken] ''Once the war is one ‘twill be a fairer place for all. Just you wait.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [end] ''Well played.''

;Outcome
*You lost!
Despite your best efforts, you've lost this game. Why not try again or face off against one of the other people from the city?
*It's a tie!
You and your opponent were evenly matched. Why not try again or face off against one of the other people from the city?
*You won!
Quick wit and smart strategy were needed to win the game. Why not try against one of the other people from the city?


===The Information===
;Log
The dinner party is going well, you notice that some of the other guests are sneaking alcohol into their cups when they think the Wali Al Ahd cannot see. The Heir apparent appears relaxed and mentions that he found a piece of some sort of fascinating astrological device while exploring Samarra recently. When you ask him where the piece is now he changes the subject. How will you convince him to tell you where the piece is?
Taking a moment's respite from the simmering tensions in the city I sat and played Nine Men's Morris with several people with differing opinions on the war.


<tabber>
|-|Press=
|-|One Thousand and One Nights=
;Printing Pressure
Start telling the Heir apparent a gripping story, then say you will only finish it if he tells you where the Astrolabe piece is.
You are standing on Hanover Square where printers used to work in the many buildings around this area. In 1775 tensions between Loyalists and Patriots were running high.  Printers were publishing the latest news arriving into the city on the packet ships. Take to the printing press, assemble different articles, and print your newspaper.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York and head towards the Hanover Square print shop.


You tell an exciting story and, inspired by the One Thousand and One Nights, pause on a cliffhanger. The Heir apparent is desperate to hear what happens next and you insist on hearing about the astrological device in exchange. Laughing he says there is not much to tell and that the Astrolabe piece is inside a lustreware jar in the next room. That worked brilliantly! At the end of the party you slip silently into the next room.
;Historical details
By the mid eighteenth century, New York had become the communications capital of colonial America. With a regular packet ship connection to England, news from Europe arrived here first and spread outward to other colonies. At Hanover Square near the East River waterfront, merchants, sailors, and printers gathered to exchange information that shaped public opinion. <br><br>During the imperial crisis after 1763, printers played a powerful role in the growing debate over Britain’s authority. One of the most controversial was James Rivington. In 1773 he launched the New York Gazette, and its outspoken Loyalist tone won support from British officials while angering revolutionaries. In 1775 a Patriot mob destroyed his printshop and forced him to flee to London. <br><br>When British forces captured New York in 1777, Rivington returned as the King’s official printer, publishing newspapers that defended royal rule. Yet the story did not end there. Evidence later suggested that he secretly supplied information to George Washington’s spy network. In a city divided by war, the press became its own battlefield, and loyalty was often far more complicated than it first appeared.


|-|Alcohol=
;Instructions
Perhaps it might loosen the Heir apparent's tongue if you offer him some alcohol.
Objective
Alongside James Parker, a printer in occupied New York, you must use the printing press to create a newspaper. <br><br>The articles are politically varied and what you choose will determine your future.


The Heir apparent looks insulted and refuses the alcohol, saying that while some here might flout Islamic Law, he will certainly not partake. When he irritatedly turns away from you the guest next to you winks at your bold offering and lets you know that he has seen what you seek; the Astrolabe piece is in a lustreware jar in the next room. You make your exit, ignored by an offended Heir apparent, and slip silently into the next room.
Selecting Content
Tap the glowing areas of the printing press to select articles, cartoons, and the look of your newspaper.


|-|Threaten=
Loyalist or Patriot
It might be possible to use intimidation to get the information.
Each choice affects how you're perceived in New York, and beyond, based on what you choose to print.


You lean sideways and whisper to the Heir apparent that there will be painful trouble for him if he does not tell you where the piece is. The Wali Al Ahd looks frightened, quietly replies that the piece is in the next room inside a lustreware jar. As soon as you exit you hear the Heir apparent shouting for the guards! You only have moments to find the Astrolabe piece.
Printing the Paper
</tabber>
Once all the content has been chosen, tap on the highlighted lever to start the printing process.


===The Jar===
;What happens
You enter the next room; you only have moments to identify the lustreware jar and take the Astrolabe piece. There are three jars dotted around this room - which do you choose?
*'''James Parker:''' [Start] ''Remember, you will need to add content to the five sections of the printing area.''
*'''James Parker:''' [FirstArticle] ''There are stories from every corner of the world. What would appeal to the readers?''
*'''James Parker:''' [FirstCartoon] ''The city is divided between Loyalist and Patriot supporters; I don't think I'll be able to appeal to everybody.''
*'''James Parker:''' [AllComponents] ''To print the paper follow my instructions and use the parts of the press as I show you.''
*'''James Parker:''' [Draft] ''Time to get this printed.''

This jar has a gorgeous metallic sheen to it; it stands on a shelf.


Yes! The Astrolabe piece is inside, you take it gently out of the jar and silently slip out through the window. Hopefully the Heir apparent will not realize that you were the culprit, but even if he does - you will be long gone.

Cartoons:
*The American rattlesnake presenting Monsieur his ally a dish of frogs, London 1782
**This cartoon shows an American rattlesnake offering a basket of frogs to a French socialite. It mocks their reliance on each other and encourages Britain to oppose them both.
*The British Lion Engaging Four Powers, London 1782
**This cartoon shows Britain (depicted as a lion) fighting a coalition of Americans (a snake), Duch (a pug dog), Spanish (a spaniel), and French (a cockerel). The triumphant tone mocks the nations who sought to oppose Britain.
*The horse America, throwing his master, London, 1779
**This cartoon shows America as a wild horse violently throwing off its British rider. It  symbolizes the colonies rebelling against and rejecting British control during the Revolutionary War.
*Liberty Triumphant or the Downfall of Oppression, Boston 1774
**This cartoon shows the British Tea Tax as a plot by the Devil to destroy colonial liberty, while American colonists nobly defend their rights. It highlights the mounting tensions that lead to the Revolutionary War.
*Miss Carolina Sulivan - one of the obstinate daughters of America, London 1776
**This cartoon shows Sullivan's Island, portrayed as a head-and-shoulders portrait of a woman who looks like a leading British politician William Pitt. It mocks the British after the successful defense of the island by the Revolutionary forces.
*The political cartoon for the year 1775, London
**This cartoon shows King George III, depicted as overwhelmed and failing to control the rebellious American colonies. It highlights British anxiety and criticism of royal leadership at the outbreak of war.
*A Society of Patriotic Ladies at Edenton, North Carolina, London 1775
**This cartoon shows a group of colonial women singing a promise not to buy or use East India Company tea or English-made cloth. Its depiction mocks the American colonists as ugly, foolish, and misguided
*The Tea-Tax-Tempest, or Old Time with his Magick Lanthern
**This cartoon satirizes the causes and unfolding chaos of the American Revolution. It depicts Father Time, who uses an 18th-century projection lantern to cast a vision of the American Revolution. At the center of the projection is a teapot bursting into flames while a rooster (representing France) fans the flames, symbolizing French interference and their alliance with the American colonies. Alongside the screen Europe, Asia, Africa, and America are depicted as women watching this unfold.
*The Repeal: Or the Funeral Procession of Miss America-Stamp, 1766
**This cartoon shows politicians marching a child's coffin that represents the Stamp Act to a vault. It celebrates the restoration of trade and mocks the act's supporters.
*The Statue, London, 1766

;Outcome
This beautiful porcelain jar might be Chinese; it stands on a table.
*Printing pressure
[LOYALIST] Your pro-British articles will find favor with some in New York, but should the British be defeated, expect trouble.
[REVOLUTIONARY] You've backed the Revolutionary cause with your published articles, winning favor with some in New York - as long as you can avoid being shut down or forced out of the city.


The piece is not inside; you chose the wrong jar! Panicking, you fumble with the other jars, dropping one on the floor where it smashes. You finally find the piece inside the golden glazed jar.

|-|Statue=
;Tearing down the King
The statue is gone now, but in 1776, revolutionary supporters gathered here on the Bowling Green, at the foot of the British-controlled fort, around a statue of King George. General Washington did one of the first readings of the Declaration of Independence here. Join the riot alongside Issac Sears and throw ropes onto the statue of King George to topple it.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York and head towards Bowling green.


===Outcome===
;Historical details
<tabber>
On July 9, 1776, crowds gathered in what is now City Hall Park to hear the Declaration of Independence read aloud to Washington’s troops and the public. With those words, the colonies renounced their allegiance to King George III and declared themselves free states. The news echoed across a city already on edge, as British warships filled the harbor and redcoats stood in nearby barracks.<br><br>That evening, energized by the declaration, a group of sailors and laborers marched down Broadway to Bowling Green, just outside Fort George, the center of British power in New York. Inside the iron fence stood a towering gilded statue of King George III, erected only a few years earlier as a symbol of imperial authority. By torchlight, the crowd pulled the 4,000 pound lead statue from its pedestal and broke it apart while onlookers cheered. <br><br>The fragments were later sent to Connecticut, where much of the metal was melted down and recast into bullets for the Continental Army. In a single night, a royal monument became ammunition, and the Revolution in New York moved from bold words to visible defiance in the streets.

;Instructions
You may have spoiled the Wali Al Ahd's dinner party, but at least you were not arrested. Perhaps next time you could ensure that things go according to plan.
Objective
Rioters toppled the statue of King George at the Bowling Green.<br><br>Throw ropes onto the statue to pull it down.


|-|All wrong answers=
Ropes
The guards and the Wali Al Ahd will surely be on the lookout for you now, it may be necessary to keep a low profile for a while.
Tap and hold on the pile of ropes, then swipe toward the statue to throw and attach them.

Mission Completed! You managed to find and take another piece of the Astrolabe, right under the Heir apparent's nose. You did well. You have collected another piece of the Astrolabe! As soon as you are ready, you can secure the next piece.
Topple
Once three ropes are attached to the statue, rapidly tap the screen when prompted to topple it.

*'''Isaac Sears:''' [Start] ''Right, chaps, you heard him; we have broken free of the tyranny of the King.''
*'''Isaac Sears:''' [FirstRope] ''Right, chaps, we'll need two more ropes to topple him.''
*'''Isaac Sears:''' [AllRopes] ''That should do it. Now pull with all your might, patriots!''

The Bureau has received information that one of the Astrolabe pieces is in the possession of an expert in navigation at the House of Wisdom. Even if you're able to enter the building it is unlikely that he will easily part with such a treasure. Go there and retrieve it without fail.
;Outcome
*Statue Toppled
The statue of King George has been toppled! The conviction of New York to oppose the occupation by the British forces and resist their tyranny has been made clear to all.

===Bad Timing===
|-|Turtle=
As you are hurrying towards the doors of the House of Wisdom you are stopped by a passing guard patrol. One of the guards catches hold of you, says he recognizes you and believes you might be wanted for a crime. When you deny this, the guard looks up at the House of Wisdom and asks what you are doing here, and what is in your bag. What do you say?
;The Turtle
In 1776, with American forces in control of New York, Sergeant Lee launched David Bushnell's newly invented Turtle submersible along this bank overlooking the East River. Pilot it undetected beneath the Royal Navy ships, in an attempt to sink the British flagship.<br><br>Enter the docks of revolutionary era New York and head to the Turtle launch location.


<tabber>
;Historical details
|-|Book=
In 1775, inventor David Bushnell created a remarkable new weapon that looked more like a wooden barrel than a machine of war. Called the Turtle, it is considered the world’s first military submarine. Powered by hand and foot, the one person vessel included ballast pumps to control depth, a compass, a depth gauge, and an early screw propeller. Bushnell designed it to carry an explosive charge that could be attached to the hull of a British warship, hoping to disrupt the blockade tightening around New York. <br><br>When Bushnell fell ill, the mission fell to a young volunteer, Ezra Lee. In September 1776, after the British captured the city, Washington approved an attack on General William Howe’s flagship, the 64 gun HMS Eagle. Under cover of darkness, Lee pedaled from the Battery toward the massive warship and attempted to drill into its hull to secure the explosive. A metal plate prevented him from attaching the charge, and as he surfaced, British guards began to stir. Lee released the timed device and escaped. The explosion caused little damage, but the attempt was groundbreaking. <br><br>Though the Turtle saw limited use before being lost later that year, it marked the beginning of underwater warfare and showcased American ingenuity in desperate times.
Tell him you are delivering a book for translation by the scholars.


The guard nods his head and mutters that perhaps he might have been wrong about recognizing you. The guard patrol moves on and you are free to walk confidently into the House of Wisdom through the front door.
;Instructions
Objective
Take on the role of Sergeant Lee and navigate the Turtle submersible through the Royal Navy blockade to the British flagship, the HMS Eagle.


|-|Distraction=
Entering
Cause a distraction and run.
To start, approach the Turtle and tap on it to board.


You slip from the guard's grasp and dash away in a full sprint. The entire patrol gives chase and they follow you for a surprisingly long way! By the time you make it back to the House of Wisdom it is late, you can only hope the scholars are still inside. Telling the guard you were delivering a book would have saved you time and energy.
Movement
Tap the highlighted levers to access the controls. You can control the direction and propulsion with the slider.


|-|Medicine=
Navigation
Tell him you are here to pick up medicine for your sick father.
Use the map to track your position and the British ships.


The guard's eyes narrow as he suggests that the Bimaristan (Hospital) would be a better place to find medicine. He shouts for help and you are forced to run off and enter the House of Wisdom through a window. The House of Wisdom deals in knowledge, not medicine. This is not a great start to the mission.
Detection and hazards
</tabber>
Be careful to avoid hazards such as rocks and anchors from the British ships. You can check for ships and rocks on your map.


===The Scholar===
The Bomb
Amongst the books and papers of the House of Wisdom, you find a scholar looking at astrological writings and star charts. He matches the description of the scholar you are looking for. You strike up a conversation and he explains that an Astrolabe indicates the position of the stars from a certain location. Smiling to himself, he asks where you should head if you needed to find a Ziggurat to use an Astrolabe.
When you reach the British flagship, tap on the highlighted handle to activate the drill and attempt to attach the bomb.


<tabber>
;What happens
|-|Dur-Kurigalzu=
*'''Designer:''' [start] ''Greetings, Sergeant. Board the submersible when you are ready to start your mission. The weather is good, but you will need to rely on your compass and map. Good luck!''
The old fortress of Kurigalzu.


You realize that you would be in the Ziggurat or terraced compound made of receding levels that served as a temples at Dur-Kurigalzu. He smiles at your answer, congratulating you on your quick wits and understanding of Baghdad's history.
*'''Pilot:''' [start] ''I'm glad I've got a little light from the fungi. Without that, it would be awfully dark down here.''
*'''Pilot:''' [quarter] ''Once I've sunk the British flagship, we’ll be striking a blow at the British and raising morale. I've just got to avoid detection.''
*'''Pilot:''' [half] ''I don't think I'll ever get used to these controls. Bushnell may be a genius, but this is not exactly simple.''
*'''Pilot:''' [three quarters] ''Almost there now, not much further to go.''
*'''Pilot:''' [Flagship] ''There is their flagship! Now to attach the bomb with the right hand lever.''
*'''Pilot:''' [bomb] ''Darn it all. I've succeeded in getting here but the bomb won't affix!''


|-|Zubaydah=
;Outcome
Go to the Tomb of Zubaydah bint Ja'far.
*Mission Failed!
**Collided with hazard
The Turtle struck a hazard underwater, forcing you to abandon the mission.<br><br>Despite the ingenuity of the newly created submersible, the controls were undeniably difficult to use.
**Alerted the British
The turtle got too close to the British ships, alerting them of your presence.<br><br>Despite the ingenuity of the newly created submersible, the controls were undeniably difficult to use.
**Left mission area
You abandoned the mission.
**Failed to plant bomb
Despite your best efforts, you failed to plant a bomb.


You suggest that it would be the Tomb of Zubaydah. He shakes his head and explains that the Dur-Kurigalzu ruins are those of an ancient Ziggurat, terraced compounds made of receding levels that served as temples. You hope your lack of insight hasn't hurt your chances of convincing him to give you the piece.
*Mission Succeeded!
**Target reached
You successfully navigated the hazards in the East River and reached the Flagship undetected.<br><br>However, the bomb failed to affix, you had no choice but to deploy it and abandon the mission.


|-|Seleucia=
;Log
