During the early 16th century, the [[Mentor]] of the [[Italian Assassins]], [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]], could send his apprentices to [[Templars|Templar]]-controlled cities.

Templar control will always gradually increase, requiring Ezio to fulfill occasional contracts to maintain control of the city.  


After a city is reclaimed by the Assassins, it will contain new contracts to improve daily income and recruit new assassins. Note that contracts must be completely regularly to maintain the Assassin's control in the city, should the control be too low, Templars will try to retake the city and you will have to complete a contract named defending the city in order to gain back its full access. <ref name="Assassin's Creed: Revelations"/>

The Mediterranean Defense game.

Mediterranean Defense is a minigame in Assassin's Creed: Revelations, in which Ezio Auditore da Firenze sends apprentices to fulfill contracts in cities around Constantinople during the Renaissance.[1]

Gameplay

The Mediterranean Defense minigame consists of thirteen cities, each having a certain ratio of Templar and Assassin control. Contracts can be fulfilled to decrease Templar control or reclaim the city for the Assassins. Once a city is liberated from Templar control, it will provide regular money, XP, and ingredient rewards. Apprentices can fulfill further contracts to improve daily income, recruit new assassins, and add new bomb ingredients for purchase at Piri Reis. Templar control will always gradually increase, requiring Ezio to fulfill occasional contracts to maintain control of the city.

Apprentices can be permanently stationed in the city. This will decrease the rate at which Templar control grows, increase the maximum ratio of Assassin control in that city (depending on their level), provide regular XP rewards to the stationed assassins, and free slots to recruit new assassins. Stationed assassins are no longer available for other parts of the game, though they can be dispatched to contracts within their own city (except the first) or recalled.

If Assassin control in a reclaimed city falls to low, the Templars will attempt to retake it. Assassin apprentices must fulfill a new Defending the City contract to regain access to the city.

Cities

The cities to which Ezio can send his recruits are:
