Well the old Syrian sword might have been better under the crusade, its thicker more massive and heavier, thats good against men in chain mail and plates, since you can bend the plate make it impossible for a knight to move, or you can hit the chain mail hard enough for it to break, and if not the weapon is heavy enough for the enemy to get a wound anyway. | |||

This sword looks sickk
Yeah, it's pretty awesome. (: I feel like a bit of an idiot, but I'm not sure how to change the title of the page itself from "... Altair" to "... Altaïr." Also, should we really keep the sword stats section if there is an image showing the same information? --Aftyn 09:32, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

"Wrong Sword"
I find it very funny that Altaïr's sword in AC 2 is actually the 3rd last sword Altaïr is rewarded with in AC 1. The 2nd last sword he gets is the same sword only that the handle is of a blank metal and not brown wood. The last and best sword Altaïr gets in AC 1 is the "Old Syrian Sword" one of the first you can buy in AC2.
What could cause the blade change? Well i've given it some thoughts:
Well the old Syrian sword might have been better under the crusade, its thicker more massive and heavier, thats good against men in chain mail and plates, since you can bend the plate make it impossible for a knight to move, or you can hit the chain mail hard enough for it to break, and if not the weapon is heavy enough for the enemy to get a wound anyway.

Any way my point is, When fighting light equipped enemies its better with a thinner faster and sharp sword, and that might be the reason for a weapon change.
Summary:
Crusades: Fighting soldiers armored and equipped for war, A more heardy and strong sword to break the defense.
Renesance: Light equipped guards fast guards: the need of a strong heavier sword isn't there, and you chose a fast light weapon, since your opponents aren't wearing armor, you can cut them like cheese.
Of course the bruits are an exception, but usually you use speed to tackle these slow tanks.
