Talk:Swords of Eden

Excalibur

• The info on King Arthur pulling excalibur out of the stone does not match the tale. The sword in the stone and excalibur are different swords, excalibur was given to Arthur by the lady of the lake after the sword in the stone was broken. However I don't know what the canon states directly about the sword but I think it should be checked or changed.

Appearance

• Does the Sword look exactly like it does in the picture, like a two-handed medieval sword, or can it change into a one-handed falchion or sabre if the user wishes? BleedingEffect 11:40, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Altair's Sword

What if the sword of Altair in AC2 is the sword of eden. Genghis Khan had the sword but then Altair's son shot his horse which killed him. Would they then not take this piece of eden? that may be why the sword looks different in the second game compared to the first, because its a different sword altogether. The only flaw that i see in this is that the codex never mentioned the sword being in his possession and the fact that Ezio would probably know if he had two pieces of eden rather than just one.

- Firstly it is never stated that Qulan Gai, the murderer of Genghis Khan, is in fact the son of Altair. The connection may be implied but it is never said to be true. Also, the Sword of Altair from AC2 is in fact the same Sword of Altair from AC1, but that sword is not the best sword in AC1, He later gains the Syrian Sword after memory block 5. This may be the source of your confusion of the subject. Vaxis 06:01, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hundred Years' War

I know many things about history, and I am sure that the French, due to Jeanne d'Arc's efforts, won the war, not the English. She was burned at the stake before the war ended, but her cause lived on. She was the main rallying point of the French victory. So this page should be edited to say such. HiddenBlade91 14:54, December 3, 2010 (UTC)

Why would such an advanced civilization would have a sword when it can have more advanced weaponry?

Why would such an advanced civilization would have a sword when it can have more advanced weaponry such as guns and lasers? Besides the Apples give knowledge of such advanced weapons. Blix1ms0ns 00:22, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

Well, we have swords until today, even if they're more ceremonial or decorative than anything. Might have been something along the same lines =GuardDog 01:37, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

:It also depends on whether their technological route developed into guns. Take Star Wars for example, the Jedi and Sith use lightsabres, which are far more advanced than anything we have available to us nowadays; they're basically swords. Just because you can hit something from further away does not make it more advanced. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 01:56, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

So can you deflect or cut bullets, bolts, or arrows with what sword (similar to how lightsabers can deflect lasers if the wielder is skilled enough) or it is just super sharp or lucky?

I don't think the sword is meant as a weapon really anyway, when you consider that it wasn't necessarily made fighting per se as TWCB didn't know there was going to be a war etc.. (otherwise they would have arverted the first disaster). perhaps it was made after though... Subject AMDR 08:36, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

Ghengis Khan

I don't believe that there's any evidence that Ghengis Khan had the Sword. Altair suspected he had a Piece of Eden, but he didn't say which one. Sounds like speculation to me. 98.192.42.30 02:32, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

I think Ghengis Khan was seen in possession of the Sword during one of Subject 16's Glyphs in ACII. -- ’R BlaiddDdraig 02:40, March 15, 2011 (UTC)
