| The '''Hand-held bombs''' were small explosive devices designed and manufactured by [[Leonardo da Vinci]]. Consisting of a small, steel ball filled with sulfur, charcoal and potassium nitrate, they also possessed a small fuse which required lighting before the device could be detonated.

| ==History==
| |
| The bombs were first used against [[Cesare Borgia]]'s [[Borgia diehards|diehards]], who had amassed a sizable military force in the city of [[Valencia]].<ref name="Brotherhood novel">[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (novel)|''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'' novel]]</ref>
| |
| | |
| During the attack on Valencia, [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] and [[Niccolò Machiavelli]], each equipped with ten hand-held bombs, brought chaos to Cesare's military forces. They destroyed twelve [[House of Borgia|Borgia]] ships, and an entire military encampment.<ref name="Brotherhood novel" />

| | |
| Upon traveling to [[Constantinople]], Ezio crafted and used a variety of other bombs, similar to those made by Leonardo.<ref name="Neogaf Game Informer 218 details">[http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=429488 Game Informer 218 details]</ref>
