Memory
I doubt this will be the name of the actual memory. Ghost of War and A Dangerous Secret maybe, but not this. Stormbeast ♉ The Helpful Place 05:55, July 9, 2012 (UTC)
- Well, we could remove the memory category/template and replace with location tags until we have more info.. --VATSA (TALK • GENTEK) 06:00, July 9, 2012 (UTC)
Nitpicky Grammer business
Taking the advice to not Edit War (I'd like to stay on this wiki, thank you very much), I don't understand why the tense in Mayan Ruins is in past-tense. The game has not yet been relased and niether has exclusive pre-orders memories. I understand the fact that it is just a few months from launch, yet the fact remains that the game is not out yet. It should also be mentioned that the other two pre-order memories are in present-tense.
I hope that I don't get frowned upon for this, but I just want to keep things organized.

To keep things consistent, all articles are in-game (apart from real-life ones), meaning articles about memories must be in past tense because they have already happened. <choose><option>http://images.wikia.com/assassinscreed/images/7/7f/ArcemzSig.png</option></choose>
Activation
How do I start this mission. I have done the codes but now what? I'm in sequence 9 if this helps. Thanks in advance! :)
Go to a Harbormaster and look for the mission called "Cerros". Slate Vesper (talk) 10:13, November 3, 2012 (UTC)
Which editions got this mission etc?
I'm a bit confused as to which additions actually got this mission. It is listed as part of the limited edition in quite a few places, but in the US it is also noted that it was a pre-order bonus with Gamestop. Z98 (talk) 05:09, November 6, 2012 (UTC)
