'''Bombs''' were [[weapons]] available since the Middle Ages.
==Smoke Bombs==
===History===
Smoke Bombs were the only type of bombs that were commonly available to [[Ezio]] up until the 16th century; when he travelled to [[Constantinople]], he had a far more extensive choice of bombs.
 
====12th century====
Altaïr had access to smoke bombs during his [[quest for the Chalice]] and used them in generally the same way as [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] used them, and he could carry up to five of them. He seemed to not use them anymore after the events at [[Solomon's Temple]].
 
====15th century====
Smoke Bombs were disposable and had to be purchased for 350 florins each. Ezio could carry a maximum of three Smoke Bombs at a time, which were stored in a non-upgradeable pouch.
 
====16th century====
Smoke bombs returned when in [[Rome]], with the same abilities as before, though the actual cloud itself was visually a lot smaller than during the previous century. Smoke Bombs were also used by [[Assassin Recruits|Assassin recruits]] once they reached the [[rank]] of ''Veterano'' (Veteran). Ezio could also use Smoke Bombs during his visit to Constantinople.
 
===Technique===
Using a powder technology from the Far East, the bomb releases a thick, grayish smoke screen for 8 seconds when thrown, to allow Ezio Auditore to flee his enemies, or assassinate them quickly within those seconds. The clever and strategic use of Smoke Bombs during difficult assassinations or large guard fights was very important, as they allowed Assassins to strike specific targets or take down larger groups of enemies without being seen or encountering resistance, and allowed them to slip in and out of hotspots undetected.
 
==Hand-held bombs==
[[File:ACR-screen02.jpg|thumb|250px|Ezio uses a bomb to stun several Byzantine guards.]]
{{Quote|Quite little bombs, but effective enough to, say, wreck ships or disperse a camp.|[[Leonardo da Vinci]].|Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (novel)}}
 
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 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 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. The known types of bombs used by Ezio during his [[search for the Seals]] were Tripwire Bombs, Smoke Bombs and Fire Crackers.
 
==Trivia==
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'', the Smoke Bomb pouch is labelled as "small" despite not having any upgrades.
*In ''Assassin's Creed II'', in the memory "[[Cheaters Never Prosper]]," the three guards and [[Dante Moro]] are immune to Smoke Bombs.
*While looting [[Brutes]], there is a high chance of obtaining some Smoke Bombs.
*In ''Brotherhood'', there seems to be a small spark of light when a Smoke Bomb is being deployed, unlike in ''Assassin's Creed II'', where there is no spark.[[File:AC_Brotherhood_icon_Smoke_Bomb.png|right]]
*In ''Assassin's Creed II'', Smoke Bombs are very helpful for earning the [[Assassin's Creed II Achievements|achievements]]/trophies "No Hitter", "Messer Sandman", and "Sweeper".
*In ''Brotherhood'', one of the BAM (Brotherhood Assist Move) maneuvers has the Assassins throw numerous Smoke Bombs around Ezio before descending to aid him.
*In ''Brotherhood'', the player may lock onto a far-off NPC before pressing the "throw bomb" button to throw the Smoke Bomb from a distance.
*In ''Brotherhood'', [[Papal guard]]s are immune to the effects of Smoke Bombs if not taken by surprise, i.e. in combat.
*The Smoke Bomb also appear in the ''Brotherhood'' multiplayer mode as an [[Multiplayer Abilities|ability]].
*In ''Brotherhood'', Cesare Borgia is completely immune to Smoke Bombs.
*In ''Brotherhood'', pickpockets are completely immune to Smoke Bombs.
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'', the only way to see through the smoke of the Smoke Bomb is to turn on [[Eagle Sense]].

Swimming, or Swah'Himing in the original Arabic, is a secret Assassin technique invented by Altair Ibn-La'Ahad at some point after the events of Bloodlines. It is concerned with the prevention of drowning. The Assassin achieves flotation through practiced motion of the arms, and may re-position themselves in the water by kicking and using their arms as rudders.

Up until the invention of this world-changing technique, all who came into contact with water suffered near instant death. Casualties were likely very high in port towns such as Acre and Venice, and any sailors falling overboard on voyages were invariably doomed. This technique was passed down exclusively through Assassin families all the way into the early 16th Century. Sometime after, it began to filter into common knowledge. The Templars, unwilling to credit such a life-saving technique to the Assassin Order, managed to convince the masses that Swimming had been a skill well known to all civilizations since the dawn of time.

Trivia

  • The Templar coverup of Swah'Himing's assassin origins may have affected the Assassin order itself, since neither Lucy nor any other Assassin seemed remotely surprised that Ezio was the only person in the Animus sessions who didn't drown instantly in water, including highly athletic thieves in Venice, or sailors in Acre.
  • Despite their ties with the Assassins, Courtesans, Mecenaries and Theives all drown when you push them into the water (likely cacling as you do so). This knowledge was likely restricted to Assassins and their families.
