Our guide for Assassin's Creed III will prepare you for dismantling the Red Coats' forces, detailing each sequence and optional objective along the way.

Introduction

Now that the stories of Altair Ibn-La’Ahad and Ezio Auditore seem to have come to an end, Assassin’s Creed III sees you picking up the mantle of Connor Kenway, a young Native American Assassin who sees himself swept up in the events of the American Revolutionary War. His journey will see him travel up and down the East Coast, fighting the British, rubbing up against various Founding Fathers, and killing a whole lot of people as he attempts to fend off the plots of the Templars and save his people from their predations. It’s an epic trip to an era that’s not often visited in big-budget gaming, and seems sure stand alongside Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood as a fan-favorite entry into the franchise.

GameSpot’s Game Guide to Assassin’s Creed III is intended to help you complete Connor’s journey. There are a lot of side tasks and collectibles to find, but our goal here is to guide you through the game’s main missions while preferably completing all of their optional objectives, as well. We’ll offer up tips and tricks as to how to get through the toughest missions in the game, and there’ll be plenty of video for you to watch when you need help the most. So, without further ado, let’s start the process of kicking the Redcoats straight off the continent, shall we?

if anyone is wondering what to do for recruiting assassins, its a lot different then Rev. or Brotherhood. You need to find the Liberation missions. there are usually 3 different tasks for several different people. EX: a doctor trying to fix the smallpox epidemic needs you to rescue 3 people (usually lying down some where) and bring them to him, kill 3 rabid dogs, and burn 3 piles of smallpox infested blankets. after you do all that you go back to him and talk to him, to then protect him from an ambush. after completing that, he then joins your side as your apprentice. so keep looking for those liberation mission symbols and the more you do, the more guys will join you. they made it much more personal for the recruits this time around for some reason, instead of just saving them and have them owe you their life. but there you go. also with almost every guy you add, there is a perk added to your recruit skills. whether it be starting a riot or having them disguise themselves. its definitely worth doing several missions to have more then one assassin recruit with you.
