Wait a minute, if what you say is correct, then the Assassins are at quite the disadvantage here ._.
Yeah they are. Unless they are smart enough to get enough the neutrals to help them out early on.
However, if we generally assume City Guard = Templar, do you think they will care about any of the non-assassins anymore?
Citizens and Neutrals don't have to be on their hit list (obviously unless your on the wanted list, but thats more of your own fault and a special case), but if we assume they are just going to join the Templars, they won't care about killing the citizens and neutrals anymore.
Thats my point. We don't need to make more enemies then we already have in this AG, and comments like "City Guard and Templars vs Everyone" will just cause more trouble for us to deal with later on. Which is why I said consider the City Guard a Neutral group (unless your an assassin obviously)
@ Shadow - Meh, theres a good chance the Templars will go after Kitty on day 1 since he is a merchant, so we won't see much of him after that lol xD (Sorry Aker, the truth hurts)
