Altaïr: fuck you mean three of you and a bunch of very angry gangsters threw the Templars out of London
Jacob: I mean EXACTLY THAT how is that so hard to believe—

Lmaoooo

Altaïr is also picturing the situation very differently from what it was

Which is not to say he wouldn't still appreciate the guerilla tactics if he did grok the full picture

Jacob is nearing a point where he wishes he HAD listened more bc he's racking his brain here trying to figure out what existed way back in the Third Crusade

It's gotta be wild for future Assassins to learn the Levantine brotherhood was basically its own city state

wheezes yeah that would be SO wild for Jacob to learn straight from Altaïr like what do you mean we had our own CITY-STATE

/Altaïr gestures at his domain

an entire city-state of Assassins, how did they not get Templars trying to invade all the time

also wheezes I'm sorry Jacob is a terrible representative for the Victorian-era Assassins

Well they did sometimes!
