Because people of cultural significance are approached by one or the other to aid their cause.

Okay so maybe the Mayan mission is a modern mission or something
It still doesn't change the fact that this has to be the most hysterical way imaginable to market this game to the British
Man I'm sure English citizens are just like desperate to get their paws on that delicious looking stars-and-stripes cover

EDIT: Like how hard would it be to just have a Special Edition in Europe that like had the British flag and was like "Fight for the King" or "William Howe" edition or some shit
EDIT 2: I don't know which General or character in the Revolutionary War do the British love or admire?
EDIT 3: They don't even call it the Revolutionary War there do they? Is it like "The War of Colonial Insolence?" "The War of Greedy Slaveowners?"

It also contains a picture of King George being shit on by Larry the Cable Guy.

King George will totally be in a CGI sequence walking around London or something
And out of nowhere a bald eagle will descend from the heavens
And proceed to take a crap on him
No actually King George will be the final Templar Boss
His plans of raising taxes on tea was just the first step to global domination
And America actually saved the ENTIRE WORLD by declaring independence because they fostered an order of Assassins who sent bald eagles to England to crap on King George

Maybe Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and Alexander Hamilton can be like a team of heroic Assassins in a spinoff television show for kids
And there'd be all this unresolved sexual tension between Hamilton and Jefferson and oh crap I'm back to the Jefferson/Hamilton yaoi
Damn you Jefferson/Hamilton YAOI!!!!!!

OH SHIT GODWIN'S LAW


It's... not really like that at all? The British don't view the American Revolution as a particular dark spot in our history which we must always be vigilant to prevent from happening again. Might just be my perspective, but I don't see it as any worse than the hundred years war. It was pretty shitty from the general viewpoint that war itself is shitty. But arguably more justified than a lot of shit that we did during the Imperial days.

If you really wanted to make a Brit apologize, or feel like shit playing for our own side in a situation you'd set the game up in China and have the players getting people addicted to opium so that you could exploit them for resources.

Nah you missed the comparison I was trying to make. It's not about how apologetic the English (or Germans) should be, because I'm comparing England in that example to America, (in a WW2 context), not to Nazi Germany.

It's more like the idea of being sold on killing your countrymen and that your countrymen are the enemy

See, here I could bring up something that happened in my comic but I won't because this thread ain't about me.

It's about Snake's hopes and dreams never coming to fruition.

I don't even want to know what that comic is supposed to be an allegory of, but man, that imagery, Speroni. That imagery.
The KKK didn't like hire you to draw propaganda for them, did they?
