The game is anti-British because you kill soldiers of the British Army. I think the inclusion of Maria Thorpe and Shaun Hastings also shows how anti-British Ubisoft is. So Assassin's Creed was anti-Christian and anti-Muslim, Assassin's Creed II and Brotherhood were anti-Italian and Revelations was anti-Greek (Byzantine)?

There will be Templars on both sides of the war and Connor will easily switch sides to reach his target.
