So what characters do we expect to appear? People like Robbespierre are a given: I wonder if Thomas-Alexandre Dumas might appear, given the recently published biography The Black Count drew a lot of attention to him. Thomas Jefferson could make a reappearance as he was the US's ambassador at the time (Thomas Paine was also present during the revolution). If the game moves north to England and Holland we could see a young Wellington, though I doubt Nelson could appear given Ubisoft has hinted naval warfare may not necessarily reappear. I'd love it if William Wilberforce and the abolition movement were present in the game but I'm doubtful. Perhaps Connor is visiting his aunt in London, conferring with those people while offering some advice to Arnaud, perhaps warning to not treat a revolution so eagerly?
