Before Assassin's Creed: Revelations is released on PC, I want to catch up with the story in Brotherhood... One of my favourite features in the game is the Borgia Tower assault, which I done without any fighting myself this time: with the help of hired Mercenaries and summoned Assassins. I upload this mostly to remember the good times and the game by it, also to show the game running smoothly on HSI Radeon HD 6770, on max graphics, with small lags only present while using FRAPS (in fact, it runs FASTER that ACII). Ezio is wearing DLC Helmschmied Drachen Armor and has the shop quest Spada Lunga sword. Oh, and this particular song suits the video so well - apart from being set in 16th century, the track speaks about assaulting the tower, fire and crossbows, as well as having just the right length, rhythm and mood... It still remains one of my favourite songs of all time. So, a bit about the music:

Sixteenth Century Greensleeves from Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, produced by Martin Birch, as well as Ritchie and Ronnie James; first released in 1975, lineup (mostly Elf members):

Ronnie James Dio -- vocals
Ritchie Blackmore -- guitar
Micky Lee Soule -- piano, mellotron, clavinet, organ
Craig Gruber -- bass
Gary Driscoll -- drums

[Lyrics by Ronnie james Dio, Music by Ritchie Blackmore and Ronnie James Dio]

It's only been an hour
Since he locked her in the tower
The time has come
He must be undone
By the morning

Many times before
The tyrant's opened up the door
Then someone cries
Still we close our eyes
Not again

Meet me when the sun is in the western skies
The fighting must begin before another someone dies
Cross bows in the fire light
Green sleeves waving
Madmen raving
Through the shattered night
Yeah yeah yeah

Flames are getting higher
Make it leap unto the spire
Draw bridge down
Cut it to the ground
We shall dance around the fire

No more night
We have seen the light
Let it shine on bright
Hang him higher, higher

Draw bridge down
Cut it to the ground
We shall dance all around the fire, around the fire

No more night
we've seen the light
let it shine on bright

Hang him higher, higher
Put the man on the fire

Draw bridge down
Cut it to the ground
We gotta dance around the fire, the fire, the fire
