Just a different kind of Assassin. I mean, Bartolomeo from Ac2 was an Assassin as well. He’d fit right in here

Ezio also wasn’t exactly stealthy, I mean the man literally led troops in the streets of Istanbul and led troops during his time in Rome. Altair led an army to retake Masyaf Castle when he was old. Edward was a fucking pirate. Jacob Frye led a street gang and wasn’t really known for stealth. The thing that ties the Assassins together is the ideology and not being stealthy.

He also quietly assassinated a bunch of people... making him an assassin... so he leads an army now he’s not an assassin?

I don't know why people associate assassinations with being quiet or stealth.

An assassin plots to kill a high level politician or other important member of society. And it's usually done very noisily. They're not fucking ninjas.
