* A special material is needed to make certain unique items, such as Franklin inventions. At some point in the game an unmarked crate will appear partway up the cliff behind the Homestead. It will contain all you will need of that material.

* You will not unlock the Thieves' Guild sidequests until you pickpocket a certain amount of money. Do so asap so that your progress counts.

* Many of the challenge related instructions are vague or inaccurate. An example of this is "kill 5 animals from horseback" - you'd think shooting game with a bow would be appropriate here, but it isn’t. Instead you have to jump-kill them with your hidden blades. Another one is "disarm 5 opponents" - this means stealing their weapon from them while you yourself are unarmed, not disarming them in general.

* There is an achievement for beating one of each game at the homestead. The bowls game near the ship will not count. In their infinite wisdom, Ubisoft implemented almost full AI for centuries-old board games that are easily "solved", meaning almost everyone will find beating an intermediate or higher AI player impossible. Solution? Go online and find programs that run the game with perfect AI (there are a few available, though they're quite old and may require weird things like Java). Install them and "play" their perfect AI's move against AC3's AI.
