Not exactly a bug, but a couple of inconsistencies:
"Assassin" starts in 1665. "Bartolomeu o Portugues" starts in 1660. So Elting hasn't even started his own timeline when he's helping Bartolomeu raid Cartagena in Bartolomeu's timeline.
Elting: "What do you think of the war between England and France?"
Bartolomeu: "Don't you mean the war between Spain and France?"
Elting: "Hardly. I used to work for Spain and if it had been at war with France, I'd have known about it."
Bartolomeu: "Well I didn't work for any nation except my homeland, Portugal. But with Portugal at war with France, I had to use an English flag to get into French ports to visit Roxanne."
Elting: "I did some work for England too, and all those missions were against France. Besides, you ought to move to my timeline. France and Portugal signed an alliance which means you'd have no problem visiting Roxanne!"
Since the stories of Johan Elting and Bartolomeu o Portugues are so intertwined, perhaps they should be consistent? I don't know off-hand whether France was at war with England, Spain or Portugal in the 1660's; from what I've learned while researching other things, relations at that time were somewhat fluid! But the "Assassin" storyline requires France to be at war with England and at peace with both Spain and Portugal, whereas "Bartolomeu" probably doesn't care. (Though the early missions would be easier if France and Portugal are at peace, as that would mean Bartolomeu is also at peace with France. In particular, as things are now, the smuggling run to Marigot will have problems if you don't fly a false flag or if the storekeeper sees through your deception.)
