	Following the successful capture of a fort, its flag would be lowered and replaced with a black one, and from that point on the stronghold served as an outpost for pirates in the nearby waters. By capturing forts in the Caribbean, Edward was able to exert his piratical influence over a much greater area, as the forts would attack any passing warships. In addition, capturing a fort would clear away a part of the [[map]], detailing previously undiscovered locations.<ref name="AC4" />		Following the successful capture of a fort, its flag would be lowered and replaced with a black one, and from that point on the stronghold served as an outpost for pirates in the nearby waters.
