	*In [[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag\|''Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag'']] and ''[[Assassin's Creed: Rogue\|Rogue]]'', regular Men O' War can be either level 36, level 49, or level 60, while legendary ships are level 75 (except for the ''Storm Fortress'', which is level 99).		*In [[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag\|''Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag'']] and ''[[Assassin's Creed: Rogue\|Rogue]]'', regular Men O' War can be either level 36, level 49, or level 60, while legendary ships are level 75 (except for the ''Storm Fortress'', which is level 99).
	**Also in ''Rogue'', after beating the main story, there are no more Men O' War at level 60 that can be found in the open sea, as only the Assassins are in control of level 60 Men O' War and the order is eradicated at the end of the campaign. They can still be recruited into Shay's fleet by replaying the memory "Cold Fire" in Sequence 6. Shay must ignore the objective and sail straight to Assassin controlled Anticosti where a level 60 Man O' War and level 29 Frigate will spawn, as this memory takes place prior to the destruction of the Colonial Order. Shay must be quick as these ships have a tendency to spawn and immediately despawn unless the Morrigan does damage to them as soon as they spawn.		**Also in ''Rogue'', after beating the main story, there are no more Men O' War at level 60 that can be found in the open sea, as only the Assassins are in control of level 60 Men O' War and the order is eradicated at the end of the campaign.
