Forts were fortified locations typically garrisoned by the military forces of the owner.
During Golden Age of Piracy, the pirate named Edward Kenway assaulted and captured ten forts throughout the Caribbean, whereas during the American Revolutionary War, the Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton captured several forts under the control of the British Army, located in Boston, New York, and the Frontier.
After destroying a fort's gunpowder reserves and killing its captain, Ratonhnhaké:ton lowered the British flag in exchange for a Colonial one. By doing so, control of the fort shifted from British control to that of the Continental Army.
By capturing the forts in the Caribbean, Kenway was able to exert his piratical influence over a much greater area, as the forts would attack any passing warships. In the Thirteen Colonies, capturing the forts helped make the trade routes much safer, as previously there had been a higher risk of losing trade vessels, such as convoys, to bandits.
