Connor infiltrating a fort.

Forts were pieces of property controlled by the British Army during the American Revolution, which were used to maintain a military presence in the surrounding area, making it easier to defend against enemy factions.  During his travels, the Assassin Connor liberated the forts located in Boston, New York, and the Frontier.

After destroying a fort's gunpowder reserves and killing its captain, Connor 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 liberating the forts, the trade routes in New England became safer for trade, as previously there had been a higher risk of losing trade vessels, such as convoys, to bandits.
