Man O' War is a naval combat specialist game published by Games Workshop in their Warhammer Fantasy Battle universe. Like the other specialist games, it's fun and utterly unsupported by GW -- in fact, Games Workshop supports MOW even less than the other specialist games, because they don't even bother hosting the rules or selling old models.

Games Workshop tried to cash in on nostalgia for Man O' War by making Dreadfleet, a superficially-similar naval combat game; unfortunately, they missed the mark by a wide margin, because Dreadfleet turned out to be more of a boardgame than a wargame, with only one ship available for each faction and minimal possibilities for customization.
