Protect Your Merchant Convoy In Warlord’s Victory At Sea

May 5, 2021 by brennon

Warlord Games has now released some of the miniatures from their Merchant Convoy set separately for those who want to dive deeper into Victory At Sea. Three packs are now available offering up some ships for you to protect from Axis hunters!

SS Ohio Tanker // Victory At Sea

Taking part in Operation Pedestal, the SS Ohio was key to this effort. Commanded by Captain Dudley Mason, this ship was the biggest tanker of its day. It carried enough fuel to keep the operation going for months. It was armed with anti-aircraft guns, armoured plates so it could withstand torpedos and could brave even the most dangerous of seas.

As part of Operation Pedestal, the Ohio was joined by thirteen other merchant ships and sixty warships as they made the journey from Gibraltar to Malta. Whilst only five vessels made it, it was still considered a slim strategic success. You can aid the Ohio with two sets; Victory Ships and Liberty Ships.

Liberty Ships // Victory At Sea

All of these sets are available separately now from the Merchant Convoy set. This means you can use these packs to pick up the miniatures you're missing in smaller numbers or just add to what you already have.

Maybe you'll change the fortunes of the Ohio and the other ships included in this operation? I love the idea of having to concentrate on defeating the enemy and protecting these ships from submarines and dive bombers!

Are you tempted by these Victory At Sea packs?
