Victory at Sea - Richelieu

Victory at Sea - Richelieu brings the powerful and resilient French battleship to your fleet, offering a well-armored and heavily armed warship designed to counter the growing strength of the Italian Navy. Armed with eight 15-inch guns and protected against similar-caliber fire, Richelieu was a formidable vessel that nearly fell into Axis hands before escaping to Dakar.

After enduring British attacks aimed at preventing its use by Germany, Richelieu eventually joined the Free French Naval Forces in 1942. A major refit in the United States enhanced its combat capabilities, and it later served with the British fleet in the Pacific, playing a role in the liberation of Singapore. Though never engaging in direct surface combat, Richelieu remained an important asset throughout the war and continued to serve in training and active-duty roles until its decommissioning in 1968. In Victory at Sea, this historic battleship adds strength and strategic depth to any French fleet. Command Richelieu in your next naval battle, available now at Boarding School Games.
