Victory at Sea – Jeanne d’Arc

Victory at Sea – Jeanne d’Arc brings the unique French training cruiser to the game, offering a versatile vessel that blended education with combat capability. Designed as a floating school for the Marine Nationale, Jeanne d’Arc was not built for frontline engagements but still played an important role in World War II. Armed with the same guns as the Duguay-Trouin-class cruisers, she lacked the speed and armor of a true warship but made valuable contributions to the Free French Naval Forces.

During the war, Jeanne d’Arc was part of a flotilla that transported French gold reserves to Canada before being stationed in Martinique. In 1943, she joined the Allies and underwent a refit, removing her torpedo tubes and aircraft while gaining improved anti-aircraft defenses. She later served in the Mediterranean, supporting operations against Axis forces. In Victory at Sea, Jeanne d’Arc provides a unique addition to French fleets, offering a blend of history and tactical flexibility.
