Victory at Sea – USS Iowa

Victory at Sea – USS Iowa brings one of the largest and most powerful battleships ever built to the tabletop, offering unmatched speed, firepower, and resilience. Though superficially based on the South Dakota-class, USS Iowa was longer, more heavily armored, and significantly faster thanks to its powerful engines. This additional size also allowed for a greater number of anti-aircraft guns, making it a formidable force against enemy aircraft. Often serving as a flagship, Iowa-class battleships played a crucial role in escorting fast carrier fleets across the Pacific.

During World War II, USS Iowa transported President Franklin D. Roosevelt across the Atlantic for a critical Allied conference in 1943 before joining the Pacific fleet. It provided shore bombardment at Kwajalein and Eniwetok, protected aircraft carriers around the Marshall Islands, and was present at the Japanese surrender in Tokyo Bay as the flagship of the Third Fleet. After serving in the Korean War and a Cold War-era reactivation, USS Iowa was finally decommissioned in 1990 and now operates as a museum ship in Los Angeles. In Victory at Sea, this legendary battleship brings superior speed and firepower to US Navy fleets. Command the USS Iowa in your next battle, available now at Boarding School Games.
