The campaign assembles a large army with four third-rate ships of the line for an overseas operation. The force will sail to one port, land and secure it, then reload before moving to the next objective. Captured harbours become stepping stones for continued movement. Heavy escorts protect the transports, while repeated access to ports keeps the army from being stranded after its first landing.
