About 245,000 tons of battleships move from Plymouth to reinforce the blockade of western France. The campaign uses that concentration to damage the French economy while naval invasions continue against overseas territories. Under the game's rules, even a failed invasion still imposes economic costs, so pressure matters alongside territorial success. The sequence illustrates a historical planning problem: ships assigned to blockade, invasion support, and distant operations cannot be used everywhere at once.
