Oak & Iron Merchantmen Expansion
Merchantmen were the lifeblood of global trade during the 17th and 18th centuries, carrying goods, wealth, and supplies across the oceans. While lightly armed compared to warships, they were vital targets for pirates and privateers, and their protection often sparked fierce naval battles.
