The Bastion is a Battlecruiser with lots of Turret firepower and health.

Template:Ship Infobox Template

Description

The Bastion is a heavy Battlecruiser that focuses on Turret firepower. Its main body features two large protruding thrusters and an elevated cockpit area with a rounded window. This ship's relatively high turret count makes it effective against smaller ships up through ships of its own class.

Interior

Once entering the Bastion, you will enter a small room with no interior but a single seat.

Advantages

  • Variety of Turrets.
  • No blind spots.
  • Very high health.
  • Great for beginners, as it has ease of use with the turret based armament and is a good ship as an introduction to Capital Ships.
  • Good damage output with the turrets.

Disadvantages

  • Below average speed.
  • No Spinals.
  • Though not a blind spot, the bottom is poorly defended.
  • Compared to the Mjolnheimr and Hyron, the turrets are far less accurate. However, the Bastion does have higher damage output than both of the mentioned ships.
  • Due to the way the ship is shaped you have to turn it to get it out of dock which can give time to enemy Ships to do damage.

Strategy

  • Performs well as a support ship in sieges as it has many small Turrets to destroy incoming small Ships.
  • Best used for attacking Ships below its size, as it has trouble with Ships of same class due to its inferior mobility causing it to be unable to escape easily.
  • Against Battlecruisers, exploiting blind spots is your best bet against them.

Version History

  • In a older version it used to have a massive explosion upon death, which heavily damaged nearby Ships and destroyed base Turrets. This has since been fixed.
  • Buffed in .64d to gain another Medium Laser and 100 more health in each stat.
  • Medium Lasers replaced with Point Defense Laser and Long Range Laser in version .66b
  • 1 Long Range Laser replaced with 1 Point Defense Laser in version .69e due to the Long Range Laser's removal from the game.
  • 2 Point Defense Lasers changed to 2 Dual Medium Lasers and 1 Medium Railgun changed to 1 Heavy Railgun in version .73c10.
  • 2 Light Lasers and 1 Heavy Railgun replaced with 1 Heavy Siege Railgun, and 2 Dual Medium Cannons in version .75a5.
  • Dual Medium Cannons and Dual Medium Lasers replaced with Triple Medium versions, the Heavy Siege Railgun replaced with a SR PDL, Shield/Hull health increased from 1,950/2,000 to 2,100/2,200 respectively, Top Speed increased from 90 to 95, Turn Speed increased from 0.48 to 0.5, and Acceleration increased from 23 to 34 in version .75a5.

Trivia

  • Named after a defensive architectural design built into medieval European castles. A Bastion protruded from a castle's walls, allowing defenders to attack from all angles.
  • The Bastion was one of the most used ships in Galaxy Arcade before it received a gamepass in version .69d1
  • The original Bastion model had an easter egg that includes a Gnome on a desk with a few pieces of blank paper.

  • For a period of time the Bastion could not move or dock. The whole situation started with the gnome's hat falling off and preventing the ship from moving.
  • The right console on the original model had some memes like the illuminati triangle on it.
