==Description==
==Description==
 
The '''Galleon''' is a Pirate boss ship. Its model is rotated 90 degrees to have its broadside face opponents at all times. As a result, the front of the ship itself never faces its target, despite having Spinals mounted on its nose. It is still capable of firing them if a target manages to get in front of the nose. It has a large focus on hull health and damage, and is rather powerful against single opponents if it has sufficient support from other Pirates.
 
== Appearance ==
The '''Galleon''' is mostly brown, with some more metallic coloring for some parts of the ship. It has a massive chunk of ore smashed into its fuselage, with a singular Turret mounted top of it. Its design somewhat resembles mid 20th century American streamlined locomotives and trainsets. Its model is also an Archived, Recolored version of the old [[Armageddon]].
==Behavior==
==Behavior==
The '''Galleon''' is a broadside ship and will try to align its broadside to face you. It also will call in Pirate ships, similar to the [[Kodiak]] and other pirate bosses. It has a relatively strong nuke, at around 4k studs of blast radius and 1k damage.


The Galleon is a broadside ship and will try to align it's broadside at you. It also will call in Pirate ships (Like the [[Punisher]]).
It spawns every 70 minutes with no player count limit.
 
It spawns every 54 minutes.
==Strategy==
==Strategy==
 
* Avoid both the nose and the left side of the '''Galleon''' as its [[Spinal Weaponry|Spinals]] are mounted on those parts of the ship. It is also recommended to use hull breaker ships, as it is a hull tank with low shields. If there are few or no other pirates, the Galleon can be easily destroyed with a single long range [[Turrets|Turret]] based ship.
Stay behind or in front of the Galleon as it is a broadside ship. It is also recommended to use hull breaker ships, as the Galleon is a hull-tank with low shields. alternatively if you want to do it with little effort lure over a decimator using a Viper it will get the job done for you.  
* Avoid using hull-tanking ships to fight the '''Galleon''', as both the it and other [[Pirates]] deal high amounts of damage to hull. A high damaging shield tank such as the [[Lazarus]] is excellent for this purpose.
* Alternatively, It can be brought to a [[Starbase]] or [[:Category:Planets|Planet]] to assist in killing it. This can help remove any other [[Pirates]] as well.
*The '''Galleon''' is extremely weak to long range ships such as the [[Judgement]]. Use your [[Turrets]] at a distance, and warp away slightly if it catches up to you. It may take longer, but is effective if your ship can’t last long in heavy fire.
==Loot==
==Loot==
 
The '''Galleon''' drops 6 [[Plasma Battery|Plasma Batteries]], 150 [[Armor Scrap|Armor Scraps]], and 1200 [[Material Scrap|Material Scraps]]. Attacking it solo can give over 30k [[Credits]] in combat rewards.
The Galleon drops 6 [[Ores and Materials|Plasma Batteries]] and 150 [[Ores and Materials|Armor Scraps]].

* Looks like an Emperor-class Battleship from Warhammer 40k.

* Uses an old model of the [[Armageddon]].
* Uses the old model of the [[Armageddon]]
*Due to the fact that broadsiding AI would require a different movement pattern, the Galleon's model is simply turned 90 degrees sideways, which makes warping and turning very strange looking.
*Galleon destruction can be a useful way of earning credits, since Plasma Batteries can be used for Uranium at the Mega Base, or for [[Credits]] at [[Mega Base]]. 500 Armor Scraps can be turned in for 75000 credits, Depending on how much damage you deal you may get a good amount of Combat Rewards as well.
*Galleon's AI is considered to be very dumb due to how easy it is to avoid his shots and how he wont move around as much as the other bosses
