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. | The '''Galleon''' is a Pirate boss ship.

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. | The '''Galleon''' is mostly brown, with some more metallic coloring for some parts of the ship.

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 its broadside to face you.

* 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. | * Avoid both the nose and the left side of the '''Galleon''' as its [[Spinal Weaponry|Spinals]] are mounted on those parts of the ship.

* 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. | * Avoid using hull-tanking ships to fight the '''Galleon''', as both the it and other [[Pirates]] deal high amounts of damage to hull.

*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. | *The '''Galleon''' is extremely weak to long range ships such as the [[Judgement]].
