 The '''Vanguard''' is a very compact [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] and the smallest in the game. It has low [[Turrets|Turret]] and [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]] firepower and is commonly used as a support [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]]. The outside appears very armored, but it has rather low health for a [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]]-class ship.
-This [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] contains 3 [[Falcon|Falcons]].
+This [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] contains 3 [[Falcon]]s.
 ==Interior==
 When you enter the ship through the right hangar, there will be a command room to the right. Inside the command room, there is a pilot seat and some control panels.
 ==Advantages==
-*Smaller than some other [[:Category:Carrier|Carriers]], about the size of the average [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]]; if not a little smaller, but with decent speed, making it more difficult to hit.
+*Smaller than some other [[:Category:Carrier|Carriers]], about the size of the average [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]]; if not a little smaller, but has the benefit of being the fastest and most agile Carrier in the game, even being faster than most [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]] and can be very annoying to chase and/or maintain constant positional advantage for larger ships.
-*Powerful [[Spinals]].
+*Versatile [[Turrets]] and powerful [[Spinals]].
 *Durable [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]].
-*Very fast Turn Speed for a carrier, as maneuverable as many of the more agile [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]] in the game.
-*Fastest [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] in the game, being faster than some [[:Category:Battlecruiser|Battlecruisers]], and faster than over half of the build menu [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]] in the game.
 *Relatively cheap to equip all fighters with AI pilots, only costing 500 robux since anyone who buys this will have VIP which gives you a free AI fighter.
 ==Disadvantages==
-*Only has 3 Falcons.
+*Only has 2 Falcons.
-*Low [[Shields|Shield]] damage without using its [[Spinals]].
+*If carriers with a better fighter fleet are available, use of this ship is impractical as there is only one Carrier allowed per team.
-*If carriers with a better fighter fleet are available, use of this ship is impractical as there is only one Carrier slot per team.
 * Large blind-spot below the ship.
 *Spinals can be hard to aim due to the large gap between the position of the two spinals.
-*Bad health for a Carrier.
+*Lowest health of all Carriers, but still significantly better than several of the available Dreadnoughts.
-*Underwhelming damage output, even with all Fighters.
+*While cheap, it has a very high warehouse level requirement to build.
-*Very expensive compared to many cheaper, more effective Carriers.
 ==Strategy==
 *A very powerful ship for killing [[:Category:Miner|Miners]] or [[:Category:Freighter|Freighters]] with since you can deploy the Y.Falcons to distract the [[Starbase]] and destroy other [[ships]] while the base is distracted.

 *The smallest [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] in Galaxy (disputed, the ship has undergone a remodel and now has a similar size factor to the [[Stormbringer|Stormbringer's]] current model).

-*The only [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] in the game that spawns [[Falcon|Falcons]].
+*The only [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] in the game that spawns [[Falcon]]s.
 *The [[Sakala]] uses the same description as the '''Vanguard'''.
 *<s>The model is currently broken, so that the fighters spawn too high and are hard to enter.</s> The model was fixed in a recent update when the Vanguard was re-released into the game.
