The '''Retro Gideon''' uses the original model of the Gideon, with its 4 prominent blade-like protrusions on the front and back and the central bracing down the front end of the ship. It is more powerful and more well-armored than the current [[Gideon]], and was a limited ship that was part of the [[Retro Ship Event 2019|2019 Retro Ships event]]. | The '''Retro Gideon''' uses the original model of the Gideon, with its 4 prominent blade-like protrusions on the front and back and the central bracing down the front end of the ship.
