Galleon[]
- Galleons are of a similar class to schooners, but of a more primitive design. Built for an era when cannons were just coming into use, these slow vessels often carried many marines and had high castles to better defend against boarding actions. Their squatter shape made them more maneuverable, handy when trying to present the proper side during a ship-to-ship assault.
