History
The Galleon project is started by Black Anchor after learning of colossal factories operated by Cygnar and Khador. Loath to back down from a potentially lucrative challenge, Black Anchor begins its most ambitious project and decides to see if its production capabilities is up to muster.[1]
Even when the schematics are drafted, Black Anchor retrofits one of its largest dry docks to manufacture the first Galleons, and arranges with the Fraternal Order of Wizardry to acquire a limited run of custom oversized arcanum-grade cortexes. Black Anchor naturally draws on its expertise in nautical engineering to construct the Galleon.[1]
The first Galleons are test run in Clockers Cove and later purchased by the Four Star Syndicate.[1]
Properties
When unleashed upon a battlefield, the Galleon fires a rolling broadside comparable to that of a small ship, and reaches out with its enormous cargo claw to toss a warjack like a rag doll or uses its massive trident to reel in resilient foes and finish them off at close range with a series of punishing blows. The Galleon commands a high price, but for those mercenaries who have the fortune to spend, it fights as a symbol of unquestionable affluence and might.[1]
