The '''Astraeus''' is a level 10 ship with a fairly high cargo capacity, formidable armament, and a strong hull. It's size and low speed make it an easy target for enemies, however, if not sufficiently manned. The Astraeus' main usage in combat is its two mortars, you can often see the ship hanging back and raining mortar fire down on the opponents, much like the [[Phoenix]].

With its broadside, the Astraeus can shred most ships that come its way, the only thing that hinders the ship is the turning rate of the vessel. The slowness allows the ship to be easily stern and bow-locked, although stern-locking isn't much of a viable option thanks to the stern guns.

The '''Astraeus''' is a level 10 warship with a heavy armament and a strong hull. While its size and speed make it an easy target, its raw firepower and sheer health often result in the Astraeus decimating an enemy. Additionally, the Astraeus fits 2 light mortars on its bow often used to siege an enemy from a distance. One of the largest downfalls of the Astraeus is its slow turn speed, allowing faster ships to maneuver into blindspots.
