True enough, but they have zero defense. So if they don't escape . . . . Besides, I want to win the sea zone, not abandon it.

So why the apparent consensus that Dromons are better than Galleys? Is it only that they're better at running away?

I never made a single Dromon, every sea square on my border is filled with 3 galleys and 2 firegalleys. Nothing gets in . Screw the rest. Well I ain't got to gun galleys yet.
