The War Galley is a ship type in Medieval II: Total War.
Used throughout the Mediterranean since the 11th century. War Galleys are larger than normal Galleys and carry more tonnage as a result of being equipped with siege weapons like ballista or catapults, and having a larger complement of oarsmen and soldiers onboard. The standard tactic for engaging is to disable the opposing ships' sails then ram and board it.
