This article is about the technology. For the unit, see Cannon Galleon. |
Cannon Galleon was a technology in Age of Empires II that could be researched at the Dock upon reaching the Imperial Age and researching Chemistry. Once researched, Cannon Galleons could be built.
Cannon Galleon was available to all civilizations except for the Aztecs, Cumans, Huns, Incas, and Mayans.
With update 47820 for the Definitive Edition, the technology has been removed from the game, meaning that Cannon Galleons become available once Chemistry was researched.
