The Man O' War, also known as a Galleon in non-English speaking countries, was a class of warship operated by, among others, the British, Spanish and Portuguese navies.
During the Golden Age of Piracy, the Man O' War was the most well-armed class of warship in operation throughout the Caribbean. Each ship bore three masts, and was capable of fielding up to fifty guns per side over three decks; on top of this, they were fitted with mortars, chainshot, heavy shot and fire barrels.
