Main advantage seems to me Rogue 2 engines, galleon 4 engines, that makes a huge cost difference, in case of expensive engines.

Galleon has 2 more slots, but these are from shields and scanner slots so are not that useful, Rogue has 6 different possibilities to place elec and so on while galleon has 4. But i always didn't find anything to make use of that many different slots, 2-3 elec12 cloaks, then jammers, mines or weapons. Futhermore, the 4 armor slots of the galleon are useful, as 4 shadow shields + 2 ultras cloak 98%, while 3 + 2 cloack 97%(with a chameleon it gets 98 again, but a robber baron is far more preferrabble).

Galleon hull is more expensive in resources but cheper in iron.

Tech is of course 8 and 11, but that difference is little in my eyes, except con is expensive.

Big advantage of galleon is 1000 kT of cargo, far advantagous for lonely mineral stealing missions and in case of robbing after a battle(normal LFs have problems surviving a battle, being unarmed and little jammed). Furthermore here is 4 engines a slight adavantage, fully packed gelleon is faster than fully packed rogue due to speed formula using the term wight/numb of engines.
Furthermore battle survival of galleon is better, since with robber baron and 98% cloaked the rogue has 7 slots for survival equipment, with the galleon having 8 slots for it.

Mine hit survival is better for rogue.

Rogue has more fuel relativ to weight and especially to weight with filled cargo.

So i'm a bit lost why everybody seems to be so fond of rogue, often the galleon seems to be better.
Or do you all have NRSE?
