Sea monster
Sea monsters are one aspect of Atlantis outposts and come in three different varieties:
 |
The Triketos, which is the most common Atlantean sea monster. It likes to ram vessels with its nasty trident and shoot arrows at its opponents. When it dies its corpse leaves behind a certain magic that, when a ship runs over it, will partially heal the ship. |
 |
The Gorgonyx, which is a strong attacking monster; it can ram a vessel with its shell and shoot arrows at a predator. |
 |
The Archelon can ensnare your ship in a net, costing you moves and sailing tokens. It also has the best treasure haul rewards of the three. |
Of these, the Sea Monsters strength alters from Scout, Light, Heavy, and Elite, which prefix the name of the Monster. The difficulty of the Monster can also be determined by the color on the Monsters back: light blue(above) for Scout, dark blue for Light, red for Heavy and black for Elite. The farther into the board you go, the more intelligent and strong the Sea Monsters become.
All sea monster encounters are sinking.

You may need to give or take a couple of shots due to healing. Atlantis monsters heal fairly rapidly, faster as their rating (scout, light etc.) increases. To sink a trike in 1 turn it requires 6 shots. All bigger monsters require at least 2 turns to sink for a single War Frigate and as such their "health" is affected by repair rates.
