The Galaxian Flagships (aka "Galboss") adorn the very top of the formation. When the Flagships begin a bombing raid, they will take up to two red Galaxians with them as defense. The more red Galaxians you destroy while they are diving towards you, the more points the Flagship will be worth to you if you can destroy it in flight. Go for the points if the cluster is a safe distance from your ship, but don't allow greed to compel you to crash into them when they get too close. If a Flagship manages to escape at the end of a round, it will return at the start of the next round, resulting in three Flagships at the top of the formation. A maximum of ten Galaxian Flagships can be on one round at the same time with this tactic. If you shoot the flagship on its bombing raid, the remaining Galaxians diving at the time will stop shooting. This is your brief chance to pick them off while they can't shoot back. They also reappear in Pac-Man, Galaga, Super Xevious (Arcade), Dig Dug, and other Namco games.
