As some of you might know, recently there was an incident involving two players who mounted gunboat forward guns on battleships. This might seem a minor case, however it did develope into something more as admins deleted those weapons, due to other players complaining. Seems that serveral things need clarification.
1) No weapons in the mod should be far more efficient than others. If there is a balance problem, it should be reported and fixed. This applies to forward guns as well.
2) There is no rule - no rule yet - that prohibits mounting any weapons that can possibly be mounted on any ships (unless it's cheating, and in our case it's not). Do we need this rule? I don't know, but I doubt that. This is for further discussion.
