Regarding enemy deck guns, one idea might be to make an alternate set of small open mount guns for merchants and maybe subchasers and other small craft. These guns would be far easier to destroy. Real warships would have enough crew that even if you swept their guns clear for a moment, they'd be remanned in no time. Bottom line is duking it out with a DE/DD should be insanity or suicidal desperation.
Can't wait to get my PC set up upstairs (my "man room" is a gutted mess pending remodel).
