If the target is unarmed, the deck gun works fine. Otherwise, let the torpedo do the talking.

Not much fun when a merchie starts popping caps at ya from 2000 meters....learned that that hard way the 1st time I booted up GWX .


Seriously, depends on the tactical situation. I tend to use the gun when I can at night, much prettier when they blow up.....

Even with small unarmed targets, I use the deck gun as a last resort. Odds are the weather will not cooperate with the desire to use the deck gun and in most instances, you have to man the gun yourself to prevent wasting time and shots. I usually reserve the gun for anything smaller than a Coastal Merchant.
