N-Sunderland:
The other reason is that the mortar doesn't have as much arc as the flak, so getting two on one target would be tough.
That'd definitely be interesting to try. You'd only have a few degrees to work with, but that'd be offset by the length/width of the ship facing you, so there'd actually be a good chance of making it work. If done right, it could be fantastically OP.

It makes sense for the same reason that it makes sense on a Junker or a Galleon. You can have two different broadsides with two different strategies. Have a sniper side and a brawler side, or a brawler side and a utility side. I wrote a whole lot on that subject earlier in this thread.

5 flares, 1 balloon.
Gunner fires top, engineers fire side outer, then side inner. That is the potential. 10 flares on a single target.
:D

I'm not quite sure whether the inner flaks or the outer gats will be the limiting factor on the ship, because the gats are at a pretty funky angle, but look like they ought to aim forward well enough. It would definitely be tight though.
I should have clarified that I meant the possibility of 5 intersecting fields of fire on a 4 man ship doesn't make much sense.
A lot of the double strategy builds people have posted look really fun, and with the advantage of being able to swap from one side to the other faster than the junker and galleon being there, it's even better. Even just being able to choose between a broadside or straight approach is a great feature feature too. It offers a lot of versatility.
However, having 5 guns all facing in generally the same direction... it's just too tempting to not want to fire all of them at once. ;)

We'll have to see. From what I could see in the video, the lower guns might be at less than 45°. It all depends on the angle of each gun.

Agreed. Imagine five gatlings at once...
Better yet, imagine Flayed, with four quintuple-gat mantas firing on a single target.
If only.

5 harpoons is all you guys really need . . .
