The best way to counter this is to not fix the main gun completely until it's in range to fire. Fix it most of the way and then wait. Once you're in range and they get their Merc shots off whack the gun. Hop on, and flay them.

But a smart merc gunner will do essentially the same thing. They'll wait for the front gun to come back up before shooting it down again.

If they're waiting, then they're not shooting down your armor. Unless they have two mercs, it shouldn't be too difficult to get up close and personal.

But you're not doing any damage either since your gun is down... Eventually you'll have to bring it back up, and the merc will take it down, and they'll turn their short range side on you, and then you're screwed. It's a serious problem with the Goldfish right now.

And by the time you'll be so close you can outmanoeuvre its slow turn radius. It's a game of chess. It's the tactic I use and its not failed me yet.

counted 4-5 seconds on my ship = 1 engine down, 2 guns down and my hull being gone.
4 seconds in medium - close range.
