Design Paradigm, Game balance, and Gunner vs Engineer.
Richard LeMoon:
I already suggested making the buff hammer increase gun rotation speed and max HP rather than increase damage. Still very useful on the rest of the ship and guns, but not enough to replace all gunners with buff engineers. Simple and effective.
The adding slots/dual slot thing was really a "whateva'" idea while I practiced my image skills. Not really serious, but helpful for brainstorming.

Sorry to go off on a tangent but I stumbled apon this relevant little gem on the internet right after reading through this thread and could not stop laughing.

I feel insulted.
This idea would have allowed to even have 2 gunners if not all 3 of them on 1 ship, maximizing the power of different ammo types compared to 3 engineers maximizing repair/buff/anti fire power.
A little tuning for the implemention of the idea and you would have your 4 ammo types and 2 engineering tools for gunner and 2 ammo types and 4 engineering tools for engineers, as answer to "the engineer has actually more than 1 ammo type" and as an opposite to removing the default ammo from every class, which many were so fond of.
I do believe that putting thought into that one is worth the time (if putting thought into a game is worth at all), but whateva
Richard LeMoon:
So, while pondering something, another something occurred to me that might make gunners a bit more desirable. What if simply being on a gun made it reload faster? Not a class specific passive. Just if anyone is on a gun, it reloads faster. Pilots and engineers have other things to do while guns are loading. Gunners, not so much. Even a buff gungineer gets off the gun to keep it buffed. This would be more of a hotseat buff. If your ship is doing well with no repairs to be made, all guns would load a bit faster just by keeping someone in the seat.
