Most other stuff --- engineers.
Basically, if you can make a lumberjack work, I will love you forever :)

Some people manage to miss with the flamethrower.

Wait, what? The Flamethrower? It is the simplest gun to shoot, ever, of all time. Just wait til we close and then sweep back and forth. I mean its just...
Nevermind, Powder Monkeys.

Usually because the captain thinks that LJ is a super range gun and never engages under 1500m. You need real skills to hit at a four digit range.

That explains why my gunners are always stunned into silence... I just try to maintain maybe 4-500 meters. Hitting with ANYTHING in 4 digit range is hard.

It's not only the Lumberjack. I need a gunner with discipline on the Flak to wait for the lochnagar finisher, a steady hand to hose components down with the hwatcha, and one that can prioritize component targets with the heavy carronade.
When it's the gun that makes the ship work, you need a good gunner. It's that simple.
But still, it is amazing when you're locking down someone's balloon and grounding them from 1000+ meters.

Agreed. I love it when I get a good gunner on my Hwachafish. You can tell, too. It's absolutely beautiful when he disables every component in on volley, and then you can just turn, gat them, turn, Hwacha, turn, gat, repeat. Or have your team mate meta him. I still prefer my main engi on most ships, but on Spires, Mobs, and to an extent the Gally, gunner is really important.
