Gunner

A common sight on many ships, Gunners are a hardy breed of mercenaries willing to work with anyone who lets them play with cannons and gunpowder. Getting paid is a bonus, and helps pay the bills when the gunpowder chooses to misbehave.

Unlike their Bow Gunner counterparts, Gunners prefer to work amidships. Taking advantage of the greater stability granted by their position on the ship, their preferred tactic is to take aim and single out a specific part of the enemy ship for destruction. If there’s no time to take aim though, they’ll open fire with all guns and let the damage fall where it may in a pinch.
