I just received communication from Steve about stern chasers. He had
them in an early version of the game, but they ended up just being a
hassle. So let's not deal with that, but if you don't want to re-build
your ship to add another broadside cannon, we can just count the
sternchasers as a single broadside cannon. Also no real need to remove
the redundant cannon (like I said before, we just need to destroy them
in pairs).
