It worked out surprisingly well, but with a few mods. For one thing, I
shrunk the range bands to 6". The number of range bands for a gun is
equal to the gun size in inches divided by two (rounded up). So 12" guns
have 6 range bands, for a total range of 36". 8" guns have 4 range
bands.
There are some other things I altered. I have modifiers for certain
things, like the second and third ships firing at the same target. I
changed a roll of 6 to doing only 1 point of damage, but still allows a
reroll.
Actually, there is a whole TON of stuff in my rules. Armour for gun
mounts, fire criticals, flooding, optional ammunition usage. Lots of
stuff. But the rules are still pretty straightforward, and there isn't a
huge variation in weapon types.
