I agree there should be a 3 blocks in between limit but there also still needs to be a hard limit on the amount of turrets as the game intended. Otherwise it just becomes a building race of who can mine the most and build the biggest and who can spend all day grinding...

As to what Believe is saying the military is always stronger than pirates as it is in real life, but as in real life it doesn't stop the pirates. If there is limits I wouldn't have a problem of allowing a slight modification of pirates adding a few more guns but allowing endless corn rows of guns is garbage.

No limits ends up ruining gameplay. I would rater see slightly smaller ships with less guns and more PVP because it wouldn't be such a loss.

All I'm seeing now is a cold war arms race with an occasional skirmish.
