Ok, but this maybe violates the rule from page 36 (First broadside).
The first time the ship shoots a broadside, the target takes one more damage token for every three (rounding up) that it should take.
HMS Victory delivers 14 damage tokens with the first double shot broadside , not 16+.
If I fire A alone, I don‘t have the half ruler restriction.
Having read the rules again Sven, I did not find any specific mention either way. the two rules not refering to each other, but it seems strange to me tat if a crew load one of the balls carefully enough to do extra damage the other ball from the same gun should not do the same damage. I hope some other member will come along and sort out this conundrum before we have to appeal to Andrea to arbitrate. Looks as if the Port might have to be on me again at Donny this year.

The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
