Better question would be...where does the gunner use his skills?
Is he sitting in a chair connected to the turret (ala Star Wars IV)?
Is he at a computer display on the bridge?
Or is he manning a PC and a monitor near the turret?
I realize the Star Wars version of swiveling in a chair and aiming your pulse laser is a bit unrealistic, given the distances of most space combat and the simple fact that computer programs are much more capable due to targeting specific programs.
But, I just cant seem to form a mental picture of what a gunner would look like during combat...so I would love to hear your scenarios.
Thanks,
