Hi, I'm having a very hard time finding SJ rules online. What are the official rules for how many weapons you can cram onto a ship?

Thanks!

IIRC, weapons take up the ships cargo tonnage.
Hm, I'm not sure off hand, but I THINK it's

Light weapon = 1 ton
Medium = 2 tons
heavy = 4 tons

Correct. According to WCC, a ship can have up to 1/2 its tonnage in weapons, with the weapons eating up space as you put up above. Exceptions, of course, for odd weapons like bombards, greekfire projectors, and other like weapons.
