The Energy Net is very useful, but if you want more damage, then cannons or lancers can go there instead, the Arcturian Fire is quite good, but has an anti synergy with the net as one destroys sails, and the other relies on enemy sails to drain energy. Additionally, the bank for the Energy Net and Arcturian Fire also face forward.

Actually, the front two from that bank face forward, so having two extra long range Plasma Cannons facing forward can be very useful. Some good choices are to equip what appears to be the broadside heavy cannons as Plasma Cannons. There are many options on what weapons to equip the Man of War with.

The frontal volley of this ship is in fact the most powerful attack of any given side for any ship in the game. The Procyon Man of War is a large ship with enormous frontal firepower.
