The issue of stationary targets is interesting, the range changes when firing on a moving target so its more difficult to acquire but on the other hand the gun platform of a stationary vessel is steadier which should improve accuracy. I would certainly give the shore guns some sort of bonus though. There way in which each Brazilian commanders interpreted their order was interesting, some were overly aggressive to the point of being out of control where others seemed to hold back after coming under fire from long range field artillery. Perhaps each ships commander (apart from the flagship) should be given a personality card on how they would react under certain conditions. I don't think that it would alter the outcome but it would make the game interesting and less predictable.

Have you ever tried to use plan "A" and take out some of the Brazilian ships as their crews slept ashore during the night then fight the battle on more even terms.
