Okay, I have seen some really silly deployment of heavy gunners lately. This is especially the case with high ranking pirates who deploy 4-5 HG's and 2-4 WD. I want to show you that you are better off with 5 gunners than 1 Hg. Now, the HG is a beast that shouldn't be left at home, but 4 is certainly overkill. 1 or 2 will do the job.
Yes, you can at least 2 star most bases with 4 HG's and 2 WD, but lets look at this for a moment.
Max stats for 1 HG:
Atk: 128 base, plus 11 from...
1 max HG vs 5 max gunners
