Default MWCI rules

How in the world do you guys mount 6 cannons if:

Ships over 720': These ships may carry a maximum of three sidemount cannons with a maximum of two firing cannons covering a specific side. When two cannons are firing into the same quadrant, they must be in separate turrets. All quadrants may be covered.
If I want to arm the rear turret with two guns, that would be illegal, because the cannons are mounted in the SAME turret.

If I rotated the two bow turrets, then I could fire one gun from each turret into any of three quadrants, but that would still only allow me to mount three guns total. Because, in a battleship, firing two cannons from any ONE turret into the same quadrant is not allowed by the rules.

How do you MWCI/ Polarbear guys arm Battleships?

So if I mount three guns in a battleship turret can those guns all be fired off the bow or stern, but not to the side?

c) Yamato, Iowa, Richelieu, Vanguard, and Rodney classes: These ships may carry a maximum of four sidemount cannons with a maximum of two firing cannons covering any specific side. When two cannons are firing into the same quadrant, they may be mounted in a single turret. All quadrants may be covered.
How does an Italian Littorio class BB fit these rules?
Ideally, I would mount 6 cannons in two rotating turrets... but,
a maximum of two firing cannons covering any specific side.
