Directors' ships armaments

If we were to make a generalization about Dutch Directors' ship armaments in 1652 and 1653, based on what we know, we would say that they had a lower tier of 8pdrs and 12pdrs, or in some cases, 12pdrs and 18pdrs or 24pdrs. The quarterdeck seems to have typically been armed with 6pdrs and there are the ubiquitous 2-3pdr guns, perhaps on the forecastle, or maybe on the poop. There were some of the largest ships which had variations on this pattern. They may well have had nearly a complete upper tier armed with 6pdrs, with an unarmed waist. These are some example ships (all are Amsterdam Directors' ships):
