I found a good site that has some info on the different flags Morgan used....some of which I have in use already...
http://www.benersonlittle.com/_i___i__center_how_history_s_greatest_pirates_pillaged__plundered____br_and_got_a_93845.htm
Not sure if the hyperlink will work... if not just paste into browser.
The only flag I am having trouble finding is a green one which I have read that red and green flags were part of Morgan’s forces. I am leaning toward just using the green version of the English ensign if I can’t find an alternative.
Anyone know of a possible green flag used by Morgan?

Seeing the mention of slaves amongst the Spanish militia, should some of them be even worse dressed/equipped?
The only Caribbean slave figures I'm aware of are the Trent ones, although much later date:
http://northstarfigures.com/list.php?man=60&cat=171&sub=245&page=1
but perhaps a single pack of the slaves with armes blanche and a pack with muskets could add enough variety
Otherwise I seem to recall someone had some figures for 17th century Brazilian plantations a few years ago (but cannot recall who)

I have looked at those... on the fence though with the Blood and Plunder figures made for this. I really like Foundry but their almost 8 week turn around on shipping is a real pain in the @$$

Sorry I spotted this thread so late. The one contribution that I can make is that the Spanish organized their militia in racial companies. There were white, negro, Indian, mestizo, and mulatto companies.

Not late at all... I had read the same regarding the Spanish forces in Panama. There are a couple of choices in the Foundry line and some dedicated figures for this in the Blood and Plunder side.
As we are approaching the 349th anniversary of the Panama raid I need to get at least some of them on the field!
