That is an extremely disreputable looking crew.  Their ship seems to be coming along nicely, too.  Well done!

Shiver me timbers!
Fierce and greedy and bloodthirsty and I swear I can see Blackbeard   :o  among this bunch of scurvy dogs!
I wish you enjoy your games!

Lovely collection, Pops , I recognise a lot of the Foundry figures in there, excellent painting. I,m toying with the idea of using Sharp Practice 2 for gaming and would love to see a list for Pirates. I wonder which rules you favour ?

Thanks for the kind words gents.  Snappy always good to hear from you.  I am finally going to play that scenario with Snapcase in Beau Gus Junction - weather is good now and the table has been set in the garage for months.

Belisarius, my problem is I get into a period whole hog, collect, paint, take photos and then sell.  A bad habit - but I intend to try out some rulesets with the pirates and currently have the Osprey rules and another set, name escapes me know.

I have finally settled on the Old West and Pirates - and at current intend to enjoy them for a while and that will be it...  I hope :)
