Hi Folks

Following the success of my French Indian Wars project I have now started on the new adventure - Pirates !

I have made a start with an Ainsty boat & the Foundry Horde

Would welcome advice on rules, figures, boats, terrain and other nautical views...first up where can I find some decent 28mm treasure chests !

Please drop by on the blog for progress reports

NOOOOOOOOoOoOOoOoOooooo..... What's going to happen to my FIW inspiration! Say it ain't so Eric.

Oh, well, good luck with your new adventure! I'm sure it will be impressive.

I love the Foundry pirates.
Great pick.
Outstanding boat, can't wait to see it painted.

Lordy! You don't rest on your laurels, do you? Looks very promising.

Great stuff. I picked up a load of pirates from Stu at Col Bill sometime ago. When they will get painted only christ knows.

Make that two of us

As for rules I have just started a campaign using Legends of the High Seas. They are ok, basic but do the job.

For figures you can't go wrong with the Foundry range. If you want to add some government troops look at Front Rank C17th - 18th and take your pick.

For scenic items have a look at Black Cat Bases.

Boats and ships Ainsty, Minimi, or Games of War :

When you say that you have just started a campaign - are you actually gaming or just putting together the components?
