In this post I collect civilians and other miniatures that are great additions for wargames in a 17th/18th century pirate setting.
When I first started pirate gaming in 2008 I compiled a list of manufacturers of pirate miniatures which I still keep updated to this day. In order to properly flesh out your games, however, you will want more than scurvy sea dogs: From all sorts of civilians such as farmers, noble ladies and children, to dock workers to slaves there are lots of miniatures that can enhance your games. The list below contains miniatures from various manufacturers and ranges that are suitable for pirate games during the 17th and 18th century.

"If you hear a voice within you say, 'You cannot paint', then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced."
