Hola!

He descubierto a esta compañía, que va a hacer un wargame de escaramuzas ambientado en el Caribe español del siglo XVII, con reglas para luchar en tierra, con barcos y mixto en "operaciones anfibias". Las minis también me parecen chulas: han dicho que las figuras serán de metal y los barcos de una resina ligera. Pongo lo que han puesto en la página de facebook:

What is Blood and Plunder?
It is a 28mm heroic scale miniature wargame game designed to recreate 17th century skirmish battles during the age of piracy. The battles take place on the Spanish Main on both land and sea.

What sets our game apart?
One of our chief goals while designing Blood and Plunder was to create a game that captures the essence of both land and naval combat respectively while being able to seamlessly transition between the two. This is exactly what we did, and the results are more exciting than we had even realized. Imagine this: you can play one game in a jungle environment with your guerrilla fighters, the next with your 6 guns sloop on the open ocean and the next on the coast, exchanging canon fire with a fortress while you undergo your amphibious assault, all using the same simple and intuitive rule set! Needless to say, the campaign and scenario possibilities that accompany this are virtually endless.

Blood and Plunder uses a card driven, player controlled, unit based activation system. What does that mean?
Here is the gist: each player starts the game with a traditional 52 card deck. At the beginning of each round players draw a hand based on the number of units under their control (e.g., 4 units = 4 cards). To activate their units, each player chooses a card from their hand and reveals it simultaneously. The cards will then determine two things: which player’s unit activates first and the amount of actions the units receive based on their experience rating. It is important to note that the more priority your card gives in turn order, the less actions your unit is likely to receive. The result is an initiative system which gives the game a natural flow and greater strategic depth. Units are rated for experience and such things as fighting and shooting ability as well as their resolve to stay in combat. Many rules unique to the units also add a layer of historical accuracy.

We are proud to say that our team has produced the highest quality miniatures in the genre. The aesthetic quality of our product speaks for itself, but that’s only the tip of the iceberg. The historical accuracy of our models is unparalleled. Everything from the types of weapons that each nation used to the floppiness of the hats has been deeply scrutinized by world renown historian Benerson Little (Black Sails, History Chanel) to make sure that the illusion of a 17th century battle happening on your table top is never broken. We currently have miniatures for troops and ships and are working on various types of terrain, including fortifications.
