Sorry if this has been ask, but is there a list of 28mm miniatures for use in pirate games?

I'm contemplating backing the Blood & Plunder kickstarter, just not sure at what level yet.

I have the six Reaper Bones Pirates from the kickstarter painted up. I believe they have a few others as well. I think I'll paint up the townsfolk too.

Old Glory has packs of 30, but these are 25mm. Are they close enough?

I see there's some nice ones from Black Scorpion.

The Warmachine's Merc faction has Sea Dogs.

BTW, I looked at Freebooter's Fate, but those are 30mm.

Wargames Foundry has a really nice range that looks compatible with the Blood & Plunder miniatures.

Dixon, Irregular, Redoubt, Artizan, Crusader, Brigade, and Eureka, to name a few. I know there are others, but I can't think of them right now.

Old Glory are sold as 25mm but are perfectly suitable with 28mm.

This may be of help: link It's been around for quite a few years so I don't know how current it is.

I have a lot of the Brigade Games pirates, they will complement the B&P figures nicely.

Here you go. Companies making pirates have the word 'pirates' after them!

Galloping Major has some nice generic 18th Century sailors. I got about 30 of them that I plan on using as Royal Navy sailors, I have 4 28mm ships( 2 sloops, a Brigantine and a Frigate), and 4 starter boxes coming from the Blood and Plunder Kickstarter of English Buccaneers and Spanish Costa Garda that will be my pirate crews

I also have about 50 random Front Rank Miniatures Flintlock Musketeers, I'm gonna use as early Royal Marines (1664-1685) and Generic English Militia (I got two sets of drummers, sergeants, officers and Standard carrier to add to the troops) You could get a Special Deal Pack of 24 mixed poses troops and it's cheaper than buying random models
