I was wondering what fantasy pirate ruled you would recommend?

I am looking for a ruleset for 28mm figs that are pirate themed but which has a elements of fantasy in it…

I am currently using Freebooter's Fate.
Are there any other you could recommend?

Thanks!

Flashing Steel from Ganesha Games; as I recall it doesn't have fantasy in the core rules, but pretty much anything from Song of Blades and Heroes could be ported over to it. Ganesha Games are my go-to's for most things.

I like Pirates from Scale Creep/ Flagship Games. Plenty of detail but still easy to pick up and play.

D&D 4th edition was basically a 28mm fantasy skirmish game. Lots of Pirate supplements out there for it.

I second Pirates! from Scale Creep, but I'm friends with the Flagship Games creators.

I also recommend Pirates! from Flagship Games. I was one of the play testers. The games can be run as historical or fantasy.

En Garde is pretty good, and can have fantasy elements.
Flashing Steel is also good.
