Just curious – Does anyone play the Armada period, and if so, what rules? Thanks |

Yes, the Renaissance Naval Rules on the old Pete Jones site. |

The Perfect Captain do a nice Spanish Fury series of rules, which includes naval. |

A modified "Grand Fleet Actions on the Age of Sail"; it has a period build for the pre-Ship o' the line era, but frankly fails to distinguish its peculiarities properly. I have been tinkering with adding the (IMHO) inspired sailing rules from "Spanish Fury" or "Galleys & Galleons", but haven't made up my mind. |

Galleys & Galleons was originally conceived with the late 16th century in mind (although it then broadened out to include the century either side…). |

Captaincy, which I wrote, supports this period. I'm running a Battle of Albrolhos scenario at Dundracon this month (in San Ramon, California). We don't have rules for galleys yet, though, only sail. |

Also -- Galleys, Guns, and Glory from my friends at Skull & Crown. Lighter game, focused on the galleys, with wood-printed models. |
