The Lone Star Historical Miniatures (LSHM) club's annual wargame convention, MillenniumCon, held every Veterans Day weekend in Austin Texas saw two games of Blood and Plunder. This great skirmish level pirate / age of sail game is a perfect convention game. Easy to learn, fun to play and visually appealing. This is both a land and ship game.
Firelock Games produces the rules, figures, ships and accessories for the game, they also were very generous to provide a figure for every player, a set of the rules for each game winner and gift certificates as prize support. Thank you Firelock Games!!!
Francisco Erize put on a Saturday afternoon game with six players and Tara & Ian ran a Saturday night game.

British sloop raking the beached Spanish bark, revenging their dead landing party; and will seize the bark's treasure. French have landed to loot the church.
