This is an ongoing discussion about 17th Century naval wargaming (really, 1620-1720). Part of what is offered are scenarios for games: orders-of-battle, ship lists, battle descriptions, and scenarios for Age of Sail II-Privateers Bounty (a sailing warfare computer simulation/game), suitable scaled for that environment.

Dutch Admiral: Jacob Pieterszoon Tolck
Jacob Pieterszoon Tolck served in the West-Indian Company from 1636 to 1639. He was a commander in the expedition to Portugal and fought in the Battle of Cape St. Vincent in 1641. He served under Vice-Admiral van Lier. In 1641, Jacob Pieterszoon Tolck was a temporary Vice-Admiral. This is from my translation of the short entry in Luc Eekhout's Het Admiralenboek.
