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 Captain: Jan de Laucourt
Jan de Laucourt served the Admiralty of the Maze. In 1671, Brandt called him Joan Jacob de Laucourt, when he commanded the newly built Rotterdam ship Zeelandia (44 guns). In 1672, he fought in the Battle of Solebay in the Zeelandia. He not very heavily engaged as his ship had just one man severely wounded and one lightly wounded. Sources:
