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: Wolphert van Brederode
Wolphert van Brederode served the Admiralty of Amsterdam. In June 1652, his ship and that of Evert Anthonissen were sent to convoy corn ships to Muscovy. He commanded the ship Hoop (24 guns and a crew of 80 men). On 29 October, he was under orders with Marten Schaeff (Vice-Admiral), Jan Janszoon Lapper, Pieter van Zalingen, Hendrick Huyskens, and Cornelis Janszoon Poort, to convoy East Indiamen into the Sound and to protect them from harm. By March of 1653, his ship had been paid off. Sources:
