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.

English Captain: Lewis (Lodwick) Dick
Lewis (or Lodwick) Dick served in the Parliamentarian and Commonwealth navies, holding one appointment in each. In 1644, he commanded the hired merchantman Golden Lion (30 guns, a crew of 135 men, and of 450 tons). He was assigned to the Summer Guard for 1644. From 1653 to 1654, he again commanded the Golden Lion. Perhaps he was her merchant captain.
