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.

Ron van Maanen says that Hendrick Jansz Camp commanded the Wapen van Nassau in early 1653
Hendrick Jansz Camp is one of the few captains mentioned by name in Ron van Maanen's list. Ron says that Hendrick Jansz Camp commanded the ship called Wapen van Nassau (130ft x 32ft x 12ft, 7ft height between decks). The ship was also known as the Wapen van Friesland. That differs from what the researcher who contributed to De Sneuper wrote. He calls that ship the Groningen (36 guns).
