Its a lovely game system and the easy-to-assemble models are lovely.

Although for pirates, you might consider doing some Barbary types using the recently released xebecs from Minairons (https://minairons.eu/en/1-600-scale-ships/1226-1600-xebec-8436545322864.html). That would fit in well with brig and sloops for the Napoleonic era. I also think the idea of Napoleonic privateers is a good one. That would allow you to do French and Americans privateers and a reason for those ships to try to escape. But you may need to find some merchants too.
