A while ago at a convention, I came across the prettiest game that I have seen in a while. This game was Blood & Plunder by Firelock Games. After playing, I reached out to Firelock Games and they sent me a Blood & Plunder French Nation Bundle.
Above is part of the French Nation Bundle. It also came with a Sloop Sailing Ship. |
The Bundle comes with 25 French Nation Miniatures, a Sloop Sailing Ship, and a deck of French Nation Playing Cards. They also sent along a rule book for me to read through.
The minis within all look very nice. Below is how they came out of the box – without any of the flashing removed.
The French Captain / Commander. |
8 Flibustiers. These guys are good at shooting and love to get in close for a fight. |
8 Milice des Caraïbes. These are your standard infantry with plug style bayonet. |
4 Marins. These sailors love to get in on a close quarters battle. |
4 Boucaniers. These are the French Sharpshooters. |
Also in the Bundle is a Sloop.
The Sloop comes with a card, Mast, Rigging Materials and Cannons. |
The ship looks great even before it is painted. |
Lots of space on this boat and this is the smallest ship that Firelock Games makes at this point. |
I am really looking forward to seeing how good this ship will look once it gets painted. I still haven’t decided whether I am going to give these to a commission painter or do them myself. Right now, I am leaning towards a commission painter as I really want these models to look gorgeous as it is gorgeous minis that drew me to this game!

In addition to the Bundle, Firelock Games sent me a copy of the rulebook and this book is well produced.

I would like to thank Firelock Games for sending along this French Starter Bundle. It is excellent and I am really enjoying looking at what is in their newest Kickstarter campaign.
Until next time, Happy Gaming Everyone!!!
