(Kickstarter) Corsairs of Cthulhu by New Comet Games

I don't know what it is, but most of the 7th Edition Call of Cthulhu stuff, licensed or not, just isn't hitting by vibe.  Corsairs of Cthulhu by New Comet Games may correct that. 

From the Kickstarter:
Corsairs of Cthulhu is a rules and setting supplement to the Call of Cthulhu role-playing game and focuses on the period between 1650 and 1730 CE. Your keeper can set up your investigators as crew on a pirate or privateer ship, freelancers in one of the Caribbean ports who love the gold doubloon more than a foreign governments rule, or even provide your investigators with their own ship. Working together the investigators must face evil Mythos, real and imagined. Curses left by ancient civilizations and hidden nightmares around the world.

$25 for the pdf, $50 for the book, $60 for both.

(Kickstarter) Blood & Plunder: Raise the Black by Firelock Games

Firelock Games is expanding their Blood & Plunder rules and minis into the 18th Century with a Kickstarter, Blood & Plunder: Raise the Black.

The campaign includes options for the Raise the Black expansion rules, unit cards, and a Box of Plunder (which expands as the Kickstarter grows), but the main focus looks to new 2-Player Starter Set.

The 18th Century line will use hard multi-part plastic kits for figures and for the ships, creating more options. 

To be honest, I still haven't jumped onto the original rules, but I've come to appreciate high quality boxed sets of plastic figs to be an acceptable price point.  We'll see where I am at the beginning of October.
