Camperdown: Men & Machines
Records on Dutch ship design are incomplete or not readily accessible, so this table is going to start as largely boilerplate. The Dutch have never been mentioned to me by Ares as a priority, but I think if we can boil the Must Haves of the Dutch force at Camperdown, and the Danish fleet at Copenhagen, into a handful of sculpts each it just might be possible, assuming the management will exists, to slipstream them into future waves a sculpt or two at a time. Trafalgar will probably almost always be driving the bus, though, with Nile and 1812 frigate-duels also in the "priority" tier, so if they come it probably won't be fast until we have those three groups mostly petered out.

Off the bat we can forget about little Haasje ever showing up, unless done as a Shapeways model and unofficial card.

Note: Within a given rating, ships not identified to a class or design are first, then the ones I've identified.
Side Comment: The unclassified 56's and most others of their kind taken by the RN all cluster at very similar dimensions, and perhaps might fit as one sculpt. The two Brakels are about four feet longer.
