well, long story short i watched shaun of the dead alot over the past week, and i was looking at the rules for the games day conversion contest, and i saw that there was an option to convert zombie pirates, and with shaun of the dead rekindling my love of zombies put togeather with my love of pirates, i just HAD to make an army.

Hmmm . . . Shaun of the Dead meets Pirates of the Carribean! I like it!
As for the list: I can tell you now that it is TOO FRAGILE! You have way too many Duellists! Throw in a unit or two of Pikemen or Norse Berzerkers, as otherwise, you have only the Slayers and the Ogres to provide any real hth clout.
One small problem duellists are allowed either pistols, AHW or shields not a mix of. And I have one word to describe the idea.....................NO
yeah i know, that was a mistake on my part ('twas a friday, my brain had shut down for its weekend break)
For the Captain's name, use the one in Pirates of the Caribean (can't remember at the moment but you can google it). ^_^
You might wanna consider adding a Maneater (the Pirate model) and Leadbelchers (carrying the ship's cannons). ;)
