Fort St Elmo would be a great addition. The Spanish Conquistadors fit the time frame. In the book The Great Sige of Malta by Ernle Bradford he described the Spanish contingent sent by the King Spain looking like conquistadors.

I just received the Malt 01, 02, 10 and 11 figures, and they are great figures. I am looking forward to the future releases. I also picked up CQ-17 Spanish Conquistador Pikemen. They will fit in quite well as the Spanish troops that helped defend Malta. I have also compared them to the First...
