No, I'm not posting a Swashbuckling Risus setting... well, not yet anyway. But Dr-Rotwang has made a great start of it with SIX awesome Risus characters that are just begging to be played in a convention game or one-shot. Failing that, I may steal a few for my Pirates vs. Vampires game.
Hats off to Dr-Rotwang (of I Waste The Buddha With My Crossbow) for continuing to support our favorite Beer & Pretzels RPG.

Awesomely juicy find!
I'll have to dust off my copies of the Three and Four Musketeers.
For swashbuckling ambiance and ideas here's Dueling Blades, which we used in our SW/Traveller game for light saber duels.

PDQ# natch.
and if he can pick up a copy GURPS Swashbucklers cheap.
I've been fleshing out a Risus version of Elizabethulhu with swordplay on my mind; I know the guys will want a crunchier melee system.
@Nero: Thanks for the Griffon link. I have some of their stuff but I definitely want to download more!
And I *love* PDQ. Someday I hope to play it.
I've run PDQ a few times with my current group. They will use character generation and task resolution 'as is'; I have to add crunchier D6 tactical rules for combat, though.
I hope to make a list cool fencing maneuvers that fit in the normal upshift/downshift mechanics. I need to re-read PDQ#.
While I was surfing for ambiance for Risus Elizabethulhu I found this link for two sets of house rules for Frank Chadwick's En Garde!
