d20 swashbucklers, swords and sorcery

[d12]

Lets say I have my DnD rules down pretty well and now I want to run a short campaign in a sort of Three Muskateers meets Brotherhood of the Wolf meets Last of the Mohicans kind of setting [with magic]. There will be guns and magic and cannons and swords and all that. Heavy armor will probably be rare. Can anyone suggest one or two sourcebooks, websites and/or adventure modules I could use for rules and inspiration? Any suggestions at all? Keep in mind that I've only run plain vannilla DnD at this point. Thanks.

Swashbuckling Adventures would probably be a good place to start (from AEG). Doesn't cover magic, but does address the rest of your points.

http://www.7thsea.com/ has an overview, and there have been a few discussions on this forum about it, too.

It is very, very well done.

Thanks Raptor - that website DOES look great.

I prefer that site to Swashbuckling Adventures big time. I was very disappointed with SA.

That site does indeed rock. Remember, however, that SA, like OA, is really meant to convert a previously existing world. And it does 7th Sea better than 7th Sea did, IMHO.

Thats not terribly bad as far as fencing goes. I'd probably slice all hitpoints in half too... make people think about getting into fights rather than just barging in ala D&D style.

Re: D20 Swashbucklers

I'm looking for some additional suggestions for rules to augment the D20 SA guide as well as the 7th Sea gaming systems.

I've recently started work on a 7th Sea online game (http://www.treyvan.com/~swash) which will use the SA rules as a baseline and then branch out to import some of the 7th Sea D10 R&K system. I'm sure there will be faults with it that I'd like to add other rules from otehr systems for. Any other suggestions?
