Re: [FMA] Bar Fight

That sounds like an old Yaquinto game, "Swashbuckler". That was one fun 
game ! It had all the swashbuclking moves like flipping tables at 
people, swinging overhead on anything, bashing noggins with beer 
steins... all that good stuff. It had a tavern map and a boarding party 
map.

There was also a scifi flavored variant.

I miss Yaquinto, they put out some good games. Excalibur has some of 
them back in print, but they aren't making any more. Speaking of 
Yaquinto, did anyone ever figure out how to play Timewar ?
