What is 7th Sea?

7th Sea is a Swashbuckling and Sorcery Role Playing Game set in Théah and inspired by 17th century Europe.  Alderac Entertainment Group first published 7th Sea in 1999 and the game was discontinued in 2005[1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7th_Sea_(role-playing_game) ].  The game subsequently went out of print, though the books can still be purchased in digital copy[2. http://drivethrurpg.com].  In 2000, 7th Sea won the Origins Award for the Best Roleplaying Game of 1999[3. http://www.originsgamefair.com/awards/1999].

7th Sea, Swashbuckling Adventures... same difference, right?

No and yes, in that order.  7th Sea is an original, d10 role playing game.  Swashbuckling Adventures is the d20 child of 7th Sea.  It's my opinion that Swashbuckling Adventures killed 7th Sea, though credit where it's due, the Swashbuckling Adventure books did include information for both d10 and d20 rule sets.
