About Swashbuckle, from BoardGameGeek:
Set sail with Swashbuckle, where piracy meets strategy and showmanship. Gather your finest mates and duel using dynamic Action and Treasure cards to claim the richest treasures. Who will get the most Treasure points? Who will find themselves stranded on the Island? Your crew will be clamoring for more! Ready yourselves for an epic journey, take the helm, and Chart Your Fate like never before in this thrilling pirate card game.
In Swashbuckle, you will compete with fellow pirates to be the first to gain five Treasure points. Treasure points are earned by purchasing Treasure cards using Coin cards, while Action cards help you obtain more Coin cards and attack other pirates.
Each pirate's turn has three phases. The first is the Draw phase, where you will draw either a Coin card or two Action cards. The next phase is the Market phase, where you can cash in your Coin cards if you have enough to purchase Treasure cards. The final phase of each turn is the Action phase, where you can play up to two Action cards. You cannot return to the Market phase on your turn once you begin playing Action cards, unless you have a Ship card that allows it.
Treasure cards gain you points required to win the game and may also grant you powers to boost your Action cards. Treasure card powers may be one-time or enduring for as long as you hold that card. But beware, as fellow pirates might steal your powers to take them for their own...
The final danger that you must navigate throughout the game is the Deserted Island. If you run out of Action Cards, you will be forced to the Island. Once on the Deserted Island, you cannot play cards until you have rolled the dice and earned your way back into the game!
The game ends when one pirate has gained five Treasure points on their turn to become the ultimate Swashbuckler. To compete and win on the high seas, a pirate must combine the flair, bravado, and strategy of a true buccaneer to chart their fate into pirate legend.
