Recel is the name used for export games. The same company made a domestic version as Petaco's 1979 'Swashbuckler'. The term "swashbuckler" originated in the 16th century and refers to a boastful and blustering swordsman. The flyer makes a reference to D'Artagnan, actually Charles de Batz-Castelmore, Comte d'Artagnan (c. 1611-1673), whose life was the basis for a character in the Alexandre Dumas novel The Three Musketeers.
