I don't know, but I just ordered the whole set!  Along with the Daredevils pulp stuff they had and Heart of Oak!

Hopefully Flashing Blades will work well with my 40mm Eureka stuff I am picking up at Historicon!

Flashing Blades combat uses a secret choice from the range of actions that each participant has available to them. Results are then compared. Getting wounded is very nasty.

Daredevils is (like Bushido) a pared down Aftermath and is an excellent game. The supplements are some of the best pulp scenarios/campaigns anywhere particularly Deadly Coins.
