Was thinking about doing a Fantasy Swashbuckling Pirate game. The 7th Sea was mentioned by some folks online, but they didn't really give a clear impression if the game was any good.

So for anyone who is familiar with The 7th Sea:

What are your thoughts/impressions?

How is the setting?
- Fun?
- Too complex/simple?
- Sufficient for role playing and interesting character backstories?

How is the game mechanics?

How well do swashbuckling, sorcery/magic, and guns work together in the setting?
