Flashing Blades is an old game by FGU (1984). Actions are resolved by throwing a D20 under a characteristic determined by the skill being used.
Damaged are localized.
From memory (and translating back from french to english):
- each round is split in 2 phases.
- each character writes in secret what actions (offensive and/or moves) he is taking in each phase at the beginning of the round, and what kind of offense he is trying to counter most. Most attacks take 1 phase, but some (the fleche for instance, are taking 2).
- each phase is resolved in order, and if the defender guessed right on his opponent attack, he gets a bonus on his defense roll.
- each style gives bonus and malus on the differents weapons and manoeuvers.
