Thanks guys. I did just get Cloak and Dagger but have not gotten the chance to really look over it as I am distracted with Races of Faerūn and Azure Bonds. All the FRCS seems to mention is that the Harpers oppose them.
Does it mention how the Iron Thrones relations are with the Zhentarim? It would seem that the two would be chief rivals in trying to dominate the trade routes from the Moonsea to the Sword Coast.
C&D should have that info about how the two groups don't get along but if it does then I'm pretty positive that LoD does.
Also, Ruins of Zhentil Keep has a couple of sections on the relations between the Iron Throne and the Black Network.

Hmm, I like the Iron Throne. But I haven't heard much about them before this article. Sage, do you know of any other sources that go into detail about this organization?
Cloak & Dagger, the 2 campaign box sets, the FRCS, Lords of Darkness. LoD has the most recent info on them.
There's also one or two tidbits in Forgotten Realms Adventures, Cult of the Dragon, and the 2e Cormyr supplement.

Posted - 09 Jul 2006 : 02:25:31 Melvos Hammerstars, who was breifly named "Hammstar," which I initially thought might be in homage to our very own Wooly one, but was apparently just a typo . . . |

I have the 1e. How much more does the 2e cover over the 1e? Thanks.
A little more since, for awhile, Sembia was off limits for TSR but they did add a bit more in the 2e campaign box set. |

Posted - 08 Jul 2006 : 21:40:21 The Sembia novels? I believe the Forgotten Realms Adventures is the best resource on the cities. The countryside? No idea. |
