Does anyone have a resource of a PDF (or other electronic format) of the post-spellplague realms? |

-The Sea of Fallen Stars is now mostly devoid of Aquatic Elven settlements asides for Myth Nantar as well. |

Bad time to mention that the sea receded because the Spellplague caused the ground to collapse into the Underdark, leading the Inner Sea to drain into the new 'hole in the ground'. It's also the home of the Aboleth Sovereignty. |

So, it's all because the sea receded that an easier avenue west (south-west really) appeared? Wunderbar. Well... that's still better than most other Shattered Realms reasons. |

The Stormhorns still go right up to sea. The poster map that was included in the FRCG is more artistic than accurate (which is unfortunate, yes). May I recommend you take a look at the map included in this article Artemel, for a more accurate depiction of Cormyr's environs.

-Let's not forget, either, there are a couple of "mistakes" and/or "mistranslations" on the 4e map. Places that actually haven't shifted location appear to have done so on the map provided. |

Now... there is a plains area between the south end of the Storm Horns and the sea. So, now, they just marched an army west from Suzail if they wanted, and I suppose they did from what I gleaned from $e.
Keep in mind that in the Shattered Realms, the Sea of Fallen Stars is smaller than it used to be. It partially drained away. That would explain the plain you refer to, without the mountains being relocated. |

Perhaps you're misreading something Artemel. The Stormhorns are still in the same location they always were. |

Huh, wonderful how the mountain chains just moved in some cases. Like the Storm Horns no longer block the way westward for Cormyr, just in time for them to expand westward. =p |
