This is something I would like to know as well, My current Lunar is a Tarshite soldier drafted to the Silver Shields in Pavis & would be interested in learning more about Tarsh itself. We have been using a similar idae to Joerg's for Tarsh but they are much more anti Sartarite than his it seems.
Over to our resident Non Bloody Orlanthi expert I believe.
