I'm still playing "Fire and Sword" with the Ray's group, here's the scoop:

Ray Turney's email is turney_at_....

Dan Quill, the guy who maintained the web site, is dquill_at_.... I think it is still on one of his computers but you'll have to ask him for the IP address. The web site hasn't been updated in years, much to the dismay of the players (like me) in the campaign, but that takes time. We really need to update it, especially the campaign summaries.

The campaigns are still going. They are very Lunar focused, but things are looking bad for the "good guys".

Ray ran a "stop the conspiracy between rebellious Orlanthi and corrupt Lunars and deluded White Moon worshippers" campaign. Most of Sartar slipped out of the grasp of the Empire. The PCs did make a lot of money, largely through "Gem", my Etyries character. At the end she went public on the Glamour stock exchange as Gem.com. (This was during the start of the dot com boom!)

I ran a campaign where a hardline group, disgusted at the "soft", mainline Lunars who "lost Sartar", took over, advocating a larger army and more use of Chaos to achieve victory. There were heroquestmythological  aspects as well, involving the 7 challenges the Goddess faced in her Goddess quest. There was a civil war. In the end, the "moderate" Lunars, aided by the PCs, won out.

Eduardo Horvath ran an offbeat campaign, where our Lunars travelled extensively in the West. Gem.com made lots more money. She is now semi-retired.

Ray ran a campaign where we tried, and basically failed, to prevent Vanch from revolting. Again, a conspiracy between Orlanthi and Lunars, most of them heretical. We did manage to keep Sylila from getting overrun by the Orlanthi army. But when one of the party's heroquests gets named "Operation Deep Doo Doo", things are bad.

Dan Quill is running the current campaign. While the PCs try to figure out strange magic items and some plot to "bind" Jareel, Pentan hordes have overrun the East and an advance group of light horse briefly threatened Glamour.
