The good Baron dates back to White Bear Red Moon, where he is a 4-5-5 Cavalry counter in the Sartar Free Army, so I don't think he'd be a "Tarsh" supporter, at least not by the time "Argrath" comes along. Whether WW is the straw that breaks the camels back, or he just sees better trade oportunities under "Argrath" than the Lunars, who can say...
