[QUOTE="mmu1, post: 1027249, member: 319"] Umm... An army from Waterdeep was led into the [i]Anauroch[/i]? That's 400 miles away. What were they doing there in the first place? Why go fight someone who hasn't even managed to get through the Silver Marches? Any kind of plot involving the Zhents physically sending an army to Waterdeep is not going to work without a lot of very blatant "hand waves". The distances are too great, and there are too many nations hostile to the Zhents in the way for the army to ever get there without first occupying and controlling much of the area between Zhentil Keep and Waterdeep. For anything like this to ever happen, it'd take a massive war that'd take years and completely reshape the face of Faerun... It'd take one hell of a war for the Zhents to take Cormyr, or one of the smaller cities in the Silver Marches, never mind Waterdeep. [/QUOTE]
