Notes
The More Tales of the Black Widow scenario book mentions the cities of Ravenskral and Budesburg as being the planetary capital and third largest city on the planet,[2] neither of these cities are mentioned again in other source books, with later books such as Historical: War of 3039, Touring the Stars: Hall and even the novel Embers of War establish Harney as the capital city.
