Has anyone seen the web enhancement for City of Splendors: Waterdeep? The 124 supplement mentions that Daggerford is detailed in a web enhancement, but I can't find any mention of it on the WotC site.
Like some others on the boards, AoW has rekindled my creative flame and I've decided to run a game after being away for many years. I am doing a play-by-post game with some friends, and they've requested that this be a FR campaign. Since I've been away for awhile, I don't really have the strong attachment to Daggerford and don't mind doing the conversion, so bringing hard times to the town wasn't a problem for me.
I've gleened all the information I can from the older sources and have a pretty good handle on the conversion from Diamond Lake to Daggerford, but I'd like more recent in-game information before I push forward with the adventure. If anyone has seen this web enhancement, I'd appreciate being pointed to it. Thanks!

It hasn't been posted yet, although it is written. The main focus is detailing the "surrounding region". None of it specifically is needed for gameplay in the AoW, but it might be useful for the DM trying to come up with side adventures.
I'd point out that the web enhancements seem to be running a month or two behind the products in terms of publication and that we haven't seen the Champions of Ruin WE yet (which I'd expect to see first).

I could be mistaken, but I think the reference was to the North boxed set that is available for download from WOTC archives in the downloads section. There is a whole booklet in that boxed set that details Daggerford.

Thanks very much, Eric. I'm really impressed with how well you're keeping up with these message boards. I'll wait patiently for the WE. I was just hoping it would help me give the adventure more context for the players. However, the way the FR conversion information was woven into the backstory of Daggerford as presented in earlier products, like "The North" went a long way toward that, as well.
For example, a note on Lady Bronwyn's description in "The North" mentions that she carried a magical dagger, rumored be the very dagger that gave Daggerford its name. I decided that this was an excellent opportunity to bring an "Item of Legacy" into play...and one that may have powers involving lizardfolk, which would tie into future adventures in the path, if I'm not mistaken.
One more question...I'm not sure if you are able to answer this, but does the assassination of the ducal family tie directly into the adventure path, or was that just the device used to set up Daggerford's decline? I've got some ideas about the events surrounding that, but I want to make sure I don't overdevelop something that will have to change when later adventures reveal a different story. Thanks, again!

Cool idea.

It was a device to set up the decline.
That said, I figured it could be grist for a bunch of side adventures invoving the town council. Depending on who you decide the culprit is, it may be tightly coupled or unrelated to the Age of Worms arc, with lots of red herrings either way.
