The old Tir Tairngire book only has one chapter dedicated to politics, all the rest is day-to-day life in an Elven Fascist wonderland. Some of the material there may (or may not) be out of date in 2073, though, because of what may (or may not) have changed in everyday living from the coup. I know that in my head, lifestyles don't change that fast even following legislation (it's not like the real-life Civil Rights Act magically ended racism, right?), so much of the material is still on-target.

And, just as an aside, I'm actually kind of with you, there. I dig the Immortal Elves as much as the next guy (I guess), but it was always the "street level view" of such a fucked-up society that I found appealing. The genuine beliefs of the everyday Peace Force member, how being raised/indoctrinated in a culture like that affects people when they find themselves outside of that culture, yadda yadda yadda. I like the Tir more than I liked the Princes.

Hmm. . . . I'm going to need to pick that up sometime. I wonder if any of my local shops have it.

Same reasoning, opposite direction. I had my team chasing their mark across downtown Denver in the middle of a war by the treaty nations to displace Ghostwalker.

Amazon's got 'em starting at about $7, looks like. That's not too bad, for one of the Findley books from back in '93.

Ironically, I'm not actually doin' any Tir stuff, myself. I'm exchanging lots of emails with the guys who are, there's a bunch of brainstorming going on...but I've managed to busy myself with other stuff, so far. Adepts, Ancients, espionage; there's plenty of Shadowrun to go around.

...close, actually, it was The Trashmen.
