Group Lion will be crossing the frozen waters of The Moonsea on sleds, attacking from the bayside. This group's orders are as follows:

• Establish a beachhead and draw Vorgansharax's troops away form Valjevo Castle, allowing Group Broadsword direct access to the dragon's lair.

• Secure the town district-by-district, rescuing civilians and capturing key locations. Expect heavy resistance.

• A magic thicket of vines and brambles surrounds Old Phlan, making it impossible to enter. Group Eagle has orders to burn the thicket with fire bombs. If they succeed, Group Lion can liberate Old Phlan.

• When the bay is secure, a chosen group will relight hte beacon on Sokol Keep to signal Group Eagle to destroy the Stojanow Gate to open a line of supply directly into the dragon's lair.

• Finally, Group Lion is tasked with entering the cursed Valhingen Graveyard to help local acolytes of Kelemvor revive Doomguide Glandon from the dead, as his knowledge of the catacombs beneath town is vital to helping Group Broadsword sneak undetected into the dragon's lair.
