Where can I go, or what should I read, to learn more about the 'mysterious
Nigthwraith stirke' mentioned on page 36 of Target: Smuggler's Havens? I've
heard it referred to in a few other sources and I think it's even in the
history, but are there any details out there?

Not a blessed one. It's one of those 'Make It Up Yourself' things.
So it could be a Horror/Immortal Elf/Dragon hybrid that flew each
plane remotely and turned them into bottles of fizzy soda pop
afterwards to cover it up, if you want.

That's plausible... what do you think their eyes looked like? =)

In my little Shadowrun pocket world, there's a secret society in Britain
that has been around for centuries, and is currently led by the Goblin King,
the former king of England who apparently died under mysterious
circumstances (See the London sourcebook). Sort of a blend of Labyrinth and
the Freemasons, with a bit of Arthurian mythos thrown in. Anyway, they
aren't really good or bad, but they do have their own agenda, and they have
power in a lot of places. They were able to slip out a bunch of bombers to
strike at predetermined targets then return them and make it lok like they
were never gone.

According to Shane/Eleanor/Amy, on Sun, 04 Feb 2001 the word on the street
was...

This strike was mentioned as early as the history chapter in the SR1 main
rules, and little to no more details have been given since then. The only
thing I can think of is the paragraph and a half on page 27 of the Germany
Sourcebook, and the only thing that does is increase the possibilities,
because it adds that a commando strike and a Matrix attack occurred at the
same time as the bomber raids.

The thing is that FASA didn't work out the details of many things they
wrote into SR's history, so even they can't really answer questions like
this one without making it up on the spot.
