The_Sibelis:
Thought the Jade court was supposed to have a representative sent out in PT?
Second Aristh:
It was kinda weird that the remnants of the Greek pantheon didn't seem to make an appearance. Hades at least still exists, and they're likely not wilting violets against the Fomor.
A lot of the wildfae groups I could see counting themselves officially under Summer or Winter even though they're independent in day-to-day decisions. Basically anyone that Molly tithes wouldn't send anyone.
The rakshasa missing are also surprising. Surely they're Accords members?
Groups from Asian or African mythologies would have also been nice. Even if Jim had to cut down on the Chicago-side forces for BG, Ethniu killing their ambassadors out of hand at the end was an option. It would have hyped her threat and made the world a bit wider.
Second Aristh:
Another thought just occurred to me. We know from Bombshells that the Fomor were aggressively targeting lots of smaller Accords nations to sign non-aggression pacts with them. What if the groups that showed up in PT were just the ones that hadn't yet?

Yeah, I think this is likely. We'll probably see a few of the "missing" groups show up on the Fomor's side in BG, and others might have non-aggression pacts and be staying out of it.
Some of the more localized groups might just not be involved, and therefore not care. Ethniu's Irish, and apparently the Fomor have a major stronghold (maybe even King Corb's?) under the Great Lakes. If the Fomor are basically an Atlantic/Great Lakes power, the Jade Court and the Ukrainian shapeshifter guru and others who are far from the Atlantic coasts might have seen no reason to show up.
I wouldn't assume the rakshasa and loa and all the other ghoul clans and every group of Wyldfae are necessarily on the Accords, either.

Maybe I'm getting mixed up with the rpg, but weren't the Fomor attacking most coastal areas? I forget where it came from, but I was under the impression that Ramirez and Elaine had their hands full with protecting paraneters in California. Was that mentioned in Ghost Story?

River Shoulders and his people are new additions, so possibly. I think the rakshasa are likelier to be on the Accords than not, though.
