Page three is "Scenario III (the previous two having been lost .. .slc): The entire 3rd Year of the Blackmoor Campeign..." and details the "Great War" otherwise known as the 2nd coot invasion.

Ah, that clarifies quite a few things. The FFC is much less clear on this with the "NPC section" following a brief overview of the campaign as a whole. -Havard
I'm not sure if we are on the same page so I'll clarify. The FFC says "Blackmoor's More Infamouse Characters: Giving a breakdown on the sheets handed out to the players..."
Further Down it says "Krey turned traitor and joined Soukup... during the first year."
Since the "good guys" player breakdown includes Krey still as a good guy it must be from the first year.
The "bad guys" (infamous characters) has a "table of contents" that leaves out the "good guy" entries of the Blue Rider, Svenny, Mello and the Bishop. These four appear to be later (1973/74) additons/handouts.
Those "bad Guys" listed in the "table of contenets" might well date to the first year handout, but could be from 1972. The fact that they are not very D&D compatible indicates they couldn't be any more recent since Gary had already written the playtest D&D rules and Dave was using them.
