(abridged logs detailing work determining timeline)

Preliminary Estimates

PBF

  • Session Start: Sat Sep 30 03:15:19 2006
  • Session Ident: LGN_Raven
  • [03:15] Session Ident: LGN_Raven (Khan_Micha@scorbolt.rh.rit.edu)
  • [03:31] <Vaughan99> In some cases you can feel free to determine upper and lower limits (i.e. 3-6 days, rather than 4.5 days, ish)
  • [03:32] <Vaughan99> (Also, if multiple missions take place on the one day, that's fine, too)
  • [03:32] <LGN_Raven> Starting with PBF Tour 1
  • [03:32] <LGN_Raven> Mission 1.01 is 'day one' for PBF
  • [03:33] <LGN_Raven> PBF 1.02 would occur easily within hours of PBF 1.01; recon is made, refugees are transporting, Imperials are attacking... Easily within 6 hours.
  • [03:33] <LGN_Raven> PBF 1.03 would occur directly following 1.02
  • [03:33] <LGN_Raven> as in, directly
  • [03:33] <LGN_Raven> as in, 1.03 could almost start while 1.02 is ongoing
  • [03:34] <LGN_Raven> 1.04; 1-3 hours after 1.03
  • [03:35] <LGN_Raven> 1.05: 2-3 days after 1.04; giving the Imperials time to rebound from their failed strike, and minor repairs to be made to the Emancipator
  • [03:35] <LGN_Raven> 1.06: 4 days after 1.05
  • [03:36] <LGN_Raven> 1.07: 1 Day after 1.06
  • [03:36] <LGN_Raven> 1.08: 2 Days, 12 hours after 1.07 (That is very specific, I know; but I have a reason for it :P)
  • [03:37] <LGN_Raven> Reason being
  • [03:37] <LGN_Raven> 3 days 12 hours (starting at 1.06, after the Imperials realize the RS is trying to improve relations with the planet Yridia 9) is the approximate time to setup prefab space installations
  • [03:38] <LGN_Raven> 1.09: 1 Day after 1.08
  • [03:38] <LGN_Raven> 1.10: 3 Days after 1.09
  • [03:38] <LGN_Raven> 1.11: Immediately after 1.10 (Reason being: Our diplomatic summit with the government of Yridia 9 was a total success. Work to establish a permanent RS presence in the system is to begin immediatley.)
  • [03:39] <LGN_Raven> 1.12: Hours after 1.11; probably 6.
  • [03:40] <LGN_Raven> 2.01: I'm not sure; how long IC did the minos cluster conflict last?
  • [03:41] <Vaughan99> I'll match up the dates
  • [03:41] <Vaughan99> June 1999 Minos Cluster Conflict ends.
  • [03:42] <Vaughan99> PBF412 ended on the 30th of June, 1999
  • [03:42] <Vaughan99> BOOM, ended at the same time
  • [03:42] <LGN_Raven> kk
  • [03:42] <LGN_Raven> 2.01 takes place 1 week after 1.12 then
  • [03:43] <LGN_Raven> Now, right here; in your big ass word file
  • [03:43] <LGN_Raven> you start mixing entries
  • [03:43] <LGN_Raven> I'm going to skip the mixed entries, and continue with the PBF
  • [03:43] <Vaughan99> Good plan
  • [03:43] <Vaughan99> My idea is to work out the individual campaigns per fleet
  • [03:43] <Vaughan99> Then try and superimpose them all together afterwards
  • [03:43] <LGN_Raven> 2.02: Hours after 2.01
  • [03:44] <LGN_Raven> 2.03: 2 days after 2.02
  • [03:44] <LGN_Raven> 2.04: Immediately after 2.03; for obvious reasons
  • [03:45] <LGN_Raven> 2.05: 1 Day after 2.04
  • [03:46] <LGN_Raven> 2.06: 1 Day after 2.05
  • [03:46] <LGN_Raven> 2.07: Immediately after 2.06
  • [03:46] <LGN_Raven> 2.08: 5 Days after 2.07
  • [03:47] <LGN_Raven> 2.09: 3 Days after 2.08
  • [03:47] <LGN_Raven> 2.10: 1 Day after 2.09
  • [03:48] <LGN_Raven> 2.11: 2 Days after 2.10
  • [03:49] <LGN_Raven> 2.12: 12 Hours after 2.11
  • [03:49] <LGN_Raven> 3.01: Immediately after 2.12; most likely a few hours.
  • [03:50] <LGN_Raven> 3.02: Immediately after 3.01; we can say that 2.12, 3.01, and 3.02 are a failed Imperial strike at RS interests to try to drive them out, hense the immediacy of the missions
  • [03:51] <LGN_Raven> 3.03: 2 Days after 3.02
  • [03:51] <LGN_Raven> 3.04: 3 Days after 3.03
  • [03:52] <LGN_Raven> 3.05 (Which makes me sad... 2 ISDs and 2 FRGs with full fighters can't kill a CRS? Retarded): 2 Days after 3.04
  • [03:53] <Vaughan99> I know -- when it comes to writing up the battle pages, I'll be looking to you and Rekio for help trying to come up with storyline explanations for lapses of logic like that
  • [03:53] <LGN_Raven> 3.06: 10 Days after 3.05; listed on the intro.
  • [03:54] <Vaughan99> Ah, it says 10 days on the STD scene, then 12 days in the briefing
  • [03:54] <LGN_Raven> 3.07: 3 days after 3.06
  • [03:55] <LGN_Raven> 3.08: 1 Day after 3.07
  • [03:56] <LGN_Raven> 3.09: 3 Days after 3.08
  • [03:56] <LGN_Raven> 3.10: 1 Day after 3.09
  • [03:58] <LGN_Raven> 3.11: 1 Day after 3.10
  • [03:58] <LGN_Raven> 3.12: 2 Days after 3.11
  • [04:00] <LGN_Raven> 4.01: 2 Weeks after 3.12
  • [04:00] <Vaughan99> By the way, weeks are 7 days, or 5 days?
  • [04:00] <LGN_Raven> Whatever they are in SW :P
  • [04:00] <LGN_Raven> works for me :P
  • [04:01] <Vaughan99> 5 for SW
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> I usually do 7
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> when I did them for the repair times, I did 7
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> but 10 days
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> is prolly good
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> for that date
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> now that I re-read iut
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> I'll do all things in days from now on
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> nah, I'll just do everything in days
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> 10 days for 4.01
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> 4.02 is Immediately after 4.01
  • [04:01] <LGN_Raven> "Greetings. I appologize for the lack of a break, but we need you to go back into combat."
  • [04:02] <Vaughan99> So the one week between 112 and 201 was seven days, or another number that was rounded up or down?
  • [04:02] <LGN_Raven> 7 days
  • [04:03] <LGN_Raven> 4.03: Hours after 4.02
  • [04:04] <LGN_Raven> 4.04: Immediately after 4.03
  • [04:05] <LGN_Raven> 4.05: 1 Day after 4.04 (That seems right to me, double check it?)
  • [04:06] <Vaughan99> It would have taken a while to get troops and everything ready for an assault, I would think, yeah
  • [04:06] <Vaughan99> But it looks like it happens straight after the discussions
  • [04:07] <LGN_Raven> 4.06: Immediately after 4.05 (Again, check me)
  • [04:09] <LGN_Raven> 4.07: Immediately after 4.06
  • [04:09] <LGN_Raven> er
  • [04:09] <LGN_Raven> change that
  • [04:09] <LGN_Raven> 12 hours after 4.06
  • [04:10] <LGN_Raven> 4.08: 2 days after 4.07
  • [04:12] <LGN_Raven> Check this one for me
  • [04:12] <LGN_Raven> 4.09: 2 weeks after 4.08?
  • [04:12] <LGN_Raven> It's the only mentioned date
  • [04:12] <LGN_Raven> in the narrative
  • [04:12] <LGN_Raven> some freighter 2 weeks after a big ass narrative, blah blah then there's a big ass narrative after it
  • [04:13] <Vaughan99> Oooh
  • [04:13] <Vaughan99> Ooohhh
  • [04:13] <Vaughan99> That freighter 2 weeks later
  • [04:13] <Vaughan99> Is a squadron ITOD attached to the fleet ITOD
  • [04:13] <Vaughan99> It's not that mission, though
  • [04:13] <LGN_Raven> well that's dumb
  • [04:13] * Vaughan99 scratches his head
  • [04:13] <Vaughan99> Yeah, confusing
  • [04:14] <LGN_Raven> is that mission before or after the mention of the freighter?
  • [04:14] <Vaughan99> Before, probably
  • [04:14] <LGN_Raven> So make it 4 days after 4.08
  • [04:14] <Vaughan99> I still have to document the Paladin Squadron ITOD missions yet
  • [04:15] <LGN_Raven> 4.10: 3 days after 4.09
  • [04:17] <LGN_Raven> 4.11: 2 days after 4.10
  • [04:21] <LGN_Raven> 4.12: 5 Days after 4.11
  • [04:22] <LGN_Raven> 5.01: 17 Days after 4.12
  • [04:23] <LGN_Raven> and yes
  • [04:23] <LGN_Raven> I know that's long
  • [04:23] <LGN_Raven> but isn't 5.01 the start of ORW II?
  • [04:23] <Vaughan99> After
  • [04:23] <Vaughan99> It's after the end
  • [04:24] <LGN_Raven> How long was ORW II then?
  • [04:24] <LGN_Raven> is it after ORW I or II?
  • [04:25] <Vaughan99> It's after both
  • [04:25] <Vaughan99> The Cadrel Expanse and Binaural Sector have both been secured
  • [04:25] <LGN_Raven> 5.01: 12 Days after 4.12
  • [04:25] <LGN_Raven> 5.02: 2 Days after 5.01 (Gives PBF time to get setup)
  • [04:27] <LGN_Raven> 5.03: 1 Day after 5.02
  • [04:28] <LGN_Raven> 5.04: 3 days after 5.03
  • [04:30] <LGN_Raven> 5.05: 2 Days after 5.04
  • [04:30] <LGN_Raven> 5.06: 12 hours after 5.05
  • [04:30] <LGN_Raven> 5.07: Immediately after 5.06
  • [04:31] <LGN_Raven> 5.08: Immediately after 5.07 (possible break of a few hours)
  • [04:32] <Vaughan99> There may be some cases where these durations will have to be broken . . . e.g. R2F Tour 8 and 9 . . . there was one point where the wing went for about five months before getting a new mission -- that has to be reflected in the timeline, somehow, but we'll doctor that when we find those horrible gaps
  • [04:32] <LGN_Raven> 5.09: 3 days after 5.08
  • [04:32] <LGN_Raven> These are just in-house estimates of mission to mission time lapses
  • [04:32] <LGN_Raven> they can be easily changed
  • [04:33] <LGN_Raven> I'd recommend against changing any of the 'Immediatelys' though
  • [04:33] <Vaughan99> Yeah, these are a good baseline, from which anomalies can be broken away from
  • [04:33] <Vaughan99> Yeah
  • [04:34] <LGN_Raven> 5.10: 12 hours to 1 day after 5.09
  • [04:35] <LGN_Raven> 5.11: 18 hours (ish) after 5.10
  • [04:35] <LGN_Raven> 5.12: few hours after 5.11
  • [04:35] <LGN_Raven> " The [McGrath] is escorting the capured [Outpost] to a rendevous with the [Windstorm]. Once they arrive, we will withdraw from the Cadrel Expanse."
  • [04:36] <Vaughan99> Oh yeah, the Outpost was a Calamari Cruiser refitted as a mobile weapons factory
  • [04:36] <LGN_Raven> 6.01: What is the approximate hyperspace time from Cadrel to (I know) RS space? 3 days?
  • [04:36] <Vaughan99> It's pretty much right next door
  • [04:37] <Vaughan99> Film-wise, you can get from the Core to Tatooine within mere hours
  • [04:37] <LGN_Raven> Then 6.01 takes place a few hours after 5.12
  • [04:38] <Vaughan99> books-wise, it can take weeks to get frmo the Core to Tatooine
  • [04:39] <LGN_Raven> well if it's right next door
  • [04:39] <Vaughan99> So I really don't know how to go about working out hyperspace travel times :/
  • [04:39] <LGN_Raven> and I noted that 'a few hours' was all spokes got for sleep
  • [04:39] <LGN_Raven> that 6.01 takes place a few hours after 5.12
  • [04:57] <LGN_Raven> PBF 6.02: 1 day after 6.01
  • [04:59] <LGN_Raven> 6.03: 12 hours after 6.02
  • [05:02] <LGN_Raven> 6.04: Hours after 6.03
  • [05:04] <LGN_Raven> 6.05: 4 Days after 6.04
  • [05:04] <LGN_Raven> 6.06: Hours after 6.05
  • [05:06] <LGN_Raven> um
  • [05:07] <LGN_Raven> 6.07: 3 Days after 6.06
  • [05:07] <Vaughan99> Was it a tricky one?
  • [05:08] <LGN_Raven> kinda
  • [05:08] <LGN_Raven> 6.08: 2 Days after 6.07
  • [05:08] <LGN_Raven> 6.09: 1 Week after 6.08 (Check this one, I think it's appropriate because of the change in command)
  • [05:09] <LGN_Raven> 6.10: 2 Days after 6.09
  • [05:09] <Vaughan99> "It's been a while"
  • [05:10] <LGN_Raven> 6.11: 1 Day after 6.10
  • [05:11] <LGN_Raven> 6.12: 1 Day after 6.11
  • [05:11] <Vaughan99> The gap between 612 and 701 could be fairly extensive, as the entire PBF is repairing and recovering from the campaign against the Imperial task force
  • [05:12] <LGN_Raven> 23 days
  • [05:12] <LGN_Raven> Judging by the damage done and Josh's IC comment about still trying to get used to his desk


R2F

  • [05:13] <Vaughan99> Now, R2F will be a bit tricky, as there are a few missing missions from the records
  • [05:13] <Vaughan99> Mostly towards the start
  • [05:14] <Vaughan99> So we'll have to pretend there was a mission there (which there was), and try to infer what kind of scenario that might have been
  • [05:15] <LGN_Raven> Going back to the top then
  • [05:15] <LGN_Raven> Retribution
  • [05:15] <LGN_Raven> Is there anything before 4.XX?
  • [05:15] <Vaughan99> No
  • [05:16] <Vaughan99> It's assumed there were some tours before that
  • [05:16] <LGN_Raven> And where's 4.01?
  • [05:16] <Vaughan99> But no-one knows what they were or where they are
  • [05:16] <Vaughan99> Kaz doubts they existed in any real form
  • [05:16] <Vaughan99> It's gone :(
  • [05:16] <Vaughan99> Records are rather incomplete from that time
  • [05:16] <Vaughan99> 401 and 403 are missing
  • [05:16] <LGN_Raven> MonRemona has received a message from some sort of annoymous figure.
  • [05:16] <LGN_Raven> This figure has stated that this R2F repair dock is going to come under attack.
  • [05:16] <LGN_Raven> We are kinda skeptical of this fellow, but we are taking no chances.
  • [05:16] <LGN_Raven> 4.01 can be a convoy escort
  • [05:17] <LGN_Raven> sending supplies to 'this R2F repair dock'
  • [05:17] <LGN_Raven> Which could lead up to the 'annoymous tip'
  • [05:17] <LGN_Raven> Which would make 4.01 Day 1 for the R2F (We can assume however long passes before 4.01 that we need) with 4.02 being day 2 (For obvious reasons)
  • [05:18] <LGN_Raven> As all the pilots gathered the in breifing room wondering whats happening.
  • [05:18] <LGN_Raven> BGN Bigfoot takes the podium. " Attention, The Anglefire has been damaged and
  • [05:18] <LGN_Raven> a couple of volenteers are needed to escort her while a tech team repairs
  • [05:18] <LGN_Raven> her. any volenteers?"
  • [05:18] <LGN_Raven> That, imho, makes 4.03 a raid on the Anglefire (Angelfire?) with Assault Gunboats, occuring 2 days after 4.02, which makes 4.04 occur 12 hours (or so) after 4.03.
  • [05:18] <LGN_Raven> The [Angelfire] received a terrible beating with its past encounter with the pirates.
  • [05:18] <LGN_Raven> Make that R-41 Starchasers
  • [05:18] <LGN_Raven> instead of XG-1s
  • [05:20] <LGN_Raven> so, that sound ok?
  • [05:20] <Vaughan99> That sounds good
  • [05:21] <LGN_Raven> 4.05: 2 days after 4.04
  • [05:22] <LGN_Raven> 4.06: 3 days after 4.05
  • [05:22] <LGN_Raven> 4.07: Almost immediately (6 hours, maybe 7) after 4.06
  • [05:22] <LGN_Raven> 4.08: 1 day after 4.07
  • [05:23] <LGN_Raven> 5.01: 32 days after 4.08
  • [05:23] <LGN_Raven> “Well we have just arrived at our base in the Pyria system. we have the next
  • [05:23] <LGN_Raven> month officially off duty. but i aint going to let yall get to far out of
  • [05:23] <LGN_Raven> practice so we will be hitting the sims this month.”
  • [05:23] <LGN_Raven> ^--- Month + more downtime, estimated
  • [05:24] <LGN_Raven> yes, no?
  • [05:25] <Vaughan99> Yes, that's good
  • [05:25] <Vaughan99> I had it worked out to about 30 - 35 days
  • [05:27] <LGN_Raven> 5.02: 3 Days after 5.01
  • [05:27] <LGN_Raven> 5.03: 1 Day, 18 hours after 5.02 (This is precise, and based on in-briefing damage reports)
  • [05:29] <LGN_Raven> 5.04: 4 days after 5.03, allowing time for the rest of the repairs to be made before the trap.
  • [05:30] <LGN_Raven> 5.05: 2 days after 5.04
  • [05:30] <LGN_Raven> 5.06: Immediately after 5.05
  • [05:32] <LGN_Raven> The FC was bringing news of their new
  • [05:32] <LGN_Raven> assignment after a near 2 month leave and rest of the pilots of Retribution.
  • [05:32] <LGN_Raven> Dev's comlink suddenly gave a beep.
  • [05:32] <LGN_Raven> Hrm
  • [05:32] <LGN_Raven> I don't think that whole gap is between 5.06 and 6.01
  • [05:32] <LGN_Raven> so I'd have to call the gap between 5.06 and 6.01 about 18 days
  • [05:33] <LGN_Raven> 6.02: 2 days after 6.01
  • [05:34] <Vaughan99> Bringing news . . . so he doesn't arrive until 602?
  • [05:34] <LGN_Raven> Would sound about right
  • [05:35] <LGN_Raven> Your objective here is to protect our newly built platform.
  • [05:35] <LGN_Raven> 6.03: 13 days after 6.02
  • [05:36] <LGN_Raven> 6.04: 3 days after 6.03
  • [05:36] <LGN_Raven> 6.05: 4 days after 6.04
  • [05:38] <LGN_Raven> 6.06: 12 hours after 6.05
  • [05:38] <LGN_Raven> 6.07: Immediately after 6.06
  • [05:39] <LGN_Raven> 6.08: 4 Days after 6.07
  • [05:40] <LGN_Raven> 7.01: 3 Days after 6.08
  • [05:41] <LGN_Raven> 7.02: 18 hours after 7.01
  • [05:42] <LGN_Raven> 7.03: 2 days after 7.02
  • [05:42] <LGN_Raven> 7.04: 3 days after 7.03
  • [05:43] <LGN_Raven> 7.05: Hours after 7.04
  • [05:44] <LGN_Raven> 7.06: At least 10 days after 7.05
  • [05:44] <LGN_Raven> The narrative mentions two weeks passing
  • [05:44] <LGN_Raven> check me?
  • [05:44] * Vaughan99 nods
  • [05:44] <Vaughan99> They would be talking 7-day weeks
  • [05:45] <Vaughan99> Even thought Star Wars uses five-day weeks, I don't think many of the authors actually know that, c.f. I doubt the narrative writers did, either
  • [05:45] <LGN_Raven> then at least 14
  • [05:45] <LGN_Raven> 7.07: Almost immediately after 7.06
  • [05:45] <LGN_Raven> probably a few hours
  • [05:46] <LGN_Raven> 7.08: 3 days after 7.07
  • [05:46] <LGN_Raven> leaving the total time of drydock time for the Prometheus' upgrade to ISD II status (which is dumb) about an IC month
  • [05:48] <LGN_Raven> 7.09: Hours after 7.08
  • [05:49] <Vaughan99> By the way, in Tour 8, what they refer to as the Unknown Regions . . . I'm not convinced we should actually believe it to honestly be that. The Unknown Regions take up an area on the western region of the disc, and we take up the southern . . . that's a little too far out of the way . . . so maybe we'll just have them further south, deep into Wild Space
  • [05:49] <LGN_Raven> 8.00: Probably around 20 days after 7.09
  • [05:49] <LGN_Raven> mainly because of the change in command
  • [05:50] <LGN_Raven> 8.01: 3 days after 8.00
  • [05:52] <LGN_Raven> 8.02: 7 days after 8.01
  • [05:52] <LGN_Raven> 8.03: 1 Day after 8.02

  • [06:08] <LGN_Raven> 2.01 = new base
  • [06:10] <LGN_Raven> and increase 2.01 to 28 days to include repairs necessary after destroying that SSD
  • [06:09] <LGN_Raven> 2.02: 4 days after 2.01
  • [06:09] <LGN_Raven> 2.03: Immediately after 2.02

  • [06:12] <LGN_Raven> 3.02: Shortly (hours to 1 day) after 3.01
  • [06:13] <LGN_Raven> 3.03, 3.04, and 3.05
  • [06:13] <LGN_Raven> seem like they all occur right after one another
  • [06:13] <LGN_Raven> yes?
  • [06:14] <LGN_Raven> and directly after 3.02 actually too
  • [06:14] <Vaughan99> 305 might have a gap before it
  • [06:14] <Vaughan99> Face seems bored in the narrative briefing
  • [06:14] <LGN_Raven> but the briefing involves the convoy
  • [06:15] <LGN_Raven> that's been running in 04 and 03
  • [06:15] <Vaughan99> Maybe they've just moved them off to a safe place
  • [06:15] <Vaughan99> Temporarily
  • [06:15] <LGN_Raven> so either immediately
  • [06:15] <LGN_Raven> or 1 day
  • [06:15] <Vaughan99> It says 'once you've finished with the refugees'
  • [06:15] <Vaughan99> However
  • [06:16] <Vaughan99> The mission has the freighters (presumably with supplies for a NR base nearby) get completely annihilated by an ISD
  • [06:16] <LGN_Raven> okay...
  • [06:16] <Vaughan99> "New orders, good. Been getting kinda quiet around here."
  • [06:17] <Vaughan99> "Comms, after your finished with the refugees, send a transmission to all elements of the Fleet to rendevous with us at the Vectain system." "Yes Sir."
  • [06:17] <LGN_Raven> so put a gap in there
  • [06:17] <LGN_Raven> use yer best judgement
  • [06:17] <LGN_Raven> it's a bad narrative
  • [06:17] <LGN_Raven> contradicts itself
  • [06:17] <Vaughan99> The convoy is moving to a New Republic Base near the Rolias system.The New Republic needs the services of The Intrepid Battle Group and we've been asked for escorting the freighters as far as they reach the hyper point.
  • [06:17] <LGN_Raven> throw a gap in :P
  • [06:17] <LGN_Raven> so I can move on :P
  • [06:17] <Vaughan99> From that . . . I read that the refugees have been safely tucked away on some planet, and the freighters that transported them are being reused as a resupply convoy
  • [06:17] <LGN_Raven> works for me, 4 days then
  • [06:18] <LGN_Raven> 3.06: 6 days after 3.05 (For preparation, etc)
  • [06:18] <LGN_Raven> 4.01: Is a sim, that happens almost immediately after 3.06
  • [06:19] <LGN_Raven> 4.02: 2 days after 4.01
  • [06:19] <LGN_Raven> 4.03: 2 days after 4.02
  • [06:19] <Vaughan99> Do you think they'd let them have a rest before throwing them in the sims?
  • [06:19] <Vaughan99> Since they've just finished up a campaign, battle-weary, and heading back to base
  • [06:19] <LGN_Raven> no
  • [06:19] <LGN_Raven> not according to the briefing
  • [06:19] <LGN_Raven> . To keep the pilots from getting bored during the journey home, the IBG CO has ordered them to spend some time in the simulator.
  • [06:19] <LGN_Raven> It's during the hyperspace trip home
  • [06:21] <LGN_Raven> 4.04: 1 day after 4.03
  • [06:22] <LGN_Raven> 4.05: Hours after 4.04
  • [06:22] <LGN_Raven> 4.06: 5 Days after 4.05
  • [06:22] <LGN_Raven> 4.07: 2 days after 4.06
  • [06:22] <LGN_Raven> 4.08: Immediately after 4.07
  • [06:23] <LGN_Raven> 4.09: Immediately after 4.08
  • [06:23] <LGN_Raven> 4.07, 8, 9 are basically the same battle
  • [06:23] <Vaughan99> Yep, it's the Battle of New Trassk
  • [06:23] <LGN_Raven> 5.01: 17 days after 4.09 (Just to have some downtime)
  • [06:23] <LGN_Raven> 5.02: 4 days after 5.01
  • [06:24] <LGN_Raven> 5.03: 3 days after 5.02
  • [06:24] <LGN_Raven> 5.04: 1 day after 5.03
  • [06:24] <LGN_Raven> 5.05: 5 days after 5.04
  • [06:25] <LGN_Raven> 5.06: 2 days after 5.05
  • [06:25] <LGN_Raven> 5.07: 7 days after 5.06, assuming a battle happened between 6 and 7 that caused the damage
  • [06:25] <LGN_Raven> 5.08: 5 days after 5.07
  • [06:25] <LGN_Raven> 5.09: 1 day after 5.08

  • [06:26] <LGN_Raven> end of IBG

RgF

  • [06:27] <Vaughan99> 2) Operation: Zodiac is separate from the main tour, so treat it as something separate
  • [06:27] <Vaughan99> 3) Operation: Avoton doesn't count in official continuity yet
  • [06:28] <Vaughan99> And RgF202 doesn't exist, but we can treat it as a simulation for the pilots between missions, maybe . . .
  • [06:28] <LGN_Raven> What I'll do
  • [06:28] <LGN_Raven> is give you times for intra-Zodiac missions
  • [06:28] <LGN_Raven> then go with the rest
  • [06:29] <LGN_Raven> Zodiac 001 assuming it's day 0, makes Zodiac 002 3 days after 001; and 003 is 5 days after 002
  • [06:33] <LGN_Raven> 004 is 'almost immediately' after 003
  • [06:34] <LGN_Raven> 005 is 3 days after 004
  • [06:34] <LGN_Raven> 101 is some time, probably about 17 days, after 005
  • [06:34] <LGN_Raven> 102 is about 1 day after 101

  • [14:19] <LGN_Raven> with the rest (up until 2.01) being immediate
  • [14:20] <LGN_Raven> 2.01: 14 days, at least

  • [06:31] <LGN_Raven> assuming RgF 2.01 is day 0
  • [06:31] <LGN_Raven> 2.02, or the resultant historical, would occur about 3 days later
  • [06:31] <LGN_Raven> 2.02 = 3 days after 2.01
  • [06:32] <LGN_Raven> 2.03 = 18-36 hours after 2.02

  • [06:35] <LGN_Raven> 2.05 = 2 days after 2.04

  • [06:36] <LGN_Raven> 2.08 = 2 days after 2.07

  • [06:38] <LGN_Raven> 3.05 = 5 days after 3.04
  • [06:38] <LGN_Raven> 3.06 = almost immediately after 3.05 (would make sense)
  • [06:39] <LGN_Raven> 3.07 = immediately after 3.06
  • [06:39] <LGN_Raven> Okay pilot. The crew of the Ad Astra send their thanks for saving their butts out there. You all deserve a party. However, before you can attend that party, the supply platform has asked a favor of us.
  • [06:39] <LGN_Raven> They just received a distress signal from a convoy heading this way.
  • [06:39] <LGN_Raven> 3.08 = 4 days after 3.07
  • [06:39] <LGN_Raven> 3.09 = immediately (hours) after 3.08

  • [06:40] <LGN_Raven> 3.12 = almost immediately (hours) after 3.11)
  • [06:40] <LGN_Raven> We don't have much time, so listen up, pilot. The Raging Dragon managed to trap the Warlord's Star Destroyed using its gravity wells, but it is severly outnumbered and outclassed.
  • [06:40] <LGN_Raven> 4.01 = 8 days after 3.12

  • [06:41] <LGN_Raven> 4.06 = hours after 4.05 (makes sense)
  • [06:41] <LGN_Raven> Alright, pilot, we don't have much time for discussion, so listen up. We're going to take those craft we stole in the last mission and use them to our advantage. We need you to get back our VSD that was captured and get rid of some more of the Zodiac fleet. Get to your Gunboat and we'll start the briefing.
  • [06:42] <LGN_Raven> 4.07 = probably 18 hours after 4.06; given enough time to quickly refit the captured ships
  • [06:42] <LGN_Raven> 4.08 = 2 days after 4.07
  • [06:42] <LGN_Raven> 4.09 = 3 days after 4.08
