OK. Well, I'll have a think about this and see if I can come up with a way we can present the same information without the non canon stuff. It might be easier to set it up as a series of events rather than a proper timeline, i.e. without any sort of reference to specific dates. Then maybe add the relevant bits I posted here, and a bit of a discussion about how long the game probably spans. But I'll try that tomorrow. - Black Wolf

Guys, this is all MY conjecture. I structured it to fit the events of the NTF Rebellion the player engages in within a timeframe that could be considered within 18 months of the start of the Rebellion, and still fit everything in 2335 with a plausible length.

Unfortunately we don't have ANY actual dates to go on for this so I've done the whole thing in Silver, to denote canon events but non-canon dates. [[User:Galemp|Galemp]] 22:18, 21 Nov 2005 (CET)

How accurate is this timeline? I thought the whole war was supposed to have taken less than a month (Given Admiral Petrach's statements about "18 months of NTF rebellion" at both the beginning and end of the game). - Black Wolf

If you don't find any proof it was inaccurate, don't critise this. - TopAce

Did you get any proof of the timeline before you wrote it? This comes from Act 2, Mission 7, the first Sathannas appearance, which your timeline pegs at November 11.

"The NTF rebellion is over. Polaris, Regulus, and Sirius are now under allied control, and we begin the process of rebuilding these systems after 18 months of bloodshed."

This comes from Act 1, Mission 1, which your timeline puts between August 16th and August 20th.

"After 18 months of fighting, Admiral Bosch's Neo-Terran Front has become the most significant threat to regional security since the Great War ended 32 years ago."

If three months had passed between them, Khafre would have said 21 months. Your timeline is wrong. - Black Wolf

Don't look at me, I only copy/pasted it from the original Wiki source. - TopAce
