Corona 3: Nothing on scope, sir. Goddamn useless Aurora sensor pods...
Corona 1: Brevity, people.
Corona 2: I think Three's right. It's just not here.
Corona 1: When Command wants your opinion they'll promote you to admiral. Now shut up and keep looking.
Corona 3: With all due respect, sir, I don't think it's even part of this continuity.

i think you skipped a question between 14 and 12 unless I missed something.

Hrm. A beam-less explodey thing that moves under its own power and has more than one person in it, but you don't drive it in any released campaigns and nor is it in BP. I'm guessing reconstruction or T-V war, since it's not retail canon either.

Is it a T-V war era ship?

Yeah, I went straight from 14 to 12, good catch.

It's not a T-V War ship, but we've already determined that it's neither Terran nor Vasudan, so I'm not going to count that one.

7 questions remain, unless I ****ed up elementary arithmetic again.

Oh. I have one. Since it's not BP, it can't be the vishans, so....

Is it featured in Ancient-Shivan War?

It very well may be, battle brother. Six inferior questions still remain, but our glorious empire shall exterminate them all the same.

I would want to pass the question to someone else, but if nobody wants to, then I will think of something.

Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Codethulhu GitHub wgah'nagl fhtagn.

schrödinbug (noun) - a bug that manifests itself in running software after a programmer notices that the code should never have worked in the first place.

When you gaze long into BMPMAN, BMPMAN also gazes into you.

"I am one of the best FREDders on Earth" -General Battuta

<Aesaar> literary criticism is vladimir putin

<MageKing17> "There's probably a reason the code is the way it is" is a very dangerous line of thought. :P
<MageKing17> Because the "reason" often turns out to be "nobody noticed it was wrong".
(the very next day)
<MageKing17> this ****ing code did it to me again
<MageKing17> "That doesn't really make sense to me, but I'll assume it was being done for a reason."
<MageKing17> **** ME
<MageKing17> THE REASON IS PEOPLE ARE STUPID
<MageKing17> ESPECIALLY ME

<MageKing17> God damn, I do not understand how this is breaking.
<MageKing17> Everything points to "this should work fine", and yet it's clearly not working.
<MjnMixael> 2 hours later... "God damn, how did this ever work at all?!"
(...)
<MageKing17> so
<MageKing17> more than two hours
<MageKing17> but once again we have reached the inevitable conclusion
<MageKing17> How did this code ever work in the first place!?

<@The_E> Welcome to OpenGL, where standards compliance is optional, and error reporting inconsistent

<MageKing17> It was all working perfectly until I actually tried it on an actual mission.

Taking "canon" to mean "appears in a :v: canon campaign": no, it is not canon. Yes, it is material.
