Hopefully this one will get updated. I'm not being negative towards you shadowman, it's just that the FSURP has already been tried 2wice. But, this looks promising. Cool

...Pioneer ship Gaia? Psamtik destroyed in 2366?

First off, what was me long rant ages ago about canon and non-canon? ...and all of FS2 occured in 2367, the exact timeframe I believe Sandwich has info on in his site, much like Zarathud has info on the FS1 chain of events... also the NTF rebellion began in 2366, the only real FS2 event in 2366 but it's 18 months before the campaign...

Also the 14 year war and Great War are completely seperate entities... The intel section you have does not make that clear...

Shadowman, when you cab get on ICQ or post the number, I myself might not have the time to run something like this, but I can point you to some good current resources for the "facts" as well as can filter out some stuff  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

I guess canon events would include Warzone, Derelict and the upcoming Blackwater Operations???

Canon events include FreeSpace Universe Reference Bible, FreeSpace nodechart, FreeSpace, Silent Threat and FreeSpace 2. Order of precedence for the facts is as listed.

Technically, FS2, FS + Silent threat are the two 'fully' canonical sources, with FS2 overiding FS + ST.  This means the FS2 nodemap is the right one.

The FS reference bible is 'official' which means it can't be argued with, except where it conflicts with canon.

ALL, ALL user-made campaigns and backgrounds, unless explicitely stated otherwise by   (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/v.gif), are nothing more than fan expansions, which rank lowest and are not part of the true FS timeline.

Oh, and this? (and a few others but I'll leave those to other people)

Nuh-uh, we have no info about post-Capella activities of the GTVA, except that which Petrarch mentions.

Include that into the FSURP too. Any useful information that can be used as reference by campaign creators is needed. A central location for them.
