Is there a FS1 time line? I'm working thorugh a FS2 mod idea. And any info on Shivans (i.e. what they are) will be very much appreciated. But if there is no such info then I'll add all the opinions about them together and make something up.

Don't worry, i made the same oversight


and


Voila!

you're welcome

[HotSnoJ]

I've read that. I was meaning rock hard info. I.E. Do we know if they are organic or machines for sure. If we don't I'll make up something.

[Knight Templar]

We don't know for sure. Ask some of the old-timers, i heard Volition had a press release or something a long while back stating to think of the shivans as the symptom of a bigger problem.

Freespace3 would probably reveale all of this, but you all know the story of fs3. The Shivans ate it:D

[Knight Templar]

personally, i am glad that the shivans aren't revealed. It gives them so muc more mystery/uber bad guys feel. Like how the borg used to be, before the dark times, before voyager .

[HotSnoJ]

I guess then I gotta make something up. I guess from the last pst that I shouldn't reveal all that much about them.

[Knight Templar]

Do what you think well be good. If you want to say Shivans originated fom Wookies and that romulans are coming to take over the universe along with the ghoul'a'uld (sp?) then do it.

I have a selective mind, i tend to just not beleive things and ignore them if i don't like them.

An old example would be Wazone. I hated that ending, i don't like the idea of Shivans being so ... "lowly" that That admiral could do what he did to them  (trying not to spoil, for those that *gasp* haven't played such an old campaign)

KT, I think you're going to like how I scripted DatDB. I managed to take that "symptom of a bigger problem" quote and turn it into my 90 mission campaign.

Ahum:

2262, August 12th: First successful subspace jump to delta serpentis by the Pioneer ship "Gaia"

2263-4: Sub-Space travel is quickly utilized by GTA PCT - Provisional  Cooperation Treaty. Most Nation States with a high industrial capacity cooperate on a massive building programme to create subspace capable ships to carry a sizeable colonisation fleet beyond Delta Serpentis.

2311: Near by systems fully colonized, Antares system and other border systems have automated science outposts. Final Unification of earth govornments into the infant GTA. While the early GTA was more akin to an expanded United Nations, it was more concerned with domestic issues that military concerns.

2318: First Vasudan Contact - Communication failiures frustrate both sides.

2320: Large scale distribution of Terran/Vasudan translation device to both cultures. Several High level Terran officers commence a soft campaign against the rest of the security council.

Sept 2320-nov 2320: Several Terran attacks on vasudan assets cause outrage on vasuda prime. Orders to the patrols cannot be traced by Intelligence.

None of this information from the timeline is canon, it is rough estimation at best. However the rest of it's entries are.

[Su-tehp]

Yeah, I was never really impressed by FSURP. Quite a bit of their information is wrong. Some of their info, like the above entries, you just can't tell where FSURP got from because they are mentioned NOWHERE in FS2 or FS1.
