Under that silly logic I'd consider Flames of War the most canon because it follows events mentioned in FS2 main campaign briefings but not shown to the player. Though of course, Flames of War is completely and totally not-canon. There's no semi-canon.

There's Volition.
And then there's everyone else.

Welcome to everyone else.

 
Then we run into the Terran Vasudan war, a totally canon event shown in the TVWP. Where does that go?
It has Volition story, and everybody else's missions, so it doesn't belong to either canon (everyone else's missions) or not canon  (:v: storyline).
'Teeth of the Tiger' - campaign in the making
Story, Ships, Weapons, Project Leader.

The campaign is non-canon. Why? It has non-canon missions and non-canon ships in it. The event itself is canon, because it is mentioned in FS.

Seriously, this is exactly like saying Flames of War or Rebel Intercept are 100% canon because they talk of canon events. They're not. :rolleyes:

  
Either 0% or 100%....

What if I say that 15 or 20% of the TVWP's content is canon, and can be read about on the FS wiki?

Then you'd be wrong.
TVWP is an entirely non-canon campaign based on/inspired by events mentioned in the FS canon.

Saying that a campaign is semi-canon is like saying a two-state light switch can be semi-on. There is no such thing as a canon gradient. Either all original material in the campaign is completely canon, or all original material in a campaign is not true. A light is either on or not on. Plz stop over-complicating things kaithx.

Something is either canon or non-canon. Simple as black and white.

I was messing around with INFA once, and I was blowing up a waved wing of Basts with the Ripper cannon. Was funneh.

[22:29] <sigtau> Hello, #hard-light?  I'm trying to tell a girl she looks really good for someone who doesn't exercise.  How do I word that non-offensively?

Wos? Really? Uhh, must be thinking of the wrong mission... Damn I need to brush up on my terms.

Anyway, I was talking about the one CP5670 made where you have to bomb like 20 cruisers which have 120 fighters as escort, and there's a planet with a crappy stretched nebula "ring" around it in the background. I dunno.

I think it's safe to say the FS community has changed since then.

I liked the Satis better. Because in the FS1 mission "Darkness and the Light" they were in a wing called "Turtle".

I get that "space trucker" feel from the Ma'at.

I'm pretty sure that in the half-decade+  since squadwar fell that we've all moved on. . . . :( </sorrow>
