Star*Soldier Gloss: Page 42
This is the Star*Soldier gloss for the third timeline page:
CONCEPT: See the previous post!
- "2649.189" - Alternate version addition. From the Super Famicom version of Wing Commander I, translated from Japanese.
- "2649.205" - The correct placement for the Custer's Carnival story. The date comes from the Terran Confederation Handbook.
- "2653" - Alternate version addition. From the Wing Commander Academy series bible.
- "2654.074" - My addition, describes the Wing Commander movie.
- "2654.079" - My addition, describes Pilgrim Stars.
- "2654.130" - My addition, describes Pilgrim Truth. I wanted to make the unpublished novels 'canon', even if their specifics are not.
- "2654.131" - My addition, describes 'Last One Left'. The Wing Commander Academy dates come from the Japanese version of the Wing Commander movie DVD, which takes them from the CIC's theoretical timeline.
- "2654.162" - My addition, describes 'Lords of the Sky'.
- "2654.176" - My addition, describes 'Expendable' and 'Chain of Command'.
- "2654.186" - My addition, describes 'Invisible Enemy'.
