Here’s the next installment of the detailed Frontier timeline. I realized that I left off the last day of the previous post so it is included here. The events of the Sundown on Starmist module reach their conclusion and the Council of Worlds start to take the sathar threat seriously.
Date (FY) | Event |
60.084 | After several days of probing, the saurian Battle Rays begin their return to the Sauria system. |
60.085 | Initial repairs begun on the Pale (Truane’s Star) starship construction center. Capacity is increased to 60% of its original value. |
60.086 | After nearly a month of meetings on Volturnus (Zebulon), the Council of Worlds declares the planet to hold protectorate status but not full membership. It is deemed that the Eorna population is too small while the other races are not advanced enough for full membership. |
60.087 | The VSS Last Legs arrives at Starmist. Maximillian and the scouting party make contact with the planet’s natives. (SF3) |
60.088 | Patrol Group Wisdom arrives in the Gruna Garu system and begins investigating the sighting of the unidentified vessel with Spacefleet markings. |
60.089 | Maximillian Malligigg is captured and taken prisoner by the priests of the Heliope village. (SF3) |
60.090 | – Sathar robots, shaped like Heliopes, attack the Heliope village causing destruction of many of the buildings. The village temple is partially burned, revealing an alien war tank concealed inside. (SF3) – SF Nova arrives in the K’sta-Kar system and will remain in system for 12 days. |
60.091 | – While Maximillian and the scouting party are examining the war tank, sathar robots attack the village again. Driving the robots off, they follow them in the tank. (SF3) – The sathar starship construction center in the Liberty system completes another destroyer. |
60.092 | The retreating robots lead the scouting party to a sathar base. Infiltrating the base, they discover it is mostly abandoned and defeat the remaining sathar and agents in place. However, the base is destroyed by an automated self-destruct system. (SF3) |
60.093 | Saurian Battle Rays arrive back in the Sauria system from scouting the Tischen and Dayzer systems. |
60.094 | The alien war tank on Sundown (Starmist) begins behaving erratically and alarms and lights begin to flash. 30 minutes later it self-destructs in a small nuclear explosion. (SF3) |
60.095 | Maximillian and survivors of the scouting party leave Sundown (Starmist) to return to K’sta-Kar on the VSS Last Legs. (SF3) |
60.096 | The TTSS Destiny arrives back in Prenglar after touring the western half of the Frontier, visiting Truane’s Star, Dixon’s Star, and all the yazirian systems (Gruna Garu, Araks, Scree Fron, & Athor). Replenishing supplies, it prepares to continue its Grand Tour. |
60.097 | CDCSS Nightwind turns up in the White Light system under the name TSS Star’s Gift. CDC immediately dispatches a team to recover the ship. (AR) |
60.098 | Having completed its shakedown cruise, the UPFS Nexus begins a high speed run to join up with Strike Force Nova. |
60.099 | Fortress Kdikitt (Madderly’s Star) reaches the 80% completion mark. Behind schedule and due to the increased sathar activity in the Frontier, the UPF places a priority on operational security and getting the fortress completed. |
60.100 | After months of work, a petition with over 100,000 names is submitted to the Council of Worlds demanding investigation of signals detected from Hargurt in a system just beyond the Frontier in the direction of the Vast Expanse. In the intervening months, signals have been detected multiple times from the system. |
60.101 | Second Volturnus Expedition members testify before the Council of Worlds about events on Volturnus (Zebulon) leading to the Battle of Volkos. |
60.102 | – The first of a new class of sathar vessels, the cutter, functionally modeled on the assault scout, is completed at the sathar starship construction center near Zebulon. – SF Nova departs K’sta-Kar for the White Light System |
60.103 | After months of deliberation, the Council of Worlds votes to increase Spacefleet spending by 10% allowing for the commissioning of several new vessels. |
60.104 | After many days of debate, the decision is made to abandon the Tischen and Dayzer systems in face of the sathar forces there and focus all efforts on defending Sauria and completing the Ark program (FE004). |
60.105 | The TTSS Destiny departs Gran Quivera (Prenglar) for the Timeon system to continue its Grand Tour of the Frontier. Over 100 passengers have been on the ship for the entire tour and intend to visit every system. |
60.106 | CDC team arrives in the White Light System from the Theseus system to attempt to reclaim the CDCSS Nightwind (AR). |
60.107 | Assault scout completed at the Gran Quivera (Prenglar) starship construction center to replace the UPF vessel lost at the Battle of Zebulon |
60.108 | After over a month of struggle through the jungles, the Spire Dragons reach the foothills of Mount Spire and establish a base camp. Several members of the expedition have perished along the way and people question the wisdom of their approach. |
60.109 | A new assault scout is completed at the Pale starship construction center to replace the militia vessel lost at the Battle of Zebulon |
60.110 | UPFS Nexus arrives at Clarion (White Light) to await the arrival of SF Nova and spends the day training with the White Light Militia. |
60.111 | SF Nova arrives at Clarion in the White Light system and is joined by UPFS Nexus. It will remain in system for 19 days. |
60.112 | After sneaking onboard just before the ship departs, the CDCSS Nightwind is recaptured by the CDC operatives and the former employees responsible for assisting in its disappearance are captured. The ship begins its way back to corporate headquarters. |
60.113 | After a long and detailed search of the Gruna Garu system by Patrol Group Wisdom, no evidence is found of the mysterious vessel. The patrol group departs the system to return to Prenglar. |
60.114 | Attempt is made (but fails) to sabotage Gollwin Academy. |
