Detailed Frontier Timeline – FY60.115 to FY60.145

  • Background
  • Setting Material

Here’s the next installment of the detailed Frontier Timeline. This month sees the sathar committing to a command structure for the coming war, the UPF begin to prepare for a potential threat, sabotage activities starting to hit important targets, and the Saurians beginning to flea their homeward in advanced of the sathar onslaught.

I’m thinking about increasing the posting frequency of these events on Twitter, and increasing the number of events in each monthly installment. Technically, an Earth month is 36 Frontier days so I should probably be posting at least at that rate. Anyway, it’s something I’m considering. Here’s last month’s events.

Date (FY)Event
60.115 The sathar starship construction center near Kizk-Kar completes construction of a heavy cruiser.
60.116 After nearly a year of investigation and undercover work, agents of the Pale government infiltrate and disrupt a major Star Devil operation in the outer reaches of the Truane’s Star system. Several vessels are seized including a frigate and pair of assault scouts which are added to the militia’s roster.
60.117 The first of the saurian Ark ships is completed in orbit around Sauria.  While initial testing is completed by the ship’s command crew, the colonists to depart on the ship begin assembling on the planet with all of their supplies.
60.118 The first creche of 50 Eorna born from the recovered egg ship are hatched. All of the new babies are heathy and appear to be free for any serious defects. Representing a 33% increase in the existing Eorna population, there is cautions excitement about the prospect for the future of the race.
60.119 Saboteurs strike against the exploration ship being refitted by the Yaziria Heritage Foundation damaging it but not destroying it, setting back their efforts. The Foundation suspects the Family of One to be behind the attack.
60.120 After months of debate and wrangling, Clan X is given control of the current campaign against the Frontier.  Clan Y continues to head the campaign against the Saurians.
60.121 The CDCSS Nightwind arrives in the Madderly’s Star System on its way back to Cassidine.  The ship needs to lay over in the system for several days to complete overhauls on its engines.
60.122 After 14 days of climbing, the Spire Dragon mountaineering team has found a location one quarter of the way up Mt. Spire where they establish their first forward camp.  Work begins hauling supplies up from the base camp while parts of the team continue the ascent.
60.123 Unknown assailants waylay the crew of the CDCSS Nightwind on their last day on station Kdikit. While several of the crew are injured, none are killed.  The assailants are not so lucky and those that are captured are turned over to station authorities for questioning.  The Nightwind gets underway for Cassidine
60.124 Beginning of year 2898 on Hum (Fochrik).
60.125 The CDCSS Nightwind is attacked by a pair of assault scouts as it makes its way out of the Madderly’s Star system. Too far out for assistance from Spacefleet, the ship is damaged but manages to damage its pursuers enough to escape, validating the ship’s design.
60.126 Large bomb explodes on Faire in the Capella system. Several hundred are injured and dozens are killed. It’s not clear who set off the detonation or its purpose.
60.127 The Medical Services Organization issues an alert about the rise is Ixiol cases in the Prenglar system, most notably on Gran Quivera but several cases have been reported on the Gollwin Academy. Cadets found using the drug expelled from Spacefleet.
60.128 The TTSS Destiny arrives in the White Light system on its Grand Tour.
60.129 Spacefleet and Star Law launch a joint investigation into the origin and distribution of the drug Ixiol.  While it’s believed to originate in the Dramune system, the exact source is still unknown.
60.130 Strike Force Nova departs White Light for the Timeon system.
60.131 The CDCSS Nighwind arrives at Triad and is taken into the CDC shipyards there for repairs and inspections.
60.132 Its shakedown cruise completed, the first saurian Ark ship begins to load supplies and colonists for their exodus from the Saurian system.  They don’t know where they will end up but prepare to flee the nearly inevitable annihilation at the hands of the sathar.
60.133 The Zik-Kit (Kizk’-Kar), Kawdl-Kit (K’tsa-Kar), and Ken’zah-Kit (K’aken-Kar) Defense Alliance (ZKKDA) places an order for an assault scout at the Inner Reach (Fromeltar) starship construction center to begin building up a militia for the K’aken-Kar system.
60.134 After weeks of planning and deliberations, Spacefleet initially uses its increased budget to commission two new battleships to be the basis of new Strike Forces. One is to be built at Gran Quivera (Prenglar) while the other is to be built at Triad (Cassidine)
60.135 Pale starship construction center repairs continue and capacity reaches 70% of its original value.
60.136 Another destroyer is completed at the sathar starship construction center in the Liberty system.
60.137 The first of the pirate ships seized in a recent raid (an assault scout) completes its refit and begins service in the Pale militia. 
60.138 The Council of Worlds finally addresses the petition regarding signals emanating from a system beyond Hargurt (Gruna Garu) in the Vast Expanse. After listening to the evidence and hearing testimony, the Council creates a “Beyond the Frontier” subcommittee to analyze the data and present a plan for investigation.
60.139 Inbound to Minotaur Station (Minotaur, Theseus), the TTSS Destiny reports a sighting of an unidentified vessel that carried Spacefleet markings and transponder codes but did not respond to hails.  The vessel matched the one reported in the Gruna Garu system.
60.140 Strike Force Nova arrives at Lossend (Timeon).  It will remain in system for 6 days.
60.141 The CDCSS Nightwind completes its refit and inspection.  It joins the CDC fleet as a regular freight hauler.  CDC commissions the next ship in the series, the CDCSS Mystic, designed more as a passenger liner rather than a freighter. The new model’s profile is identical to the Nightwind’s but swaps out the cargo bays for modular passenger decks.
60.142 The Spire Dragons continue to make progress finding a location approximately halfway up Mt. Spire to establish a second advanced camp.  Two team members were lost in the ascent to this forward camp.  The next three weeks are spend hauling supplies up to this second camp and resting at the lower one.
60.143 Construction of the Spacefleet battleship at the Pan Galactic starship construction center orbiting Gran Quivera (Prenglar) begins. 
60.144 Construction of the Spacefleet battleship at the Cassidine Development Corporation starship construction center orbiting Triad (Cassidine) begins.
60.145 The second assault scout seized in the Star Devil Pirate raid completes its refit and enters service in the Pale militia.  With the frigate and other ships reaching completion as well, the militia mounts a recruitment drive to increase its ranks.
