I have returned to SFB via FEDCOM.
Has anyone ever did a complete scenario listing in chronological order?
I would like to see one.

The timeline at http://www.starfleetgames.com/documents/Timeline.pdf seems to have updated in 2007, and to only have scenarios up to the 80s, and not all of those.

well that is the timeline...im curious to see if anyone did a SCENARIO timeline...a listing of the scenarios in chrono order

I think for most of the FedComm scenarios that have been ported over from SFB you'd have to check the original SFB scenarios to get the dates. Since FedComm is organized more by "era" than by date, specific years might be hard to come by. Maybe not impossible, but challenging.

We really haven't done such a document. We probably should. Ryan may have included one in his master index. When I finish the history book, that will in effect have a scenario timeline since the whole book is a timeline and will have everything.

Do you have the information in a database that could output the sorted list? I'd started a quick & dirty text file just typing the Y year and SH number and inserting new lines as scenarios happen in between.

There's a bunch of us in that same demographic (I'm 46). I just wish more of us were closer together (and had more free time, in my case).

No, the information is not in a database.

To create a list would mean creating the database. Should have done it (did it for FedCom) but never had time. It would take days of work.

I'd thought submitted scenarios were categorized by year, empires involved, and ship types to quickly find one that covered a subject.

Anyway, grabbing the modules within easy reach, I get this:

I had an idea here but I'm busy with the final recovery from the system hard disk crash (just got the Mac back on internet, helps when you unplug the ethernet cord and plug it back in) and need to do that, CL52, and the art for the Lyran MSSB before I launch it. Somebody remind me in a month.
