Solar Union Universe: Timeline

Here is the timeline I've created for this new alternative Future Wars campaign:

1905: End of Great War with victory to the British American Empire

1907: New Thinking becomes prevalent in government circles and starts to permeate society

1911: Discovery of White Energy

1951: Lunar Station completed

1950s: Colonisation of the Solar system

1956: Discovery of the Warp Field

1965: Creation of the Solar Union as the new world government

1976: First FTL warp to Alpha Centauri

1980s: Exodus into surrounding space to establish colonies

1980s: Encounter Andrayadan, Kyrillian, Grail and Geonee

1983: Colonial Union Defence Force founded

1986: Interstellar Wars commence

1999: Current year

I've also fleshed out some other details about the CUDF which now resembles a militarised Space 1999 complete with Eagles and Hawks. Pure indulgence!

Here also is an extract on the Grail mentioned in the earlier post.

The Grail are a lesser but still potent and frightening enemy. They are inter-dimensional beings that have been warped from what humans’ term chaos space. They use their priests and acolytes to wield their mind powers and assimilate sentient races. They are particularly partial to humans and have made a compact with the other races. They resemble Mind Flayers from AD&D.
