Introduction

Below is a timeline of the vents of the current mission, beginning with the first post of MD 1 andending with the post that occured on the most recent mission date.

Please keep in mind that this is not a timeline of when each person posted, but a timeline of the events in our posts in relation to one another. This means that the latest event is NOT NECESSARILY from the most recent post. That is why this timeline is kept: to help the players more readily grasp the true sequence of the events about which we write.

Concerns about the timeline should be addressed to Rob Meier.

Meier          22.1435           Kowalski informs Frost of what she learned from DEFIANT's logs;

                                   that a Human body was found in the city's ruins. Again, Frost
                                   informs Brooks and Coleman. Then Sefal somehow manages to
