Well, another day, another upload: this time I have broken down the first ten issues of the excellent comicbook-series Knights of the Old Republic in daily segments... The stories by John Jackson Miller are rich in timeline-references, and his blog on farawaypress.com provides some clues to the timeline as well... And now that he has announced that from # 13 and beyond, a Holonet News-style page will be included, I am an extremely happy man!!!!

Anyway, having broken down the stories Crossroads (# 0), Commencement (# 1 - 6), Flashpoint (# 7, 8, and 10) and Flashpoint Interlude: Homecoming (# 9), I have come to the following 'short summary' (added to the Index of Important Events on the main page of my timeline website):

4,000 BBY

03:21 Lucien Draay, son of Jedi Consular Krynda Draay, is born on Coruscant

3,964 BBY

06:17 Mandalorian forces conquer the Flashpoint stellar research station

08:16 On Taris, Falleen Jedi Padawan Kamlin captures P'den Robalt

08:35 On Taris, Ho'Din Jedi Padawan Oojoh brings down the Leverby smuggling ring

09:09 Mandalorian forces attack the Outer Rim world of Jebble

09:13 On Taris, Feeorin Jedi Master Feln hunts down wanted criminal Zovius Mendu

09:17 Mandalorian forces attack the Outer Rim world of Vanquo

09:23 Mandalorian forces attack the Outer Rim world of Tarnith

10:03 Mandalorian forces attack the Outer Rim world of Suurja

10:05 Mandalorian and Republic forces retire from Suurja, with neither gaining an advantage

10:10 Jedi Padawan Zayne Carrick discovers that his fellow Jedi Padawans are killed

10:34 Mandalorian forces attack the Outer Rim world of Vanquo again

10:35 A small Republic fleet arrives in orbit of Vanquo which is under heavy attack from Mandalorian shock troopers

And some 'minor' events take place on the first day of 3,963 BBY, but these are not mentioned in the 'Index of Important Events', but can be found in the story summary-section...

For full story summaries, you can check out the Day-to-Day Events of my website (scroll down to the years 3,964 and 3,963 BBY).

Next project: Although I do not have access to the computer games (well, I do have access, but do not have the patience or time to play them out, nor do I have one of the many game-platforms required), I will try to chronicle both KotOR games. For this challenge, I will use the following sources:

Star Wars: KotOR : Prima's Official Strategy Guide
Star Wars: KotOR II: The Sith Lords: Prima Official Game Guide
Lunabean's KotOR: The Sith Lords Light Side and Dark Side Walkthrough and Strategy Guide
info from the Drew Karpyshyn timeline from Star Wars Insider
info from the New Essential Chronology
info from the KotOR II official site's Chronicles (Part IX: Darth Revan Rising, Part X: Proving Grounds, Part XI: Knights of the Old Republic, Part XII: The Feeding of Malachor V and Part XIII: Ascension of the Sith)
and the story-summary of Wiki...

See, this is where a comic or book would come in handy...

Anyway, you all have a Merry Christmas or whatever festivities you celebrate with your loved ones...

Greetz and take care,
Eddie
