KNOWN MISSING SOURCES

If others are familiar with these sources and have specific references they can add to this timeline, I will consider updating this history. Send me a message through my profile and we'll go from there. The more detailed the reference, the more seriously it will be considered, especially if it is confirmed by others as I can't check them myself.

» ----- TCoR: Dark Fury – the animated DVD (I saw this, and don't recall any "historical" references, but then I wasn't seriously looking for them at the time.)

» ----- TCoR: Escape From Butcher Bay – video game (I haven't played it, and don't intend too). I've been told that the "movie" mentioned under sources leaves out quite a bit, so if someone has a more detailed summery of the storyline or a list of any "historical" information revealed it would be greatly appreciated.
