2014
January - February: workups for all ships that have been completed are finished. No discernable problems are evident in the designs. This is a complement to the work of Gen. Carter-O'Neill and Dr. McKay. All forces are now equipped with new equipment, navy and marines alike.
March: An Athena II-class: SD/R-308, a research Superdreadnought is dispatched to the Alpha Centauri survey site, after arrival the survey speeds up by a couple of hundred percent.
April - May: final details are worked out for the new government and its branches. The government will, overall, be a three branch democracy based on both the British and American models. The various departments will include: dept. of HomeWorld security, dept. of the interior, dept. of state, dept. of treasury, and the dept. of colonization administration. Under the aegis of HWS there will be four services. These services will include : Navy, Marines, Spec Ops and the Exploration directorate. The interior ministry will oversee everything having to do with the management of a large population; state will oversee diplomacy, and follow-up visits to all inhabited planets visited by the SGC; the dept. of treasury is straight forward, it takes care of the amount of money in circulation, and most, if not all criminal activity; the colonization administration oversees all colonization endeavors both through the gate and by ship.
June: Atlantis is chosen as new capital of the Terran Imperium. One provision in the constitution is that the city is to stay under cloak as much as possible and to move at all times around the world's oceans. Secure comm links that are virtually impossible to track or crack are designed by Gen. Carter-O'Neill and McKay and their respective tech teams.
July - August: government comes online without any major conflicts. All agencies such as the IOA are disbanded. On August 25 various factions in North Korea and China try to launch a preemptive strike on all major world cities, needless to say, they failed.
September: A proposal to use stealthed sensor satellites to provide early warning systems against Wraith cullings is adopted and implemented in record time. The satelites use sensor systems derived from both the Asgard systems and the sensors used on Atlantis and sport Stargates for use by rapid reaction forces in jumpers. In the first week after the satelites are activated twenty different hive ship groups are spotted and tagged with subspace beacons by stealthed jumpers. Also in that time period there are several dozen unknown hyperspace tracks that are not associated with either the Wraith or with the Travelers. A squadron of ten SC-311 Loki cruisers is dispatched to find and identify the users of the unknown starships. With the Pegasus Galactic Surveillance System a success beyond preliminary projections, a similar system is setup in the Milky Way, with similar success.
October: With the Milky Way Galactic Surveillance System, or MWGSS for short, online and running a fleet of starships is detected moving slowly, at about the speeds of a Goa'uld Al'kesh, towards the Sol system. In an attempt to stop and identify the group of ships, a prototype hyperspace jammer is deployed along with the majority of earths ships, a light-month ahead of the unknowns position in order to intercept the group.
November: After the group of unknowns is pulled out of hyper and identified there is much consternation, as the intercepted group of ships are a mix of Ancient, Asgard, and, apparently, Furling warships in prime condition numbering 100 of each species ships in a number of classes.
December: Over the period of this month all recovered ships are transported to the Alpha Centauri system for technical workups by the crews stationed there. The Asgard ships are sent to the Sol shipyards for tuning up and to evaluate the possibility of use as the ship/bases of a rapid reaction/ strike force utilizing the latest in technological developments.
A/N: for all those who want to know the classes and numbers of ships recovered in November a list will be provided in my equipment list for the Terran Imperium.
