This is not a chapter per say, but a chapter dealing with dates important to the story, with additional notes on characters and their choices. This chapter also is a reference for all ships and weapons coming up that the TSA use. I realise Phasers are from Star Trek but who's to lay other races cannot develop them?
2014: Am reconstructing notes based off new info
Isotons = 1 to 10 megatons (more reasonable) rather than the original 1000
BDE= Before Draconia Era
Dragon year=DY
Alliance era=AE
BDE: 1002: Birth of Aurix Darkwielder, Erianus Brightwing. Ancalagan Aujirwing, Mycroft Rachwing, Erianus Stormwing. Deaths of their families, the wrymlings create and swear the Metallic oath, all metallic Dragons were to unite and destroy every single Lloth follower in existence.
BDE 1202: Birth of Aranus Aujirwing, the 5 Dragonlords began gathering numbers and strength to build an empire to last the ages.
BDE 1310: Loss of Aranus' daughter to Drow loyalists.
BDE 1750: Foundation of Draconia and start of empire, population of empire is 100,000 at this point.
BDE 2250: Conquest of Americas completed, population of empire has skyrocketed to 25 million. Many armies are created and time is taken to improve technologies.
BDE 2750: Draconia has detonated first nuclear bomb, DM-5 is military issued assault rifle. Draco mark III tanks are now mainstay of armoured divisions.
BDE 3002: Birth of Bloom Dana Dragonfire, Draconia's forces have taken Portugal and began conquest of Spain, France and Ireland. Ireland is full of Underdark passages and considered a "playground" for Drow loyalists.
BDE 3020: Bloom's family are killed in a coup in the small kingdom of Luxembourg, Bloom flees to Draconia owned France then Canada where Draconia resides.
BDE 3021: Bloom starts dating Aurix who is under an assumed identity. Conquest of English isles completed. Draconia has now attained superpower status.
BDE 3023: Bloom marries Aurix becoming empress of Draconia.
BDE 3025: Draconia empire is approached by Sharnorasian Empire, Aurix signs the protected realms treaty. Allowing for 5 Sharnorasian made Dana class super battleships to guard the system.
D.Y 0, 3 million years later: Draconia's final defences are finished, space elevator constructed and the first manned scoutships are launched.
D.Y 2: Bloom is pregnant with fraternal twins, Aurix and Dragon lords finally settle down in Draconia.
D.Y 3: Darlana Bloom and Daniel Aurix Darkwielder are born.
D.Y 205: Darlana is caught by Lloth's avatar in Drow owned China, is brought to Menzoberranzan and tortured for 13 months.
D.Y 206: Darlana escapes from Menzoberranzan with aid from hidden avatar of Bahamut, Darlana is graced with the amulet of shadowed life. The gem within the amulet hides the life force of the wearer. Making them immune to ANY form of scrying or soul capture spells, also hides them from the gaze of any god except when in direct line of sight. Gem is then imbedded magically in Darlana's pelvic bone.
D.Y 505: Draconia has encountered and formally declared war on all Drow loyalist factions, Germany and Italy have joined with Draconia in fear of the Drow.
D.Y 1000: Stalemate across the front, colonization of 2nd Meta-Gaia class world in the system has begun, no intelligent species have evolved in system.

AE 515: Current date (see next chapter)
Weapon technologies: Infantry/Armor
APAR-2: The Alliance Plasma Assault Rifle-2, a plasma assault rifle that was based off the DM-8 LR of the early alliance era. The rifle uses energy cells of 1000 bolts each, each cell in a magazine of 6 cells. The rifle has a underslung plasma grenade launcher below the main barrel that draws power from the cell to fire. Allows for 10 grenades per cell, blast is 2x that of original 40mm underslung.
Glock P3: The main pistol of the TSA forces, since AE 315 the Glock had dispensed with the traditional 9mm AP rounds for a magazine of 2 energy cells with 90 plasma bolts each.
PP-90: The Plasma P-90 SMG with 25 energy cells of 100 bolts each loaded in a magazine
Lightsaber: The main plasma melee weapon of the alliance, has varying sizes/models
Barrett-MAC: Dispensing with the venerable yet still powerful 50 Cal rounds, the BMAC can fling a 100mm round at 50% of the speed of light. Has side mounted magazine of 6 rounds.
PAM-RPG: A shoulder mounted rocked launcher boasting a 3 cm plasma antimatter warhead.
LAMBT: The light alliance main battle tank-protected by 20 cm of ablative adamantium armor, deployable ablative armor, mana and energy shields. Has a 10 gigawatt plasma cannon
MAMBT: The medium alliance main battle tank-protected by 30 cm of ablative adamantium armor, deployable ablative armor, mana and energy shields. Has a 25 gigawatt plasma cannon
HAMBT: The heavy alliance main battle tank-protected by 75 cm of ablative adamantium armor, deployable ablative armor, mana and energy shields. Has a 75 gigawatt plasma cannon
Starship technologies
Phasers: powerful energy beam cannons, technology that replaced the turbolasers as mainstay standard ship to ship exchange cannon. Has both fixed and arrays for firing arcs
Pulse disruptors: Small disruptor turrets that act as point defence system with ability to fire at multiple targets simultaneously.
Plasma pulse disruptors: Larger versions of the point defence for standard ship-to-ship engagements.
PAMS- Plasma antimatter missiles of variant yields for depending on ship sizes. Interceptors have smaller missiles than destroyers.
PACs: Plasma accelerator cannon: Replacing the massive adamantium slug with a huge ball of plasma striking with the same kinetic force then heat expansion from the plasma bolt. Ships will either mount PPI Turrets or PACs only a few ships are both large enough and have enough power for both systems.
Phased ion turrets: Much different from the original ion turrets brought by the TSA Darkwielder, these fire ions of negative energy that disintegrate physical matter, partially charged with ions from the phasing cloak device, the ion bolt is partially in phase allowing it a 50% chance to phase through energy shields. Only a 5% for mana shields.
Pulsed phased ion turrets: These turrets are much larger than the standard phased ion turrets, these have lesser range but 4x the punch of the standard phased ion turrets.
Plasma projectors: Weapon of last resort, a large beam of plasma used primarily for orbital bombardment. Can be used to completely glass a planet.
All mana shields have been upgraded to handle isoton level damage. Reference note 1000 megatons to a gigaton, 10 megatons to an isoton. Updated stats in 2014

A/N: If I goofed or made anything too powerful, let me know, but let me hear an argument, not a too many guns… just too much kind of stuff. Remember the elite ships are called STAR DREADNOUGHTS, they are meant to be built big and powerful. Basically when one of these show up it'll blow most of what's facing it out of the stars.
