2036 CE: The Resistance fighters begin the final assault on Skynet's artificial Cheyenne mountain.
2037 CE: Skynet's outer defenses are broken and it is only a matter of hours before the cold fusion reactor is destroyed, assuring Skynet's defeat. To combat this Skynet orders all remaining troops it controls on the planet, to make for the arctic circle to avoid further detection. Taking full control of its remaining defenses Skynet buys its assemblers time to create the newest prototype terminator: The T-5000. Upon completion Skynet allows John Conner and the resistance to find their way in to the metal mountain. Within the complex besides Skynet's own data base was its cold fusion core delivering power to its enormous processor potential, as well as the last time displacement device in existence. Having already sent over a thousand terminators to create branch timelines Skynet caused a complete cascade failure of the safety systems. Upon realizing Skynet meant to bury them John Conner ordered a full retreat, ignorant of the troops that slipped through the retreating lines, or of Skynet's newest form now under its total control. That night humanity as a whole celebrated the destruction of their worst enemy unaware of the survival of the deadliest opponent humankind had ever faced.
2040 CE: Since the destruction of its main base; Skynet has infiltrated the main resistance headquarters and currently commanded ten squads of troops. It had taken on the simple name of Johnson, and with the humans supposing it's destruction there was no longer much need for dogs to check for infiltrators, seeing as the splinter machines couldn't field the material to arm them as Skynet had. Of the troops sent to the Artic over 1300 of the H-K drones sent were dismantled for part in the creation of Skynet's current goal: To establish factories on the moon and Mars. This would allow for never before seen quantities of terminators to simple roll over the humans lowered defenses, though it would take time to amass the material and an opening to present itself.
2041 CE: 5% of the Resistance fighters have been discretely converted in to T-3000's
2045 CE: Underneath Conner's own base Skynet has used nanites from the T-3000 to construct the base of a new cold fusion facility. It is planned to be 6km tall and 16km in diameter.
2050 CE: The foundations for the new fortress have been laid underground, and the new fusion core has been activated. Johnson has been promoted to Lieutenant and serves directly under John Conner.
2052: When the war ended there were 9,824 machine and human factions though most were rogue Skynet assets. There are now only 300. 40% of the remaining 500 million humans have been converted to T-3000's and 60% of the resistance is converted.
-An attack by one of the few remaining machine factions presents Skynet an opportunity. During the attack a plasma grenade is detonated in the command post, killing Resistance leader John Conner and most of Resistance High Command. Conner's body along with two lieutenants are recovered. One is LT Johnson.
-Resistance begins to fracture with little leadership
-70% of remaining Human population converted.
- Skynet's ships are complete, utilizing thousands of nuclear batteries, the two ships break atmosphere on December 10, 2055
2060-Skynet has factories that cover 30% of the Luna's surface and 10% of Mars surface, there are a total of 20 fusion cores on both colonies.
-Skynet reveals its survival, unleashing billions of T-800's, 1000's, 1,000,000 and T-X's, upon the remaining 100 million humans.
-The new system core is complete, towering 6km over the surrounding area.
-All other factions have been dominated
2078 CE: Skynet has cornered the last of humanity in a valley. Though they fight they are destroyed under waves of T-3000 those once their friends and allies now sworn enemies.
-Humanity is declared extinct and Skynet the Earths sole inhabitant.
-Skynet has cataloged every species on Earth mammal, reptile, aquatic, bacteria, even viruses and creates an enormous habitat 500 km X 500 km divided in to subsections for each animal. It does this so as to keep a record of all species that it could encounter terrestrial and not that could pose a threat to it at any point in time. Skynet does not recreate Humanity though it has intimate knowledge of their physical forms and complete DNA structure, due to the possibility of rebellion and escape.
2085 CE: Luna's surface is completely covered in automated factories and R&D facilities. Mars surface is 20% covered. An unknown signal is detected 1km under Mars's surface. A battalion of T-800's is sent to investigate.
