Best Mystaran post-almanac timeline?

May 31, 2005 17:20:43 Hi all,

I currently run an OD&D campaign set in Mystara, and my players are racing their way through the timeline (what with downtime spent in training weapon mastery slots etc etc).

Now, its not an immediate crisis; we're only at 1005, but I was wondering about what to do after we get to the limit of the published mystaran almanacs (1013, was it?).

I know there are a few websites, fansites, with post-1013 timelines in the almanac style.. are they the same? If not, which ones are considered the best written.. can anyone provide very basic summaries of any major (especially world-changing) events forecast by these timelines?

I assume there's no one "official" timeline, but is there one that is most popular among the mystara-fandom crowd?

I'd think the most widely accepted would be the Mystaran Almanacs on Pandius (which has a lot of other useful timelines and info as well; It's a Mystara fan's candy store!)

or this?

Are they the same timelines, all three? or totally seperate projects?

These are all the same, created by the Mystaran Almanac project team.

May 31, 2005 18:32:52 Ah, ok. Thank you very much for the info. I was concerned they might all be divergent timelines, and it would be hard to tell without very thuroughly going through all three websites.

So I take it that this timeline changes important things but doesn't go all crazy, right? I mean, they don't actually destroy Thyatis or somesuch thing?

I haven't read them through, just bits and pieces, so I don't know any details. Some of the people that post here helped with putting these almanacs together so they may be able to give you a better overall desciption.
