Pre-rifts Timeline

I came up with my own (but keeping in mind it is made for my view of things to a degree)

I am very opinionated. Yes I rub people the wrong way but at the end of the day I just enjoy good hard discussion and will gladly walk away agreeing to not agree :D

Nice work on this. Some favorite points:
The First Slayer
Steve Austin & Jamie Summers
Robocop

The only thing that I include on my timeline that you don't is the Nightlords. I really use the Nightbane lore to add into Rifts and in my timeline I tie in the First Slayer.

Remember... most of the Nightlords will be dead!
Remember Hiroshima? The rapid destruction of a city will destroy the Nightlands city and the Nightlord With it...
Nuclear war, Tsunamis, Dimensional effects, a few million demons...
There are going to be a lot of dead Nightlords.
The rules are not a bludgeon with which to hammer a character into a game. They are a guide to how a group of friends can get together to weave a collective story that entertains everyone involved. We forget that at our peril.

I wiped out almost two thirds of the Nightlords. I have them as really only having a presence in the Pacific Rim with vast areas of Nighlands completely unreachable. But I do include them in a lot of the history of my Rifts Earth to give more of an evil ancient civilization to add to Atlantis & Lemuria.

Why do you have Roanoke disappearances occuring in 1890 instead of 1590?

1874 - Charles Fort is born. His work and research of anomalous phenomena would go on to inspire many people late in his life and after his death in 1932 to continue such research as well as influencing many a parapsychologist later in the 20th century, most notably Victor Lazlo.

1975 - infamous Amity Island shark attacks occur

1988 - Nakatomi Tower terrorist incident
I am very opinionated. Yes I rub people the wrong way but at the end of the day I just enjoy good hard discussion and will gladly walk away agreeing to not agree :D

I finally got around to reading your timeline. I'm a fan. This is good stuff.

How can we not give you due support and credit?
