[FR] Adventure title timeline?

Alzrius

The EN World kitten
There are quite a few Forgotten Realms timelines out there. One thing I noticed, however, is that most of them assume you're familiar with virtually every specific product enough that they don't have to refer to it by name.

Entries may be dated something like, 1369 DR: Demons in an obscure northern dungeon, having relocated there from Hellgate Keep, are routed by adventurers. but nothing would tell you that that's the Dungeon of Death adventure. A lot of timelines don't put the product titles in there.

Some, admittedly, do reference sourcebooks, like The North and the various novels. But none seem to have product titles for adventures. Does anyone out there know of an FR timeline that has the titles for adventures listed in it? (official timelines only please, homebrews aren't helpful)

The similarity in internet FR timelines is simply due to the fact that around 90% of them are copied from the same base source (namely, the "Complete Forgotten Realms Timeline" on my webpage, the basis of which came from two posts to the FR-L List by myself and George Krashos). I've often thought of going back and adding in product references, but it would require far more time and effort than I currently have available.

My suggestion would be to check out the "Temporal Chronology of the Primes" on THIS SITE. Brian did it right from the start, adding references as his work grew. I don't know if it has the "adventure references" you're looking for, but it may be a good place to start.

Hope that helps,
 

Thanks AJA. Sadly, the timeline there did not have specific product references for individual entries in most cases, let alone ones for adventures. I'm also rather dubious of it since I picked up a number of errors in many of the entries, especially where he tried to link the campaign worlds together. The Greyhawk Wars did not take place, Realms-time, from 1379 to 1381 DR.
