Talk:Command Family Tree

Talk:UFOP Family Tree/Timeline

This would be interesting to see... how will it work though?

"Fleet Captain Rocar Drawoh | Talk"

Other methods...

Might be better to use a list, or perhaps use a Geneology software, like Geni :) --Wolf /^{talk page} 19:50, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Possible tree...

Here's one using the list format. It's a little more complete, but there's tons of history in the Reports that you could uncover and make a more complete picture. --Wolf /^{talk page} 20:00, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

On top of the inverted version of Rocar's, I've just been looking at a column version showing when each ship's been about... 118Wiki:Sand Box#Year chart. That puts it in date perspective, and if things don't get too complicated, it could be done in such a way to show where ships predominantely split from or merged to (see Triumhpant and Indy for a merge). Given a CO tends to command a ship that splits from the ship of the CO that taught them... (though I've put Tiger as suceeding Ursa, that could be worked to show a merge, albeit a tad clumsily as crew transferring to Tiger from Ursa never joined Indy) - Lt. Salak^Talk 20:08, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

That looks great Salak.

I think this page could do with a little preambule. Then the table I've started followed by your table... both lots of info/ ways of presenting it would be good together.

Cheers for the extra info Admiral.. I was kinda going from memory (hence why its a bit one sided towards the Hollis Branch of the family tree right now). Will work it in.

In the long run years for these captains would be handy if anyone can be bothered finding them out! ..I'm putting question marks where im not sure for now.

"Fleet Captain Rocar Drawoh | Talk"

I added a couple for McGregor... She commanded Wallace roughly June -> Sept 2000, with Jay Ross (her previous XO) taking over from her until decommissioning... which I'd thought was about Nov 2001 but now seems to be sometime in 2002; sims are on the Victory mailing list. - Lt. Salak^Talk 21:23, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Oh, and my years table quite obviously focuses on the Indy line, mainly cos that's the section I've always simmed in so know best. My knowledge of the Victory seems a bit patchy though. - Lt. Salak^Talk 21:24, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Alder == Adler; you probably shouldn't have her in there twice. Tekra 18:21, 13 July 2008 (EDT)

Certain that they're one and the same person? - Lt. Salak^Talk 08:49, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

Yes. Captain Adler Wong-Aquiss's mirror universe persona was Captain Alder. --Wolf /^{talk page} 21:00, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

Mcgregor

Did McGregor come from Shaun Marlin or from Brian Kelly?

"Fleet Captain Rocar Drawoh | Talk"

Marlin on Indria, just double checked it. Was getting the Indria and the Ranger mixed up; Ranger was Kelly's... then Terra's, then Skye's, though was Skye simmed by Wolf? - Lt. Salak^Talk 21:46, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Ok so I have him descending from Marlin and Marlin descending from Kelly... but I suspect that might be wrong. Should Marlin be on the same level as Kelly (descending from Wolf?)

Also where does Capt Vedoc fit in... is he between Hollish and Raferty?

"Fleet Captain Rocar Drawoh | Talk"

Certainly branches off Rendary, dunno if it's same level as Hollis or in between the two; just seen him on the "Kodiak" looking up Ursa Major & Kodiak-B dates. My turn to forget to sign for a change: - Lt. Salak^Talk 22:18, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Vedoc's between the two; Rendary commanded the original Kodiak, Cpt Vedoc had the Kodiak-A then Cmdr Hollis took that over from him before replacing it with the Kodiak-B just after Anassasi launched on the first Indy if I've pieced the profile info together right, and read the Kodiak mission logs page correctly :) - Lt. Salak^Talk 22:21, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

Problem piecing the timeline together... there are some mentions of Anassasi as CO of the Conny, but the Indy list only shows her on the two Indys, along with Phoenix and I think possibly one other ship (not Conny). I know she'd been on Kodiak before command but I don't know bout this gap... may have to ask her. - Lt. Salak^Talk 12:22, 9 July 2008 (EDT)

Floating CO's and Ships

Can anyone work out how to fit the following Captain's into the tree:

? Sven Tray ? Jeff Pelletier ? Adler Wong-Aquiss ? Skyfire ? San Aquiss ? Jesa Callen

I'm not sure of their ships or decendance?

"Fleet Captain Rocar Drawoh | Talk"

Based on wiki pages for respective ships;

Skyfire > "Alder" > Mike James - USS Obertha (Skyfire only) then USS Ronin (1st service, all three in turn)

Pelletier (Freedom-A) > San' Aquiss (Freedom-A, Nemesis-A, Ops) > Demma (Nemesis-A, Freedom-A (renamed Defiance, attached to DS72), Deep Space 72) > Wong-Aquiss (Nemesis-B (renamed from Defiance), NX Nemesis (Nemesis-C, aka Achilles))

Flt Cpt Sven Tray (Isannah)

Jolon (Isannah) > McHendry (temp; isannah) > Laang (Isannah, Magellan).

Alucard (Isannah) > Callen (Isannah)

...though as there's a break between each of those Isannah chains, I don't know how closely linked they are. Nor do I have any dates. - Lt. Salak^Talk 11:34, 9 July 2008 (EDT)

Pelletier was Kanist's XO on Centris in late 1996, would seem to be on that branch of the tree. Confirmed (Reporter #6) that Flt Cpt Sven of the Isannah is the same person as Sven Tray. - Lt. Salak^Talk 12:08, 9 July 2008 (EDT)

I'm fairly certain Adler became a CO long before Demma was. She may have taken over a vessel from Demma, but if my memory serves, that was on her second tour of duty. Originally, she descended from someone else. I would also move Pelletier's branch, as you mentioned, under Elinor. --Wolf /^{talk page} 21:04, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

From my records, there are numerous instances of Alucard being presented awards by Jolon, so I'm going to assume he took over the Isannah from her. --Wolf /^{talk page} 21:17, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

Names still missing

Missing a couple names: O'Malley (Hammond, Jolon trained), Demma(Multiple), Randor(StarWind, Elinor trained), Jacobs (Ithaca?), VonGrippen (untrained), Keldor (Galileo) ... did Mike James ever make command? Edward Kingson (that's me, though, and I'd rather be on the list as my Executive Council character) Tekra 13:46, 9 July 2008 (EDT)

Demma's listed under Elinor above. Mike James captained the Ronin, and thus is listed above under Alder & Skyfire, though we're not currently sure where Skyfire fits in (was he USS StarWind? Seem to recall reading bout them joining from outside or something? My memory may be mixing stuff up though). - Lt. Salak^Talk 13:51, 9 July 2008 (EDT)

Mistakes

Can anyone spot any mistakes in the article so far?

"Fleet Captain Rocar Drawoh | Talk"

I've been trying to add info to the list above as I've skimmed through the Reporters. Nothing glaring as yet. - Lt. Salak^Talk 19:46, 10 July 2008 (EDT)
