Forum:SH:Battlefront: Twilight Company is set in 3 ABY, not 18 months after the Battle of Yavin

Battlefront: Twilight Company's page is using misinterpreted info for its date of "18 months after the Battle of Yavin". The paragraph in question is on page 17 but it's referring to when Twilight Company joined in the "push into the Mid Rim", an operation that was "in the wake" of the destruction of the Death Star and not immediately after. The math actually shows the operation in the paragraph would have to be at LEAST 6 months after Yavin.

This is further proven by the subheading for Chapter 1 which says "Thirteen Years After the Clone Wars” and the subheading for Chapter 2 says “Nine Years Later” for a total of 22 years later. The author, Alexander Freed, confirmed in a tweet that the Ch. 1 subheading referred to the end of the Clone Wars. Since the Del Rey timeline at the front places this before Episode V, mathematically this book can only be set in 3 ABY. Later in the book there is also a flashback that is 15 years after the Clone Wars followed by a chapter "7 years later", again confirming 22 years. Theymightbegeeks (talk) 05:48, October 5, 2015 (UTC)
