Timeline errors in Into The Crucible

[Faënril]

Hello,

I will run Into The crucible soon.

I notices that in the Universe Today, the dates do not seem to be correct.

example for the Module 1 : the date is the 5th of january 2259 : the articles cover the Trigati attack as arriving the same day (it was the 8 or 9th) like the arrival of Sheridan in the station. moreover, there is a mention about tehcnomages two weeks before the date of "Geometry of Shadows"

any errata for this campaign ?

 

[Shadow Queen]

should be in the B5 rpg section at the bottom

here is the errors I spotted.

The date of the first Universe Today and-out for Into The Crucible is January the 15th.

- Minbari Kamikaze Attack a Colossal Bluff : a special report about the Trigati attack the same day of the article. but the Trigati Incident, in Points of Departure happens seven days before : January the 8th, ans that is confirmed in the Coming of Shadows sourcebook.

- New Commander Takes His Seat on B5’s Command Deck : the arrival of Sheridan on B5 which, from the article, happens the day before....Sheridan arrives the 7th or the 8 th but not the 15 th.

- Mysterious Techno-mages Spotted on Babylon 5 : according to The Geometry of Shadows, the Techno-mages begins to arrive on B5 the 25th, ten days after this article....

- Security Chief Garibaldy still in coma : in that article, Franklin hust happen to think there might be an alternative solution to save Garibaldi from coma, but he does not mention what it is. According to Revelations, this is the Alien Machine he took on 1st season....Revelations happens two days after this article..

I am not the hard core type fan, but I try to run a B5 campaign and try to keep the canon timeline correct in order to affects the players characters accordingly.. I alrealdy noticed the same kind of errors when I ran The Fiery trial, Is it possible to have an updated and corrected hand outs for Fiery Trial and Into the crucible ?
