The Connor MacLeod Timeline

Listed below are the sources for the information contained on these pages. Be warned that right now, I don't have access to all my material, so this is coming entirely from memory. When I get my stuff unpacked and get some time, I'll fix it up. Be also warned that, like I said on the opening page, some of the dates are purely conjecture on my part. Some also came from the excellent "Highlander History" volumes put out by Jimmi Smith-Schneider (and my apologies if I bunged up the name) though I've since independently verified to my satisfaction her dates and made some modifications I felt were needed. I freely admit that most everything I know about history, I learned from Highlander, so if anyone has any corrections, please let me know.

Notes on my terminology:

• "movie novel" refers to the novelization of the first film available through the Highlander Store
• "card game" refers to info from the Highlander card game from Thunder Castle
• "script" refers to the final draft of the script for the first film, by Greg Widen, Peter Bellwood and Larry Ferguson
• "first draft" refers to Greg Widen's first draft of the original screenplay
• the 'Highlander III' script referenced is the first draft by Brad Mirman, the only one I currently have
• "JSS" refers to Jimmi Smith-Schneider's "Highlander: The Films - A Historical Perspective" (now unpacked); most of these dates I've verified independently (or possibly disagreed with) but the ones with this attribution are those that I haven't been uncovered myself so I'll go along with them for now. Make sense?

Hopefully, everything else is self-explanatory. If not, feel free to ask questions.
