JanuaryEdit

• January 1st: SRPA intelligence notes that there hasn't been any major Chimeran assault on the United States since July 23, 1952. It is believed that the completion of the Liberty Defense Perimeter has drastically altered the Chimeran strategy.

Dr. Malikov reports that the Chimeran nuclear reactors is somewhere in the area and also the tower is connected to another towers via massive underground power conduits. Malikov believe that if they destroy the nuclear reactors in the surrounding tower, which will trigger the unstable chain reaction along the tower network and destroy the tower in Bryce Canyon and also several connected towers, using the same technique from Nathan Hale. ^[11]

• May 31st: Specter Team has successfully eliminated most of the Chimeran command structure in Bryce Canyon. The gray tech components recovered from Bryce Canyon are sent to SRPA 11, where the research team has found increasing evidence to support Dr. Julia Cathcart's theory of the "Prometheus Weapon". SRPA assumes that Daedalus is attempting to reassemble the weapon, making acquisition of the gray tech components a top priority.^[16]
