For the record in RAAM's Shadow Time Line

[Gearslover01]

RAAM's Shadow's timeline is said to be 'shortly; after E-day. RAAM's Shadow takes place 9-10 YEARS AFTER E-DAY. This is because Barrick was a stranded who joined the COG via OP. Lifeboat which began 9 A.E. but Myrrah talks to RAAM as they look foreward to crushing Ephyra which is 10 A.E. I don't know where people are getting it's a couple of days after E-day, it's a looooong time after that.

There are a few plot holes. Normal for all forms of media.
