Hello Hubert Figuière,

Thank you for adding the information from GURPS Traveller (GT) Interstellar Wars. Donald McKinney's Integrated Timeline includes the dates from GT.

I do have a copy of GT Interstellar Wars, but is packed in a box that has a stuff piled on top making getting to it a bit time consuming.

According to CT Alien Module 6 page 5 the first encounter with the "Vilani Empire" came in "2096"/-2,422 when an US Space Force's expedition from a stopover/refueling point "about one parsec" out jumped to Barnard's Star and "encountered an alien culture".  Unfortunately, CT as far as I've found does not provide any indication of when Terrans developed a J2 and we vaguely know that the J3 drive was developed sometime around the 8th Interstellar War and used effectively during the 9th Interstellar War. MT provides more hints with more hints found in GURPS Traveller.
