While flipping through some of the old modules over the weekend, I noticed a few introductory notes about suggested order of play (i.e. which prior modules the GM could use to introduce the current one). With some judicious abuse of a flowcharting tool, I managed to cobble together the following loose map of the order in which GDW suggested all the modules be played.
Green boxes indicate European modules and blue boxes indicate modules set (or at least triggered) in North America. Yeah, King's Ransom is off in the corner by its lonesome. Lines and arrows, obviously, indicate play order. The circles marked "A" and "B" are cross-connection points because direct links into
Gateway to the Spanish Main and
Urban Guerilla would have made the diagram significantly uglier. The Return to Europe modules are linked with dotted lines to indicate my uncertainty about their intended order of play.
Edit: updated version posted below, original version retained here for archival purposes.
Note that this does not include GDW's suggested dates of the events in each module. I'll add those in the next revision... but it may cause some space-time paradoxes.
