Does anyone know of or can point me in the right direction as to a detailed timeline of events during the Wars. I am getting ready to jump into a new campaign and it is starting at the beginning of the wars and i would like a detail of how things transpired.

I know your post is old, but if I'm not too late... DON'T SPEND THE MONEY ON THE WARS BOXED SET. It wasn't worth it. Living Greyhawk gazeteer, the Marklands, Iuz the Evil, City of Skulls, From the Ashes all give info on the wars that you can piece together and get a lot of other material besides.

A friend and I once wasted an entire weekend playing the war.  After something like 30 hours of game time, no major nation had fallen, getting more neutrals to ally was pointless because the game didn't come with enough chits for what we already had, and we called it a draw.

Not a good game to play by any stretch, but battling out the war gives an appreciation why the Greyhawk Wars ended in a peace treaty between exhausted beligerents.
