Timeline (Titanic, the Luckiest Ship in the World)

April

 * Two close calls on the Titanic's Maiden Voyage, where a smaller ship nearly rammed into the larger ship, and minor damage caused by an iceberg, resulted in the ship becoming to be known as the "Luckiest Ship in the World."

May

 * The Titanic is fully repaired, and is taken on her second voyage by Captain J. B. Ranson, who pilots the ship until the outbreak of World War One.

July

 * The Titanic was at sea when the announcement that Great Britain had entered the war was announced. However, the message was delayed to being taken to the bridge (as the Passengers were still the primary concern of the wireless operators), and a destroyer flotilla fired upon the Titanic when arriving in the English Channel, believing it was a German ship. No damage was caused.

August

 * The Titanic is converted to an Armed Merchant cruiser, in order to hold off hostile forces while sailing, and, if possible, sink other AMC's.

September

 * The Titanic, with the Cunard Line's RMS Carmania, sail to Trinidade and sink the German AMC SMS Cap Trafalgar in a massive battle, where the Titanic had the last funnel blown off, and the Carmania was hit in the superstructure and damaged. Both ships were hurriedly repaired in Bermuda, and the Carmania was dispatched to patrol the African coast. The Titanic was pulled back to Britain, where the larger ship was considered to expensive to be run as a axillary cruiser.

October

 * The Olympic, still in service, is pursued by four U-boats with orders to sink the Titanic for the Battle of Trinidade, but mistaken the two ships. The Olympic diverts to Glasgow, but, after the distress calls from the HMS Audacious (which had just struck a mine) turned to rescue the sinking battleship, while a Royal Navy Squadron manages to sink one of the submarines pursuing the larger passenger liner. The Battleship, however, is not towed to port, but the majority of its crew are rescued. The Olympic and Titanic are now withdrawn from service for the duration of the war, as the damage to the Titanic is more serious than originally believed, and the tactic of using large passenger liners as Armed Merchant ships is done away with.

September
The Titanic and Olympic are pressed into service as Troop transports, due to the enormous need for shipping. Both ships are sent to Halifax to pick up Canadian divisions, which are taken straight to the Gallipoli campaign, which is able to turn the tide and force the defending Turkish troops to withdraw. The Titanic makes a trip to Marseilles to pick up a British Infantry division to continue the Dardanelles campaign straight to Constantinople, which surrenders in October. Ottoman Turkey is out of the war.
