A great list but I'd swap Downtime and Battlefield round as i got the impression that Downtime is after and I'd put the original UNIT series from BF before Aliens in London/World War Three, that seems to work for me, also isnt UNIT Dominion set in the 80's? Ive heard it was

I guess i just got the impression that Doris was dead in Downtime. And i guess its to do with the house that i thought that as well. Thanks for that guys

Marc Platt chose to put Downtime prior to Battlefield because it essentially acts as Millennial Rites's own Mission to the Unknown Doctor-lite cutaway story, despite the two being published in reverse order. I thought that was rather clever. UNIT also make two late 1980s appearances in the comics The Mark of Mandragora and Evening's Empire, respectively, due to the Doctor's introduction to Muriel Frost who makes a quick cameo in The Fires of Vulcan (and may have ended up being murdered with the rest of the specialists in Aliens of London) .

Hello everyone! I've now added the Auton trilogy and 'Wartime' to the U.N.I.T. timeline. Tim.

I've listened to 'The Monkey House' now. At a guess, I'd place this story before 'Last of the Gaderene', since the Third Doctor is absent at that time with Jo and U.N.I.T. If any one wishes for this to be correct, then let me know. Tim.

Latest MR The Helliax Rift belongs in the 1980s section. There's no references with regard to fitting with other stories, but I'd say sometime before Dominion.

I’d put the New series Audios after Day of the Doctor as Osgood references meeting Eleven in the Tower of London I’m Shutdown and meeting three Doctors in Assembled.
Honestly, I have a feeling the next set is going to reveal that they all take place after Death in Heaven but that’s just speculation on my part for now.

Must admit I'm a little puzzled at the decision to place the New UNIT sets the way you have relative to Series 8 and 9. I had been thinking of them being set chronologically just in terms of when they were released in the real world. It's very possible that I've just missed some references that make that impossible, but it seems like it would be the simplest solution.
We also need to update to include The Turn of the Screw (Short Trips) and The Tactics of Defeat (Companion Chronicles). Defeat references Screw so we can safely say one follows the other, while Screw involves searching for the fried sonic screwdriver from The Eleventh Hour. So we have a rough idea of it being sometime after that. Beyond that I don't know, though, so my tendency is to just place them in order of real-world release.

Hour of the Cybermen is set at least five years after The Helliax Rift, but still pre-Dominion.

Warlock’s Cross Update {Spoiler} The main story is post-Dominion. There is also a brief scene set between The Helliax Rift and Hour of the Cybermen.
Warlock’s Cross also provides some firm dates for the trilogy. The Doctor identifies the main setting as 1994 and the events of Helliax are specifically said to be ten years ago, with the past scene 7 and a half years ago. As Hour was said to be approximately 5 years after Helliax, we get this timeline by my reckoning: 1984: The Helliax Rift 1986: Warlock’s Cross (Past Scene) 1989: Hour of the Cybermen 1994: Warlock’s Cross (Main Story)

The Doctor mentions Bambera but the UNIT commander doesn’t recognise her name.

The two latest UNIT sets are definitely before Dark Water/Death in Heaven.
It’s still unclear whether the UNIT Series is Pre or Post Day Of The Doctor, as it appears that Osgood refers to having encountered the Doctor in one set, but then acts as though she’s never met him in another, and there’s not really any room to switch the order of the sets around.
One thing that is clear though, is that the entire series is post-Power of Three and Pre-Death in Heaven, due to references to the Shakri invasion and Osgood’s pride at meeting the Master and surviving. Along with the Master noting that he’ll have to kill her another time.

Narcissus is set after Series 9 as UNIT have already lost one Osgood.
It also kind of reveals which Osgood died in Death in Heaven.

Having finally gotten around to listening to UNIT: Shutdown, I can say that the reference in it to the Eleventh Doctor in the Tower of London is far too vague to base the whole timeline around.
In the first episode, Osgood is giving her friend a tour of the Tower of London using a thought projector as she is telling him about UNIT and intends to recruit him. Mid conversation the TARDIS can be heard materialising and the doors opening. Osgood’s friend then questions who the man in the bow-tie is, but Osgood handwaves The Question and says something about not letting your mind wander while using the machine.
To me that could equally mean that she’s just daydreaming about the Doctor potentially comingnto the Tower of London as it could mean that she’s thinking about the events of Day of the Doctor. Seeing as all other sets pretty much imply a pre-Day of the Doctor setting, I think it’s best to leave the UNIT sets in order and before Day of the Doctor.
There’s really not any sufficient evidence to place it later, other than the fact that Osgood’s characterisation is much stronger in the Audios than it was in Day of the Doctor.
