Hello,
Those are the timelines for random battle generation. Now you can generate battle for the period of 1930-1953 the OOB files support. More information about random battle generation in 2.01 can be found from my Developer Diary #2. Check the Diary #3 as well, they are related.

And there is no way to have more timelines?

Well the Battle Generator menu is limited to these dates, as is the Organization Editor you would typically use to create an organization file to a custom scenario. Apart from those, with -X NoEncryption option you can tweak the Platoon oob files as you wish.
So as long as you are OK to come up withan org file for a scenario, you are good to go anywhere you want to. See the Developer Diary #3 for a small example.
As for timelines and random battles, the front end menu will limit you to these dates.
Hope this answered your question!
