Não tenho certeza absoluta de qual é a sua pergunta aqui, mas para confirmar: As Guerras Clônicas acontecem entre os Epsiodes II e Episódios III. Lucas confirmou isso em em entrevistas :
Q: Why is it important for you to tell the story of The Clone Wars?
A: The interesting thing about the Clone Wars is that in the films, in the normal course of the Skywalker saga, it’s skipped over. You hear about it, but you only see the very beginning and the very end of the wars. But this was a turning point for the Republic. Star Wars: The Clone Wars connects Episodes II and III. As a TV series, it gives more depth and understanding about how Republic fell, and what a fantastic hero Anakin Skywalker was. We got focused on him turning into Darth Vader, that it’s easy to forget that he was one of the biggest heroes of the entire Clone War. I think seeing him as a great Jedi Knight reminds you that before it gets dark and tragic, Star Wars is a fun adventure story, too.
Com relação aos erros de continuidade Geral Grievous / Anakin Skywalker (ou seja, eles não se conhecem), não tenho conhecimento de nenhum momento nos prequels que eles realmente conheceram . Eles podem estar cientes um do outro, mas isso não significa que eles se reconheceriam.
Claro, isso não significa que não haja outras discrepâncias na série. Nossos amigos da Sci Fi Stack teve uma pergunta sobre os principais problemas de continuidade criados pela série e respondeu com alguns. Para levantá-los e deslocá-los do link postado:
From: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Retcon
"Since Episode IV, the Republic was known to have fought the Clone Wars, and the EU added several other conflicts, such as the Great Sith War; but in Episode II, it was stated that "there hasn't been a full-scale war since the formation of the Republic." The above-mentioned Ruusan Reformation also handled this discrepancy."
"Timothy Zahn, in his Thrawn trilogy, cast the Clone Masters as the opponent of the Galactic Republic in the Clone Wars, as several authors of the '90s considered that the cloners and their clones were the "villains." However, after Attack of the Clones revealed the clones were on the Republic's side, the Clone Masters were retconned into being renegades who did not attack until after the formation of the Empire."
From: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Wars:_The_Clone_Wars_(TV_series)
"One example of a direct contradiction between The Clone Wars and Clone Wars is the use of Eta-2 Actis-class light interceptors at the same point in the timeline Anakin is knighted, whereas in The Clone Wars Delta-7B Aethersprite-class light interceptors are used, which were ostensibly used before the later Eta-2s. "
"For example, in the novelization, Anakin remarks that he has only read about Grievous' Magnaguards in an intel report, despite having fought them in the show."
"Another very noticeable continuity error is the fact that Anakin has his scar which he received shortly after the Battle of Rendili from Asajj Ventress. He then injured Ventress so severely she was forced to recuperate until the Battle of Boz Pity, after which she deserts the CIS and the war for good. However, as he was originally shown to receive his scar in 19 BBY, yet the series takes place in 21 BBY, this is a glaring continuity error."
Thanks to @Sam for these.
Acho que, em um universo desse tamanho, as discrepâncias estão fadadas a ocorrer. As maiores e mais notáveis foram retransmitidas . Os outros provavelmente não eram.
