What is this place?

Please note - although the sim is in full swing, this subsidiary introductory area is under construction.  If you don't find info you're looking for, contact me directly.

Navalism is a geopolitical role-playing sim, set in a world not quite our own.  Much of our activity is focused on development of our military forces, with international affairs, technology, and economic development playing roles in this.

We play in six-month turns.  Game play typically consists of:

1)  A sim report, in which you describe what your country is doing with respect to building/maintaining a military, research and development, infrastructure development, and economic development.  Some of us use a generic spreadsheet for this; others do it freehand.

2)  Posting new warship designs so that others may be humbled by your awesome skills or, if they're feeling brash, offer critiques.  We design the ships with Springsharp 2; some of us also work on drawings.

3)  Any news you'd like to share in order to add color to your nation and set the context for the stuff you mention in your sim report.  This can resemble newspapers clippings, be short stories, or something else.

4)  Any other discussions you'd like to participate in.
