The Office of Naval Research is sponsoring feasibility studies to determine the feasibility of a pilot project that seeks to extend the genres of Massive Multiplayer Online Gaming and Alternate Reality Games to scenarios of interest to Navy. The title of the project is 'Massive Multiplayer Online Wargame Leveraging the Internet (MMOWGLI)'. By extending game play to a large pool of participants who can play out a scenario collectively online, it is envisioned that MMOWGLI will foster the exploration of many more novel combinations of ideas and interactions than available by traditional means.
ONR plans on a crawl-walk-run approach to MMOWGLI, with the crawl stage consisting of a pilot. To that end, ONR is soliciting industry feedback on the feasibility of, and suggested approaches to, executing the MMOWGLI pilot, as described in the remainder of this document. Responses will be used by ONR to craft an eventual Statement of Work (SOW) which may, or may not, be competitively bid.
