Exercise Assumptions
The exercise will be conducted in a no-fault
learning environment wherein systems and
processes, not individuals, will be evaluated
The exercise scenario is plausible, and results
occur as they are presented
Exercise simulation will be realistic and
plausible, and will contain sufficient detail
from which players can respond
Participating agencies may need to balance
exercise play with real-world emergencies
–
Real-world emergencies take priority
[Others as needed]

Exercise Artificialities
Exercise communication and coordination
is limited to participating exercise
organizations, venues, and the Simulation
Cell (SimCell)
Only communication methods listed in the
Communications Directory are available
for players to use during the exercise
[Simulated organizations/jurisdictions,
venues or agencies]
[Actor interactions]
[Others as needed]
9
Player Communications
All exercise communications begin and
end with the statement:
[
“This is an
exercise”
]
Any communications intended for non-
playing jurisdictions/organizations are
directed to the Simulation Cell (SimCell)
In the event of a real emergency, say
[
“This is a Real-World Emergency”
]
[Communication procedures]
