The SEEKRIEG Admiralty
The SEEKRIEG ADMIRALTY was officially formed in 2001 as an informal group of wargamers dedicated to naval history
and ongoing development of SEEKRIEG. Although all of the current membership has been involved in the playtesting
and development of SEEKRIEG 5, other individuals having exhibited a thorough knowledge of the SEEKRIEG system
may be considered for membership.
Shown below are the current active duty members of the Seekrieg Admiralty. In addition to assisting with ongoing design
and playtesting efforts, these members play an important role in developing scenarios and serving as Game Operations
Director (G.O.D.) for SEEKRIEG 5 events at conventions around the country.
A listing of inactive/reserve status members of the Seekrieg Admiralty can be viewed at
