  1. Master Scenario Events List (MSEL) Conference February 16, 2012

  2. What Is a Master Scenario Events List? • Chronological listing of scripted events that generate activity in specific functional areas in support of exercise objectives • Functional exercise (FE) – Drives participant play • Full-scale exercise (FSE) – Supplements active play • Contains injects • Scenario events that prompt players to implement the plans that the exercise is designed to test • Short MSEL – lists the inject, delivery time, short description, responsible controller, and receiving player • Long MSEL – detailed description, exact quotes and formats for inject, and description of expected action

  3. Elements of an Inject • Designated scenario time • Event synopsis • Controller responsible for delivering inject • Expected action • Intended player • Objective to be demonstrated • Notes section

  4. Types of MSEL Items Contextual Injects • Controller to player • Build contemporary operating environment Contingency Injects • Controller to player • Events communicated to players if they do not occur • Necessary for play to continue and reach exercise objectives • Lessons • Learned: • When reading message injects, simulators should be as realistic and emotional as possible.

  5. Types of MSEL Items Expected Action Events • Holding place in MSEL • Notify controllers when an expected action would typically occur

  6. How to Develop a Master Scenario Events List • Review exercise objectives and scenario • Review plans to determine expected actions • Develop a timeline of anticipated player actions • Identify a chronology of key actions that must occur, either scripted or actual • These can be accomplished by function and/or jurisdiction • Develop these using a MSEL program or template • Compile all MSEL events into a single list and vet with participants • Refine selected MSEL events and complete long version

  9. Scenario • What are the assumptions / artificialities of the scenario? • Will we play real world weather conditions? • Will we use an artificial exercise date? • Will we operate on compressed time or real time? • Will we replicate real world or artificial distances in the interest of time? • Which agencies should participate on paper only? • Is support needed by dispatch or other agencies not participating in exercise play?
