This game takes place in fictional Universe, almost entirely, but not quite, unlike ours. The Year is 2020, and the world has seen many great Wars. Our nation, found itself at the losing end of one of these, and was forcibly disarmed, loosing most of it's former influence and glory, effectively becoming a puppet state controlled by the coalition that defeated it. While the nation was allowed to rebuild, and shortly began to prosper not much time had past before our former oppressors became embroiled in a serious war themselves, and took us with them.
Though our country was not heavily involved, the scars of the war had a lasting effect on our society, and the fate of our nation. The fighting was not over however. Their eyes opened to the oppression, the people of our nation have revolted and overthrown our puppet government. Looking back upon it's ancestral history, the Emperor's position was reinforced and a more traditional government installed. And peace and prosperity restored. This is however not a time for festivities as war is once again looming over our country. Our neighbors have refused to recognize our country, and covet our lands.
So Today is the first day of your new job, as head of our nation's only institution on military development. Our military has long been heavily restricted, and most of the navy has been seized, or has been sunk to avoid falling into enemy hands. Our equipment is seriously outdated, and the threat of war once again looms over the nation. You've been given control of one of our more advanced bases.

Designer notes:
I am using plenty of abstractions and best guesses. So well, when giving details, please say what's special about them.
I will occasionally come in with demands from the government and military to develop a general/specific type of thing. You are otherwise permitted to design any kind of hardware you like. Note that the more outlandish technologies you propose may be impossible, have severe drawbacks, or take far more resources than you have to develop. Even for entirely reasonable projects, there will be some element of chance where what you want to produce will end up costing more or less than you anticipated, or what you get may not exactly match your proposed design.
Design of vehicle and ships is a large project, design of new large weaponry is a medium project, and modifications of either and small weaponry design are a small project.
Rules1. All proposals must be bolded
2. All proposals must have an unique number
-In case of accidental duplication, please split in 6a and 6b, or add one to the end of the queue. Don't move up everything else. That causes confusion
3. All proposals must be marked as a Large, Medium or Small project.
4. Design proposals begin at 1, for each year
-Proposals continued from last year will be placed in italics, and include the year before the number. (Only do this for proposals that were worked upon).
5. Production proposals begin at A, for each year.
6. Other proposals, like reorganization of the team or political war plan suggestions will be marked using the Greek alphabet
7. Proposals and Votes are unlimited. Please don't abuse this.
8. Each proposal that doesn't follow these rules will be terminated with extreme prejudice.
Example: 1. I propose we mount lasers on sharks 1920:1 Seeing as the project wasn't finished last year due to a shark shortage, I propose we continue with mutated Sea Bass1: All rules for proposals apply except the following.
2: Modifications to proposals will have a number in the format of proposal.sub-proposal.
3: A modification may be supportive (default) or a counter (must be explicit).
4: You can vote for a Proposal and it's supportive subproposal, but not for a proposal and it's counter subproposal.
1.1 I think we should go all the way and mount the National Ignition Facility on the head of a sharkasourus.
1.2 I counter propose that we should instead create lasers that shoot beams composed of sharks. Format for votes1: you must specify the proposal number explicitly.
2: you must use the word vote.
3: Each user should make all of their votes with one post if possible
4. You should edit in your vote into the proposal tracker (template below). Always use the latest quoted example.
