Ok, I've been wondering this for a while. wtf is wyrdysm (as in the name, i know its the company)? and wtf does it have to do with battleships forever? and how on earth do you pronounce it?

I don't know the meaning, but I think it is pronounced word-ism

I don't think it's a Welsh term. I suppose it's based on the Nordic word Wyrd which is a really weird concept to get your head round but roughly means something like the way a person's past actions in life affect their future, like a sort of karma.
