Dyelli Beybian Officials at the display remained decidedly unimpressed by the rifles and other small armsa on display citing that Dyelli Beybi's selection of AKs was just as good. While they seemed moderately interested in the tanks they expressed worry over the price of production of such vehicles. They showed no interest in the helicopter whatsoever saying they suspected it would likewise be unfeasably unexpensive and probably not as useful as the Ka-52s and Mi-24s currently imn service in the Empire. The vehicle gaining the most interest was the LFV, although they expressed dismay at the lack of armour.

An offer to sell trucks, IFVs, tank destroyers and Squad support weapons to Modern War was made.

Modern War, unhappy with the statement made by Dyelli Beybi. Invited them to the War Games being held in TheTrench region early next month.


Modern War also states that the LFV, even though it has lack of armor, can take small arms fire such as AK-47's and light machine guns to the engine compartment, and the tires without penetration.


Modern War will contact Dyelli Beybi in later times.

Dyelli Beybi will consider the invitation. They would also like to suggest some form of protection for the crew of the LFV as Dyelli Beybi feels they are an important part in the operation of the vehicle.
