We will take two. However as we plan on refitting them significantly, perhaps the price could be adjusted...

Omega Destroyers? The Nova-X test bed still is years away from completion. We do have Nova dreadnoughts, but they are not for sale.

Soviet Haaregrad & Telcordia: Price is a billion, ships are packed and standing by.

Money is sent. These ships will join our three native built corvettes, after we modify them to be "standard".

Omega Destroyers? The Nova-X test bed still is years away from completion. We are willing to lower the price to a billion per unit.

Soviet Haaregrad & Telcordia: Price is a billion, ships are packed and standing by. Excellant since you seem willing to lower your prices lets drop it down to .75 Billion... (when haggleing its allways best to make a conteroffer even if thats the price you want, theres a reason or country is a Captailist Paradise :wink: ) also how many units do you have for sale we are very interested...

We have eight hundred for sale. We are willing to go as low as 500 million, but only for bulk orders. We're also willing to accept payments in installments. We thank you all for your business.
