Hi. I'm new to the game. I read the n00b guides, and am now looking for some donations for my new nation. Anyone want to go ahead and donate? I'll take anything, graciously.

1) £1 Billion Republican Marks (approx 2 billion USD)

Charity soemtime works and soemtimes it doesn't, a better answer is to bide your time, forge some links and see if you can come up with something we all want.

As an offer i make you this:
Give me 18,000men, i'll train, equipment and mould them into a UK Style ready division, In return i ask that you sign a non agression pact, open your ports and airfeilds (or provide me land to biuld such things for you) and grant me use of said division as i require it for the next 10 years (10 NS days). i will also offer you a 25% discount on all sales from Crookfur arms as part of the deal.

Agrigento: Thank you!

Crookfur: I don't really have such nice things yet... lol. If you can build and give me specs, I'd be much greatful. Thank you so much!

Xaser - relying on charity isn't the way to build a strong economy - try trade instead. What are your nation's main industries - we may be interrested in a trade pact...

Edolia would be willing to purchase 100 square kilometers of mountainous terrain with an outlet to the sea. We would like to build some military bases and would be willing to pay $1,200,000,000.

Please respond with your answer.

If you join the region of Sultane Gol, I, MBCRCN will give you 20,000,000,000 crowes (40,000,000,000 USD) and 2,000 OBT117s (O'Brien Tank 117) to jumpstart your economy and military.

Bring that price up to 1.5 Billion, you get 50km, 2.5 Billion, you get 100km.

That's perfect for me. You can start sending in construction crews ASAP. If it wouldn't be too much to ask, too, could you get me the EXACT specs on every single thing there?

ooc: You really can't use your puppet nations like that. Considered Godmodding in most circles.

Fancy setting up a trade agreement, whereby I agree to reduce by 50% the import taxes on trout from your nation in return for you waiving import taxes on Lemonade from my nation? That way I get a littlemore business for my lemonade manufacturing industry (your nation is very small, after all), and you get a lot more trade for your trout-farming industry ( my nation has a pop'n of over 1.045 billion - imagine how much trout they eat in a year!)
24-09-2003, 00:04
Mmmmhhhh... .very good idea! I accept, Wymberg. Trout are $13 apice, not seasoned. Specify some seasonings/marinade/packaging, and I'll give you a new price. For now, the packaging is just an air sealed bag.
24-09-2003, 00:14
Sounds a little steep to me - $11 per trout and you have a deal.

Lemonade at the equivalent of US$0.50 - that's for a 2-litre recyclable bottle full. Made with real lemons!

Also, we're willing to sell you JIF-style lemon-juice concentrate (goes well with fish, eg. salmon, tuna and - oh, hey, yeah, trout) for the equivalent of US$0.25

Done. $2.5 billion is being wired and Edolian construction crews are being transported to set up military bases.

Agrigento wishes to protect its investment, therefore we will provide you with left over military equipment and "Temporary Protectorate" status. This just means if you get in trouble (economically, politically, or militarily) we will help you out, as long as it doesnt disturb our other foreign interests or national security.

In total the following military equipment will be sent:

500 C1 Ariete Mk1's
600 B1 Centauro Tank Destroyers
10,000 Beretta AR 70/90 assault rifles
100 F-16's
200 Tornados

I know these do not equal a balanced, or formidable amount of equipment on their own, but when supplemented by your own armed forces they should add in effectiveness and lethality.
