Sentinel Robots For Sale
Greetings, fellow peace-loving nations of the world. Our nation of Academear, comprised entirely of academics who have fleed more base countries, would like to announce our presence on the international scene with a sale of our unique Senti-Bots.
These robots are UNARMED. They are programmed solely for reconnaissance only. Our own batch of 25 prototype sentinels has managed to successfully warn us of a simulated enemy incursion with 78% accuracy. The time these electronic scouts will afford your nation can easily allow you to strategically evacuate many townships.
As the enlightened socialist state of Academear does not accept monetary compensation for its work, we ask that you either pay through barter, or the national currency of Academear: ideas. Technology, a piece of culture, anything your inferior intelects are capable of producing can somehow be put to good use by Academear intelectuals.
So post your order and your payment, and our IT wiz team will automatically process your request - your very own Senti-Bot will be built to your specifications, and delivered to a port of your choosing within 3 days!

Well, my scientists say that they have successfully figured out a way to win every war you ever can get into- We'll give it to you for 25 of these mechs and full prodution rights.
We may be full of philosophical socialists... but we are not so gullible and naive as you would think!
The Dominion of the Ur-Quan has three questions about your "sentinal bots". If we find the answers satisfactory, we will cosider making a purchase.
1. How do they work?
2. What are you selling them for?
3. Can we put weapons on them?

1. How do they work?
The schematics are rather complex, and our intelectual property. All we can say is that they utilize a full spectrum of detection instruments, ranging from sonar to IR, coupled with a complex algroithm designed to patrol a given area.
2. What are you selling them for?
Any legitimate ideas or donations to our defence forces / infrastructure.
3. Can we put weapons on them?
DISCLAIMER: The nation of Academear can in no way be held responsible for the actions of its customers.
With that being said, your independent nation can do anything it wishes with its robots, although we detest violence.
I am sufficiently intruiged.
Please wire me a pricing figure, and I will decide how many to purchase.
An unarmed sentinel is like an anarchist without a pipebomb. I'd never leave home without mine and a sentinel robot shouldn't go unarmed. See The Matrix.

We wish to buy 100 of these robots in exchange for a new propulsion technology utilizing holes in the space-time continuum for lightyear-an-hour travel! Let us know.

everyone already knows how to use the holes in the space-time fabric to travel through space!

No they don't. Do you think modern tech nations do? Idiot...and if they do I can offer them defense equipment from the storefront at a 70% discount.
Hyperdrive is better.

Naa..hyperdrive is much slower than what we've got.
yes, everyone already knows how to do it, we just dont have the equiptment to do it with
The Holy Empire of Piperia would like to inquire as to how large an area one sentinal can patrol
Froggyliciousness - I'll give you ten bucks for that tech, no wait, my chief of science just reported that he has developed a method of cheaply moving objects at several lightyears per second!
Obviously I'm joking, but the point is that I don't believe that you have FTL technology.

How do you know? Look at my storefront..I'm near-future, almost future-tech,
Why
The residents of Academear are firm believers in Einsteinian relativity. We do not accept claims that the speed of light has been traversed without proper documentation.
Please refer to my other post regarding pricing: the wise citizens of Academear only operate with barter, as currency is the devil's own.

That is impossibal. It has been proven that at lightspeed time actualy stops. That would mean that you can not travel faster that the speed of light. You would not move at all.
There are many factors regarding the area a sentinel may patrol. First and foremost, how thorough should it's inspection be? That is the primary factor.
The terrain to be patrolled is also of paramount importance. If it is a city or dense jungle, then there is much noise to interfere with detection, limiting proper roaming range. A barren desert, on the other hand, would be an ideal location.
All told, a single SentiBot can effectively patrol an average area of approximately 10 square kilometers.
Nay, hyperdrive is better.

Fine, since you refused our first offer, how about this:
1,500,000 gallons of the most important compound in nearly every chemical weapon and every nuclear plant- di-hydrogen monoxide. Your nation is getting a killing from this. I mean, for only 25 mechs you get the production rights and 1,500,000 gallons of the prime component in many of the most destructive weapons of our time and the best power sources of our time.
Do you take the people of Academear to be fools? Our nation is surrounded by di-hydrogen monoxide! It is our most abundant resource, as is the case with every island nation!
A recepticle of polyisopropadiene filled with dihydrogen monoxide is a good weapon.
