Sparrow Reconnaissance Aircraft

This is a reliable and rugged aircraft, and is currently the only non-transport aircraft in our Air Corps. This is likely to change, since we have observed enemies in battle using aircraft to attack ground targets, and this is not well suited for that.

Powerplant: 1x 60kw Engine
Maximum Speed: 179 km/h
Service Ceiling: 5334 metres
Range: 500 km
Weapons: 1x Modified Maxim gun mounted inside upper wing (By modified we mean it is set up so the mechanism to tell the gun to fire the rounds is inside the cockpit while the rest of it is not)

Cost: 1,000 Imperas

Pigeon Utility Aircraft

This is our most common aircraft in our air corps. A light transport, perfect for observation, liason, and possibly light attack, although it is again not that suited for it. Very short take-off and landing.

Condor Transport Aircraft

This dedicated transport is used to carry mail, cargo, troops, etc wherever they are needed. Reliable and tough, this makes a fine transport for a earlier technology level nation, or as a cheap transport for a cash-strapped modern tech nation.

10,000 standard issue rifles with bayonets please. As this is an order for the Empire a discount would put you in good favour with us. We may even be able to offer you a commision for your store, a place in the Empire itself even.

Trix, Lord Imperial of the Empire of Trixia

We are always interested in increasing our standing with other nations. We shall give you a 25% discount.

(OOC: Do you play late 1800s to early 1900s tech level too?)

25% sounds very good. Business between yourselfs and the Empire will be more numerous in the future i can assure you. Money Wired, with pleasure.

(ooc: depends on the RP i'm doing at the time really)

OOC: That's alright. This is one in a long line of nations for me. I still have my first one, a near-future tech nation.

IC:

We hope to see relations blossom between our two nations.

2000 rifles and 2000 revolvers. Money wired.

this stuff is ainchient i bet half of it doesent even work come on 21st century impress me

Psst, a .303 round is just as deadly as it was in 1910, even in the future.

even though I are a modern tech nation. I would like 1000 swords at a cost 25000. This will bring my officers some much needed class.

money is automaticaly wired upon confirmation.

The deadly viper: First of all, it does work. Second of all, we play a different tech level. Get over it. And learn to spell. And learn how to properly use English. Please.


Dontgonearthere: Well said.


Unified Sith: Order confirmed.

the second line was meant for the Imperialist guy

The Empire of Roycelandia formally congratulates you on seeing the True Benefits of Imperialism, and on making the most enlightened choice of arming your military with the Mk III SMLE and the Webley Mk VI Revolver.

Roycelandia is a modern nation using updated WWII era equipment- we still fly Spitfires, Sunderlands, Lancasters, and so on, but made from modern materials and heavily updated for today's battlefield. (and we do have modern Jet Fighters etc as well, but they aren't nearly as cool as our Spitfires...)

Our armed forces (The Imperial Guard and the Colonial Guard) are armed with Mk III Lee-Enfields, Jungle Carbines, Bren Guns, and Lewis Guns, and thus far we have established a very large and prosperous empire in the Modern World, focused in Southern Africa with the Colonial Overseas Territory of Port Imperial (Better known as Roycelandian East Africa). Even the Uniforms are reminiscent of a bygone age (See the movie "Zulu" for the uniform the Imperial Guard wear. The Colonial Guard have a similar uniform, but Khaki in colour.)

We would be interested in trading designs etc with your nation as well, and perhaps signing some sort of Trade and Defence Treaty if the situtation permits...

The Commanders in the field love the weapons recently purchased. We would like to purchase 10,000 more rifles, this time with bayonets, and 500 pom-poms.

*money wired*
Grumio

Colodia: We may use more primitive tech, but our strategies are anything but.

Roycelandia: Thank you. Your forces sound extremly interesting.

Grumio: Order confirmed.
