PRESS RELEASE

The People's Republic of Gaia Rodina has begun a 20 year overhaul of its already large Polyarny Shipyards. It has enlisted the help of the Feazanthian survivors (who agreed in order to take revenge on their hated enemy, the Empire of Doujin) and the financial aid of the Empire of Kikoskriat. The overhaul is supposed to increase the maximum weight of the dry dock so that the Feazanthia-class Super Dreadnought can be constructed. Designs on the said dreadnought have nearly been completed, and supplies for the construction of its massive hull are being flown to the shipyards even now.

The People's Republic have enlisted the help of the First and Third Feazanthian fleets, to be manned by Rodinan seamen as their Feazanthian crew falls victim to radiation poisoning. They are being admitted to Rodinan hospitals and are expected to make at least a partial recovery. It is likely they will never sail again.

Gaia Rodina has deployed five of its seven Alfa submarines to the area where the nuclear missiles were launched, and they are currently attempting to acquire the dastardly submarines that killed so many innocents.

OOC: Feaz, be realistic. You don't have any added population from Feazanthia, seeing as you agreed yourself that there were no survivors from Feazanthia. With that, the overhaul itself would take 20 RL days, since you said 20 (NS?) year. Following that, construction of your vessel will take another 20-30 days.. so..

OOC-I am being realistic. Remember, there were still two fleets of military vessels that made it out. There were engineers on there.

And yes, I'm well aware of how long it'll take.

OOC: Two fleets that have to be manned by people who know how to do that. With that, you would have to take people out of Gaia's own military to man those vessels, and at your state in your economy - you couldn't provide for the yearly upkeep for two fleets.

The nation of Kikoskriat wishes to inform Gaia Rodina that it has already provided over 150 billion Ultimacs towards the project when the first shipyard was being built. As such, we feel that we have no more need to insert any more money, as doing so would be a danger to the stability of our economy and could result in hard times for our military.
