1 - How many Attans to one $
2 - What program did you use to draw those 8)

1 - How many Attans to one $

A. 1 Aequatian Attan = 1.37 United States Dollars.

2 - What program did you use to draw those 8)

A. Paint and IrfanView were used to create those.

OOC: Hmmm.....Irfanview.....sounds good...thanks

IC: The Government of Falastur would like to purchase 10 Super Carrier Strike Groups and 10 Heavy Battle Groups for full integration into the Falasturian Navy, and to put into use effectively almost immediately.

The Titan Carriers do not include the aircraft, the layout displayed is what the Aequatian Navy uses in combat, the ship may be fitted as your armed forces see fit.

The ships will be delivered to Falasturian ports within 2-4 weeks (1-2 Days RL) and training personnel from the Aequatian Naval Academy will arrive to train Falasturian personnel in the operation and maintainance of the vessels.

We thank you for your business and hope to have further deals with your nation, both through business and diplomatic functions.

The Government of Falastur understand this, and has advised its Chiefs of Staff to earmark craft for purchasing, with which to outfit their new carriers. We thank you for your service, and look forward to completing training so that we may put these ships into full active service. Until we talk again, we say thank you and goodbye.

~~Money is wired~~

Bump for exposure.

The People's Republic of Muraliland would like to purchase 10 Devastation class ships for the Chairman's Republican Muraliland Navy.

The People's Republic of Muraliland would like to purchase 10 Devastation class ships for the Chairman's Republican Muraliland Navy.

Our apologies, but we do not believe that your nation can afford to purchase the vessels requested. Perhaps something of a smaller nature, such as the Guardian Class Guided-Missile Destroyer and the Chimera Class Frigate would better suit your nation's Naval force's needs.

Bump.

The Commonwealth of McQuaide, as part of our growing and positive relationship with the Aequatian Republic, proposes a procurement of a Chimera-class FFG for sea trials and training purposes. We will provide in return 1.85 Billion USD wired to an account of your choice.

In addition, we will offer 75 Million USD for a Aequatian crew of 15 officers and 20 enlisted personel to travel to McQuaide for a period of 60 days to train a Naval Academy cadre on proper instruction techniques. This cadre will in turn begin training the actual crew of the FFG, and all additional naval crews.

We hope that this will be the beginning of a positive relationship.

Bump.

We would like to purchase 10 Titan-Class Fleet Carriers and 10 Shark Class Attack subs for 119 billion Allanean Dollars, confirm.
