Designwerks, in another effort to better serve the needs of the international civilian manufacturing, technology, and scientific communities, have opened their company to international suggestions once again. The State Industries of Schultaria Prime wish to hear your thoughts on the future direction of this company and the products it offers to all nations large and small.

So please, if you have any suggestions for the following...

-Individual Products / Services
-New Technologies (Defense | Computer Tech | Increasingly Advanced Spatial Tech | etc.)
-Corporate Alliances (Mergers, Vendors, Strategic Product Placement...)
-Stock Options

Feel free to reply!

We look forward to hearing constructive suggestions from our international friends!

Please, do not be shy in your comments! As long as they are constructive and informative they can be nothing but helpful!

OOC: Well, this seemed to get buried rather fast. Whew!

We (the AMF government) would be interested in purchasing DesignWerks stock in mass quantity. How much is available for purchase?

Since Designwerks is a state owned corporation, the total percentage of stock that we would offer would probably be very low (approximately 10 to 20% of the company's total value). However, before we offer any sort of stock options for the time being we would like to have an independent third party nation assess the total value of Designwerks' assets; this way our nation can then affix the proper value per share and then we can offer stock sales on the open market.

We thank you for your interest in Designwerks and we hope to have a very successful business partnership in the future.

If anyone else has questions or comments, please feel free to post!

We like to display Designwerks as a company who responds to the needs of its consumers and has that "presonal edge" that you just don't seem to find in today's storefronts. So please, contact us today!

A BUMP for any and all replies.

OOC: Hmmm; no one else wants to reply?

We would be willing to improve with more and better technologies, but we need to know specifically what kinds of "advanced technologies" you are looking for. Even a rough explanation of what sectors you are looking to improve would be nice. (I.e. Transportation, Communications, Healthcare, etc...)

As for missiles, would these be offensive or defensive? If they are for offensive purposes then we would have to decline; it is Schultaria Prime's modus operandi not to sell any device whose purpose is to serve as an agent of destruction. And, being that Designwerks is owned by the government of Schultaria Prime, we follow this doctrine to the letter.

Gosselania's Aerospace industry is currently working on a fighter aircraft project and could definitely use some help with RAM (radar-absorbing materials) as well as an advanced airborne radar system and/or targeting systems.

We already have financial support from the nation of Stromblania.

We have a great deal of useful tech (http://www.freewebs.com/bluebomber/techcontracts.htm), including the most advanced portable radar in NS, near superconducting computers at low costs, and heat resistant coatings better than the current reentry tiles.

This friday or saturday, we'll be releasing a few new products and techs...well mebbe thursday if I'm impatient.........

OOC: Sileetris, as much as I respect the concept of free and open advertising, I would have hoped that you would have at least TG'ed him about your storefront instead of making a public statement. It makes me feel like my store, and my efforts, are substandard when someone attempts to advertise in a thread which is supposed to help me gauge the needs of the NS consumer community.

Also, is anyone still interested in the concepts of civilian (not direct, singular purpose, military) technology? I want to keep Designwerks' novelty as a nearly pure civilian storefront for the everyday needs of a nation, such as resource production, research, communications, and the like.

OOC: So I take it you aren't interested in any of those techs then? It was as much for him as it is for you.... the idea of posting my stuff is to see if you want any of it to incorporate into your own products......

OOC: Sorry about that, but it just seemed it looked like that your post was directed solely for the benefit of Gosselania. Given that you weren’t addressing either nation by name I assumed that you were replying to the previous post; also, the way the post was set up looked more like an advertisement than suggestions of technology.

A BUMP for increased international replies.

[OOC: How about a sensor array that can detect "stealth" ships, bombers, fighter, etc. The things have to have a tailpipe!

Perhaps an advanced material that can protect better than modern composites and/or steel for warships. Perhaps a missile that can cause damage to a Trimarian-hulled ship at a more reasonable price than using a tungsten rod system?]

We might consider developing a few new alloys in the near future, just remember that with Designwerks everything is thought of CIVILIAN first; the military applications are still available, but the actual military specifications will have to be developed by the nation who purchases the materials.

As for defensive military systems we have no problem in developing them for potential customers, however...

Perhaps a missile that can cause damage to a Trimarian-hulled ship at a more reasonable price than using a tungsten rod system?

To reiterate before:


...it is Schultaria Prime's modus operandi not to sell any device whose purpose is to serve as an agent of destruction. And, being that Designwerks is owned by the government of Schultaria Prime, we follow this doctrine to the letter.

OOC: To BUMP, as I have done before, shall not bear the ills of generations past for yeah, the thread arises!

The Sag Arms Corporation is interested in hearing more about Designwerks. They have always been interested in high-quality and unique products, as evidenced by their exceptional weapons production and prestige inside of Kaukolastan. Perhaps some cooperation is in order?

We support Prime's continued dedication to not selling any weapons, lethal or non, in anyway.

OOC: Sorry Schul, finals in the way of emailing you those specs and pics. Soon, I promise soon. In addition, I hereby declare this thread BUMPED to the utmost degree. On a scale of bump to BUMP of course.
