Welcome to the Portaushi Military Storefront
The Republic of Portaushi has always prided itself in its willingness to support exploration on the fringe of modern science. Especially when such exploration is beneficial to the Republic's military and economic well-being. Thanks to some very recent developments in our military research facility deep in the heart of the <<CLASSIFIED>> Region, we have several new weapon designs available for sale. Because most of these are in their prototype or post-prototype phases, only specs will be given. Later, as we finish testing, visual data will also be included in the information packet.
WHY YOU SHOULD BUY FROM PORTAUSHI
Nationalized corporations in Portaushi are required to hire only skilled developers and workers referred by the Portaushi Department of Labor and Manual Resources, and all their handiwork must be approved by the Department of Military and Civilian Production before it can be sold on markets both inside and out of our little country. This ensures that each product has been built by qualified personnel and has undergone hundreds of hours of testing before it even enters the consumer market. Our weapons are reliable, affordable and, above all, effective.
Furthermore, return customers and large orders will receive discounts via rebate tokens which can be collected at the Portaushi Department of the Treasury and Gambling Comission.
Portaushi reserves all rights to the distribution of weapons technology. Resale is prohibited under penalty of immediate revocation of all client nation privaleges, including Rebate Tokens. Specifications for the production of the weapon are available. Contact your local distributor. Portaushi is not responsible for any death, dismemberment or terminal nuclear winter caused by the use or misuse of any of its commercial or military products. Several animals were harmed in the testing of these weapons. End Use Liscensing agreements apply
Available Infantry Systems
Portaushi has always emphasized the place of the infantryman on the battlefield.* Thanks to the hard work of our indentured weapons research scientists, we have been able to improve the effectiveness of the common foot soldier in almost every aspect. Let's take a look.
*The place of the infantryman is between the enemy and the more important vehicle brigades.
The LNC-300 "Lancer" 9mm Charged Automatic Rifle
Using a patented electromagnetic accelerator powered by a lithium battery, the LNC-300 creates a powerful, effective combat rifle with fewer moving parts. The LNC-300 is built from low-weight composite materials, making it perfect for extended missions and quite resiliant in the face of mishandling, accidental droppage and other forms of impact trauma. Its 9 millimeter parabellum ammunition lacks the stopping power of most common assault rifles, but its accuracy and relatively high ammunition capacity make it an effective and deadly infantry weapon. A fully ambidextrous safety makes it comfortable for most soldiers, and a two-stage trigger allows quick change between single shot and three round burst firing.
Ammunition: 9mm parabellum
Clip Size: 100
MSER*: 150 meters
Weight**: 7 lb.
Cost: 2,000
*Manufactuers Suggested Effective Range
** Fully Loaded
The LNC-3000 Heavy Charged Assault Rifle
Firing a much heavier 11mm round, the LNC-3000 provides the stopping power that its cousin, the LNC-300, lacks. Though a lower ammunition capacity and higher weight make it less effective in prolonged missions, the special 11 millimeter round provides good penetration and a slightly increased range. Like the LNC-300, the 3000 has an ambidextrous safety and a two-stage trigger. It also comes with a CIS [See Below] Jack built into the sight, making it a perfect companion to the armored infantry trooper.
Ammunition: 11 millimeter (Armor-Piercing and Explosive rounds available)
Clip Size: 60
MSER: 200 meters
Weight: 10 lbs.
Cost: 2,500
EST-9000 Light Infantry Weapon
Having to deal with unarmored peasants during a police action? Riots breaking out due to your recent bout of anti-civil rights legislation? Watch too many horror movies as a small child before taking the helm of your nation? Well, the EST-9000 is the perfect weapon for you. Using advanced electromagnetic technology seen in many of Portaushi's products, the EST fires high-tension monomolecular carbo-fiber wire charged with a strong electromagnetic field. The result? A circular, blade-like projectile that can cut through most light armor and provide effective results as a short-range anti-infantry device. Ammunition sold separately.
Ammunition: High Tension Carbon-Filament Wire
Clip Size: 15
MSER: 75 meters
Weight: 9 lbs.
Cost: 4,000
HRSHM-A9138 Miniature Tactical Nuclear Device
When Dr. Alberto DeLance, a renowned "alternative physicist" came to Portaushi's weapons division, he brought with him the plans for a powerful implosive nuclear magnetic container device, which allowed us to build a two kiloton warhead into a package not much bigger than a grenade, despite all his whinging about how the device was meant to help STOP nuclear war. This devices are very low yield and produce minimal radioactive fallout. Used outdoors, tests show that radioactive aftereffects will last, at most, 24-48 hours. The device requires an external power source, usually contained in what Portaushi R&D has come to call as the "NUCOOLER," a rectangular storage unit which can hold up to eight HRSHM-A9138 devices. Once removed from the container, the MiniNukes have an effective lifespan of eight hours before they are rendered inert by special built in failsafes.
Weight (with NUCOOLER): 27 kilos
Cost (with NUCOOLER): 50,000
GH-11 "Crusader" Light Infantry Armor
Just as important to the successful waging of war as the ability to deal damage, is the ability of the infantryman to withstand the damage dealt and return home safely. That's where the Crusader armor system comes in. Built around a synthetic ceramic clamshell breastplate, with reinforced composite greeves and a kevlar under-tunic, the Crusader provides a great deal of protection without greatly limiting the movement of the normal infantryman. Further, the helmet has a built in radio communications suite, full-spectrum infrared and ultraviolet sensory gear and a Heads-Up Display for the referencing of maps and mission data. A face-mask (included) can be added to protect against most airborn biological and chemical contaminants and a geiger counter built into the wrist will keep the trooper safe from and quantum entanglements (get it?). The off-hand wrist can also be equipped with a short range plasma screen generator (extra) to give the trooper the edge in close-quarters combat. Comes equipped with a CIS, which can be connected via cable to any weapon equipped with a CIS Jack.
Cost (with PSG): 100,000
Cost (without PSG): 85,000
SCS9 Plasma Screen Generator
An innovative energy weapon developed recently in Portaushi's military research labs in <<CLASSIFIED>>istan, the Plasma Screen Generator creates a white-hot ball of plasma energy wrapped in a cool, protective magnetic shield. When the energy is released, the effects can be very, very devastating. Perfect for officer corps and armored troop support because of its small size and short range.
Weight: 1.5 lbs.
MSER: 30 meters
Cost: 15,000
Miscellaneous Systems
Miscellaneous Systems is Portaushi's biggest supplier of various important military items that really don't fit into any other category. Based in <<CLASSIFIED>>Land, the Miscellaneous Systems Corporate Offices are a mishmash of conflicting architectural styles, almost as though they were built as an afterthought to the core specializations which make it a great corporation. Below are some of Miscellaneous Systems' finest products.
Computer Interface System
The Computer Interface System is a key component many of Portaushi's military systems. Consisting of a small, dedicated computer and a connection cable, the CIS allows an infantryman or vehicle operator to create an interface between the Heads Up Display in his armor and the computer system that he is working with (be it a weapon or vehicle). This allows the following features.
Weapons: A virtual ammunition count, targetting highlights and mission objective highlights.
Vehicles; A virtual dashboard, allowing for greater control and manueverability thanks to reflex-to-action interpreters built into the vehicle jack.
Cost (Weapon Jack): 30,000
Cost (Vehicle Jack): 80,000
Cost (CIS Computer): 50,000
MS-209 Infantry Training Tapes
Perfect for countries with large conscript armies, the MS-209 series of training tapes is a core curriculum of subliminal hypnosis tapes which allows a new recruit to possess the skills of a seasoned boot camp graduate in less than half the time.*
*Please note, IT tapes do NOT confer actual combat training. Cease the use of tapes if subject shows signs of epileptic seizures, heart palpatations or impotence. Contact your local Surgeon General to see if IT tapes are right for you.
Basic Infantry Training tapes provide everything from proper weapons handling to customizable propaganda templates tailored by our trained psychologists from the Bureau of Mental Health and Waste Disposal in <<CLASSIFIED>>ia to produce an almost fanatical father-figure reaction in your soldiers. Other tapes include: Marksman training, Mess Duty, I Love Latrines, and Don't Ask, Don't Tell: The Hiding Game. Complex activies such as medical training and demolitions are available on a case by case basis. Buy these today and by tomorrow, you'll have a loyal army of cagey veterans ready to die at your whim.
Cost: 400 per tape.
