Thundercorp the Padmasan storefront that sells just about everything is preparing to re-open and has several offers for developing nations.

Any futuretech nation may become a partner or host, near-future nations may become hosts but not partners.


A host is a nation willing to allow Thundercorp to set up shops within it's boarders. Thundercorp sells many things including camping gear, which it sells to civilians and not to just nations. A host nation will recieve $30,000 dollars upon signing the agreement, and $1,000 per month. If the host nation wishes to make a purchase from thundercorp he will recieve a 1% discount and a monumental discount on shipping fees.

A partner is any nation willing to link on its storefront to Thundercorp. Naturally Thundercorp will return the favor. Partners will recieve a 5% discount on any purchases from Thundercorp.

Upon applying for Partnership please provide a link to your storefront.

Members of Metus or TCO who apply should note that they will not recive any discount as they already recive a substantial discount.

The Vanuu empire shall welcome the storefront inside its borders a long as;

1. its products are all legal by UN standards
2. its store is the vanuu empire all obey the national laws
3. that any armaments opn sale are to vanuu and un standards (the are only small or medium firearms, no heavy wepondry will be available for civilian purchase)

so we shall be glad to host one of your stores in the vanuuvian empire.

Thundercorp will review UN standards on the matter and shall reply soon. However his breaches standard Thundercorp policy of selling just about anything :twisted: (Out and out poisons, and some weapons excluded) and letting the locals take care of what should be bought and what shouldn't. But what's a breech of policy for the new customers generated? :)


EDIT: Thundercorp finds these terms acceptable. However before handing over the cash and the papers to be signed we ask the Vanuuvian empire what its pecific policies on drugs are.

The vanuuvian empires policy on drugs are that class A drugs are illeagle and possetion will result in a 2 year inprsionment. class B drugs are availible on perscription. and class C drugs are leagle to over 18's

Very good, the papers will be brought by courier, as soon as she returns the money will be wired.

At this point Thundercorp will only be setting up in your capital city, however as your nation grows Thundercorp reserves the right to open a store in your largest port or other center of commerce.

The republic is a Gundamtech nation, and is interested in a partnership. Can we work the details out?

Of course, of course. Thundercorp is always looking for partners and would be happy to enter negotiations. However Thundercorp requests to see your Catalog (A.K.A. storefront.) before we enter into official negotiations.

The papers are signed and we have a shop built for you in the vanuu town center in the capital.

we also have a number of warehouses up for rent, at 1000 VD per month we can rent you one for distrabutional purposes if you desire.

There is no need, Thundercorp is more than capable of maintaining a small storefront without large warehouses. We will contact you if business changes and the need arises. We forsee a long and profitable future.

OOC: What is your tech level by the by? I know you're at least near-future but I need to know.

we are moder - near future we are mainly moder though

we are moder - near future we are mainly moder though

OOC: Cool, cool. Of course that eliminates my options of using dropships for fast supply and for the guy behind the counter to be wearing a suit of powered armour but still good. Let me know if you ever take the plunge and become a futuretech nation.

the war monkeys would love you to set up stores within my natinal boundries, but don't be slack with the money

Is your nation also unloading weapons-grade plutonium? :twisted:

I've gotta say i feel like taking the plunge. would you recoment futuretech?

By the way is it ok in ns standards if i have a floating city like cloud city? and then you can have your storfront there? if so i'm going to start getting stats.

I've now decided to go future tech, in the description of Vanuu i have included you as beeing a major influence in the city (as Thundercorp) and would you ming if i added Vanuu was protected by a small group of Thundercorp ships?

OOC: Now this is something I enjoy... As you are now futuretech I can not only offer you some things but as you are a host you will be one of the few allowed to visit Thundercorp for first choice among our current stock of equipment for sale... we keep a rather large stock of items but once that's gone it takes a while to build replacements and to fill orders.

IC: A floating city is certainly possible, aye you could build one. It would require extensive ammounts of Gravity Induction Tech, the same thing that powers Padmasan dropships, grav-cars, ect. Of course most of my Grav-cars and gravtanks only go about 5 meters above the ground... So yes do-able. If you wish to subcontract the job of building a floating city to Thundercorp we can have at least 20 city-blocks up in the air within two years. (Two RL days) That time includes R&D, tests, and build time. After that we can build 20 block chunks that can be clicked onto the original. All we ask for this is sales rights for the idea. On a guess I'd say the max height the city could achieve would be about a kilometer above ground.

Nextly, Thundercorp is always willing to protect its assets, Dropships carrying troops can easily be brought in to see to defense. Along with a turret network built along the perimeter, should you desire such. You will of course have to purchase the turrets, and we will gladly sell you dropships, weapons, armour, and we can send trainers for a slight fee if you wish your own men to do the job rather than foreign soldiers.

Is there anything else you require?
