Weyr remodels its navy, again | Looking for naval storefronts

After a short and bloody scandal in the expanded Naval Guard, which ended with roughly 75% of the Weyrean Naval Guard officers doing hard labor for massive fraud and embezzlement, Weyr once again is trying to bring its Navy up to modern standards.

The comment from Weyr’s High king Alicia was that “they [Weyr Shipyards] have shown an amazing capacity for both incompetence and fraud. They’ve managed to supply us with ships that broke down before they were even delivered…”

After forcing the Weyr Shipyards Inc to pay US$60billion in fines and damages, the new Naval Guard is now looking for various non-Weyr-based corporations and nations who will be able to supply Weyr with littoral combat ships.

Price ceiling: US$50billion
Looking for: Corvettes, patrol boats, ASW vessels, mine warfare vessels, coast guard vessels.
Considering: frigates, cruisers, destroyers.
_Not_ looking for: battleships, carriers, dreadnaughts, ballistic submarines.

[[OOC: failing this, I'll just go and ask Doujin if he's willing to supply me with 60 corvettes]]

The United Empire of Colerica, on behalf of the Colerica Arms Syndicate, offers you this link (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=342454) to the CAS' naval storefront. While new, the storefront continues to grow. We know you're not interested in carriers, battleships, or assualt ships. However, could we possibly interest you in a Mark V Special Operations swiftboat?

Go under Navy or Amphibious/Specialty, it should have some things you need, such as Carriers, submarines, Patrol Ships, and Amphibious Command, along with a few missles if needed.

Just go ahead and place any and all orders in their right spots, just be a guest with your nation's name for the name.

Go here (s6.invisionfree.com/International_Mall). And preferably buy at the Five Civilized Nations Naval Storefront, but shop around.

In a large conference room on the top floor of the rusting metal structure that is the Naval Guard central branch. The sound of jackhammers and welding equipment can be heard from outside the cracked glass windows.

"So we have a choice between Five Civilized Nations, Doujin, and Praetonia."

"Yes, admiral."

"Doujin has an excellent reputation, and low prices. Praetonia has slightly more weapons but is roughly 33% more expensive. Five Civilized Nations . . . "

"And you're afraid of getting a lemon again."

"Er, yes, ser."

"What about the rest?"

"Not enough information, or just not what we are looking for."

"So we are agreed on the preliminaries?"

"Yes, admiral.

"Then send out the orders."
