After it was destroyed by Holy Panooly, Aust, Preatonia, Moranthia and many others, I would like to buy a new navy. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Packages will do fine.

Thanks,

OOC: You dont have a country in modern tech, but whatever...

Can your new country be ruled by people who are slightly less psycotic, then maybe we can ally again.

Preatonia: I am, after having a lecture from Vexia, to not be a warmongering nation. My war with Sephrioth came about when, out of the blue, he attacked me. If that is good enough for you then yes, we can be allys. Yeah, but I'm planning of making an Earth base again. So I will need a navy to protect it.

Easy green: Modern tech.

The Tokarev Naval Store (run by the nation Tokarev, who cannot post in the forums due to technical issues, but he is a 1.5 billion sized nation with a Frightening economy in case you were wondering) is still under construction, but offers 37 classes of Aircraft Carrier, 12 classes of Battleship/Battlecruiser, 30 classes of Cruiser, 50 classes of Destroyer, and 25 classes of Frigates at good prices.

*jaw drops* How do you get them to be in any way different?
Cam III
08-08-2004, 17:06
Why not superdreds?
Turkmeny

About twenty different editions of "Jane's Fighting Ships." :P

Admittedly, many of them are similar, almost the same, but they are different enough to warrant being designated as different classes, with a few exceptions, which were mainly just me fluffing up the storefront by making a new class of an upgrade of the previous class.

Why not superdreds?
Too powerful. Maybe when I trust you more.
Turkmeny

Cam: The site is underconstruction, Superdreads are not up for sale yet. Because you are rebuilding your navy, Tokarev is prepared to offer a 25% discount on your first purchases.
Easy green

Do you have a list of needed ships yet?
Cam III
08-08-2004, 17:12
Dreds or super dreds would be nice.
Easy green

y would you want them they have no place in a modern navy?
Turkmeny

I will sell you some Dreadnoughts (under the Cruisers section at my Storefront, marked Armored Cruisers) but Superdreadnoughts are out of the question, given your history.
Cam III
08-08-2004, 17:21
What do you know about my history?
Heres a summery:
At first I was a modern tech democracy
Then I became a dictatorship.
Then I became a warmonger
Now I am a normal dictatorship.
In the future: I will stay the same as I am now.
Turkmeny
08-08-2004, 17:23
I will not sell you SuperDreadnoughts for two reasons.

1) There is still doubt whether you will warmonger or not
2) I need a couple of weeks to get around to adding SuperDreads to the Storefront. If you still want SuperDreads, come back to my storefront in two weeks time and I will do business with you, provided you haven't started warmongering.

I bet you use harpoons. Superdreads are invulnerale to harpoons.
Easy green
08-08-2004, 17:39
how?
Praetonia
08-08-2004, 17:42
A harpoon has an armour penetration rating of between 1.5" and 3". The super dreadnaught I use has a minimum of 41" of armour anywhere on the hull. Go figure.
Praetonia
08-08-2004, 17:43
Note that that is 1.5" - 3" of steel. The SD I use utilises titanium composites, enchanced ERA, ballistic ceramics, blast channels, to name but a few.

what bout a hit from a harpoon to the upper deck. you cant put that sorta armour on the top of a ship
Praetonia
08-08-2004, 17:48
1) Yes you can, all battleships have deck armour. Do you know anything about battleships?

2) Harpoons can't do top attacks.

3) Even if it penetrated (which it wouldnt) the damage would be insignificant compared to the size of the ship.

CIWS systems? Ever heard of Kashtan or AO-18?

Cam III: Provided you can meet the sales criteria to my satisfaction, you are welcome to any of our ships.

Because all of your 'storefronts' are the same with just one or two words changed.

Cam III: Tokarev has hurredly put three types of SuperDreadnoughts on the Storefront. You have been given permission to purchase some, if you have the money.

Tokarev says he wrote them up rather quickly, so there may be some slight errors in the figures in the stat line, and he will T-Gram you if there are any.

OOC: Uh, Cam, I never gave you no lecture about Warmongering. It was Vaevnt or whatever his name was who did. Go back and check the thread again. The spelling is similliar, i'll grant you that, but we're completely seperate nations. He's not even a puppet of mine. :O

Vexia would gladly offer its surplus ships for a minimal fee to Cam III.
We don't do Storefronts, but we offer:
2 Invinicble-class Carriers
3 AEGIS Cruisers
10 Type-42 Destroyers
5 Burke-class Frigates
4 Typhoon Submarines(soon to be decomissioned, but we'll spare them their baltic graves for you if you want)

These are all surplus or soon to be decomissioned ships.
How can you have surplus ships i hear you cry?
When your godamn naval budget gets slashed, that's how.

[You guys know, all of these ships you are selling are inevitably going to be blown to pieces when Cam relapses into warmongering...]
Turkmeny
08-08-2004, 19:57
Meh ... I can afford to lose a few ships. Well, I can't, because I'm not selling the ships. This account is just a puppet for Tokarev, who is 1.5 billion strong and has a Frightening economy. For some reason I can't log on to the NS forums as Tokarev, I am using Turkmeny.
Praetonia
08-08-2004, 20:08
OOC: I think I know what your problem is. Go on the Tokarev account and go to settings. Turn auto-login to on and press update settings (even if it's already set to 'on'. Then click on the forum link, then go to the index page and scroll down to the bottom. Click log off. If another box comes up click yes. You should then be logged in as Tokarev.

Thanks, I'll try that out.


EDIT: No, it just gave me the message "Something went wrong when trying to log you onto the forums but we are not sure what." I looked at the Known Problems page and I saw that the admins are aware of it, it is apparently becaue I tried to manually create an account called Tokarev before the jolt forums were working properly and that has screwed stuff up. Just need to wait for the admins to fix it.
