FAQ
Q:So what is this?
A:It's a place where you can buy spacecraft and space technology.
Q:So it's a storefront? Can I just say-"I'd like 300 Hecate class Destroyers *Money wired*"?
A:Abseloutely not.
Q:Why not?
A:Because there's no RPing. This game is about RPing.
Q:Alright then, how do I order?
A:Well, you sorta have to do something like this, note that this should be written out.
The ____ of ____ would like to purchase *number* *products*. *Now you describe your reason for procurement in detail, and how they will be used*.*Now describe how you want them delivered*.
*Now you end it with some kind of signature of a Department, person, whatever*
Q:Uhh... Okay. So once I buy these, I can sell them to other people right? And give them away?
A:Nope. If you ever try to redistribute these products without permission from me, I will come down on you faster than rabid squirrels on a bag of peanuts.
Q:Will you perform background checks to see whether I'm a godmodder, flamer, spammer, warmonger, idiot, and then deny my order if I am one of those?
A:Yes.
Q:Oh, right, and what is the tech level for all of these?
A: Distant future. Think many giant uberships with laser guns and FTL

Arcadia class Stellar Installation

Early Klonor space stations were constructed much smaller, and were mostly used for zero-G research purposes. Later on, with advancements in space construction technologies, stations got considerably larger. When the first Arcadia-class station was commissioned, the Klonor Empire decided to redesignate it an Installation. Used for a variety of purposes, most major systems are home to at least one Installation. They typically serve as the center of trade and communications for the surrounding star system. Home to scores of smaller ships, including repair vessels, freighters, fighters, and transports, an Arcadia class Installation is always a safe haven for a convoy of attack ships returning from battle. Where the Orion is the symbol of Klonor power, the Arcadia is the shining beacon of stability.
Crew: 10,000
Passenger Capacity: 15,000
Housing Facilities: 27 Four-Star Hotels
Repair/Refueling Capacity: Freighters to Mid-Sized Capital Ships
Armament: 20 Beam Cannons (B-5), 250 Mk I Laser Turrets, 75 Flak Guns
Fighter Capacity: 300
Price: 100 trillion

Fighter/Bomber Carrier

The Carrier, designed purely as a means of transporting and deploying smaller ships, has been vital to Klonor war efforts. Capable of holding 300 fighters it can provide enormous support for any offensive, defensive, or consolidating action. Being primarily a Carrier it is unequipped with other means of offense, thus no Beams or Laser Turrets, yet it is covered from bow to stern in the most advanced anti-fighter defenses that we have. Twenty Flak Guns and 10 Anti-Fighter Beam Cannons (D-14)across the 2.4 kilometer length makes this ships nearly impervious to fighter assault. The 300 fighter docking bay is also equipped with the facilities to repair, rearm, and even build fighter ships; the 12,000 man crew more than capable of performing all three tasks. With newer and better improvements in the field of fighter technology we see the importance of a top-notch carrier. Thankfully, we've found one.
Fighter Capacity: 300
Price: 40 trillion

Odin class Anti-Fighter/Command Ship

Designed as the latest in high tech anti-fighter defense and fleet control, the Odin has enough firepower to thwart any except the largest fighter assaults. Armed with 8 GTW-7 Banshee's, 32 GTW-15 Avenger's, 48 GTW-41 Disruptor Cannon's, and 72 GTM-4 Hornet Missile Launchers this ship can combat both fighter threats and, if in necessary circumstances, most small to medium sized capital ships. Equipped with a full range of communication systems and battle analysis computers, this 500 meter in diameter saucer can be used as a complete command center for almost any fleet action. When fully crewed with 2,300, this vessel is excllent for the defense and control of a contested stellar system.
Price: 40 trillion

Hecate class Destroyer

The new Hecate class of destroyers is quickly becoming the flagship of Klonor battle groups. Though less heavily armed than the Orion, at 2.3 kilometers in length the Hecate carries over 150 combat spacecraft and a crew of nearly 11,000. The ASD Aquitaine is a superb example of this new ship class, serving as the flagship of the 3rd Fleet, based in the Regulus system. Armed with 1 Beam Cannon (B-11), 4 Light Beam Cannons (B-4), 16 Mk I Laser Turrets, and 10 Flak Guns, it is extremely better defended against fighter attacks and can remain in the fight much longer than the older Destroyer.
Fighter Capacity: 160
Price: 65 trillion

http://67.18.37.17/595/43/upload/p746407.jpg


Orion class Destroyer

The mother of all Klonor ships. Measuring a frightening 2.1 kilometers in length, these ships are our main battle cruisers, sent to quell disturbances with startling ease. Armed with 3 Beam Cannons (B-9), 3 Light Beam Cannons (B-4), 11 Mk I Laser Turrets, and 3 Flak Guns, crewed by over 10,000 individuals, these ships can handle almost anything thrown at it and possess the firepower to terrorize any Capital Ships which come within range. Knowing an Orion is passing through one’s home system makes the civilians feel safe, but a prolonged tour is an ominous sign. Where these ships wander, war is certain to follow.

Mercury class Corvette

The Mercury is the latest in a Klonor attempt to construct a ship with formidable firepower as well as the ability to respond instantly to important situations. With 10 Mk I Laser Turrets and 10 Anti-fighter Beam Cannons (D-14) across its 129 meter length, it has the ability to duke it out with larger Destroyers and Cruisers, as well as being amply defended against massed fighter attacks. Due to it's compact size it is extremely maneuverable and capable of faster acceleration than any other Corvette in the fleet. With its minimal crew of 614 it has taken over as the fast reponse units and is slowly replacing the Deimos and Dreadnought class Corvettes on the front lines.
Price: 15 trillion

NSO-929 Dreadnaught class Corvette

The NSO-929 is now the most successful medium-sized military vessel in active service. Despite the age of the design, and competition from both larger and faster ships, the modest operating cost and high reliability of the '929 mean that there are now some 194 of these 162 meter vessels in active service. Armed with two Particle Beam Cannons (B-2), mounted on the port and starboard weapons pylons, and two missle magazines, again on the port and starboard pylons, it can handle almost anything thrown at it. Defended by two standard Displacement shields it has the ability to take a beating, then blow the hell out of you. Currently utilizing discontinued automated circutry, the Dreadnaught is crewed by a crew of 45 (with the ability of carrying up to 4 more), meaning it can bring Cruiser class power to bear upon enemies with minimal cost or risk. As an added bonus the bridge is capable of detatchment and independant flight, as well as the ability to dock with different Dreadnaughts and control them.
Price: 10 trillion

Deimos class Cruiser

Deimos-class Cruisers are the newest addition to the Klonor fleet. These sleek, ultra-modern warships are the products of a new era of ship design, maximizing maneuverability and firepower. Their 809 meter long hulls are strengthened with collapsed-core molybdenum sheathing for better protection against beam fire, and their Jimathon-designed reactor core provides more energy per ton than any other Klonor ship class. Their weaponry includes 10 Mk I Laser Turrets, 4 Beam Cannons (B-4), 6 Flak Guns, and 2 Missile Towers. Manned by a crew of 3,800 and capable of immediate responce to emergencies, as older ships are slowly phased out these Cruisers will become the foundation of the Klonor fleet.
Price: 10 trillion

http://www.freespace2.com/images/ship_deimos/lgpic.jpg


Aeolus class Cruiser

The ASC Aeolus was the first cruiser class ever produced by the RNI shipyards orbiting Deneb II. Only two dozen of these cruisers were put into service in Klonor fleets, with production ending in 2365. Klonor Command assigns Aeolus-class ships primarily to guard slow-moving convoys against fighter and bomber wings, as these cruisers are severely out-gunned by most capital ships in service today and assignment to the 1,570 person crew used to be considered punishment for those who aspired to a prestigious command. Their 2 Mk I laser Turrets and 6 Flak Guns serve as marvelous deterrents to smaller craft, however, and the 330 meter Cruiser has, with recent breakthroughs in fighter technology, taken on a whole new importance in the fleet. Their two Beam Cannons (B-6), though not sufficient to do any significant damage to larger vessels, allow them to at least engage other Cruisers during combat.
Price: 15 trillion

http://67.18.37.17/595/43/upload/p746415.jpg


Fenris class Cruiser

Originally designed as a Strike Cruiser, this ship is both fast and maneuverable (for a capital ship). The mainstay of the Klonor fleet, it measures 260 meters from nose to tail and has a hull strong enough to withstand the most powerful enemy warheads. It was later decided that a second line of cruisers, designed for defense, would be produced with stronger weapons, though less speed. The standard Fenris Strike Sruiser is armed with 2 Beam Cannons (B-6), 10 Mk I Laser Turrets, 2 Flak Guns, and one Fusuion Mortar. The Fenris Cruiser is crewed by 1,200 members of the KSC. Both versions are currently in production and active use, but they are slowly being phased out for the Deimos and Mercury corvettes.
Fighter Capacity: 4
Price: 15 trillion

http://www.volition-inc.com/fs/images/spacecraft/gtc-fenrislg.jpg


Leviathan class Heavy Cruiser

Based on the same design as the Fenris, the Leviathan plays a much different role. Designed as more of a Heavy Cruiser, the Leviathan has much stronger weapons, hull, and countermeasures. Sacrificing much in the way of speed, it is mainly used in defense and major battle areas, where it is not needed to dart in and out in minutes. 100 meters longer than the Fenris, it sports two Beam Cannons (B-4), one Heavy Beam Cannon (B-14), 13 Mk I Laser Turrets, 4 Flak Guns, and one Fusion Mortar. Crewed by 1,700, this ship is the workhorse of the Klonor fleet.
Fighter Capacity: 10
Price: 20 trillion

http://www.volition-inc.com/fs/images/spacecraft/gtc-fenrislg.jpg


Prometheus class Interception Cruiser

Though smaller in size than the aging Fenris class Cruisers, the new Prometheus class is actually a vessel comparable in ability to the larger Leviathan class of Heavy Cruisers. 257 meters in length and crewed by over 1,220 servicemen, the Prometheus does not posses even a single standard Beam Cannon. However, the lack of the normal Capital Ship weaponry enables the Cruiser to carry firepower normally incompatible with its size. It is armed with 10 Mk II Laser Turrets and, designed for offense against vastly larger and more powerful ships, one Heavy Beam Cannon (A-2). The combination of weaponry allows it to both defend itself from fighter sized craft and attack ships in the Destroyer or Battleship class. Expected to replace the older Leviathans in the near future, there are plans for a supplementary ship to be deployed with the Prometheus in order to provide it with the abililty to duel multiple ships at once, a capability that the Leviathans currently posses.
Fighter Capacity: 8
Price: 20 trillion

http://www.stargate-pictures2.de/120-Prometheus-24.jpg


Daedalus class Escort Cruiser

The new Prometheus class Interception Cruiser, the smallest Cruiser class in service by the Corps, was designed as a replacement for the aging Leviathan class Heavy Cruisers. However, though it holds the same offensive firepower as the Leviathan, it is not suited for dueling with numerous capital ships at the same time. The new Daedalus class, developed in conjunction with the Prometheus, will be deployed alongside the smaller Cruiser and serve to protect it from Cruiser and Corvette assaults while it launches attacks on the larger Destroyer and Battleship classes. The Daedalus, 335 meters in length and crewed by nearly 1,600 servicemen, is armed with 13 Mk II Laser Turrets for fighter and Corvette deterrent and two standard Beam Cannons (B-6) for Cruiser combat. In addition to escorting the Prometheus, the Daedalus is expected to replace the older Fenris class Cruiser in the near future.

Poseidon Military Freighter

The Poseidon was designed for military purposes, and is easily the strongest freighter craft in the fleet. Its fast speed and good maneuvering are offset by its weak hull. It does have enough turrets to defend itself if attacked, but not for long. It's best to let this freighter help you out with it's 4 Laser Cannons while you take the hits on your own shield, rather than risking the destruction of this ship.
Price: 5 trillion

http://www.volition-inc.com/fs/images/spacecraft/gtfr-poseidonlg.jpg


Triton Military Freighter

The ASFr Triton hauls almost twice the tonnage of the Poseidon-class freighters that have served Klonor since the Great War. The ability to distribute supplies and munitions is a strategic imperative in any theater of operations. With the Triton, battle groups can keep their forces well-equipped and well-armed, even if warships are dispersed over multiple systems. The Triton not only has the ability to dock with and haul TAC units, but it also has an internal cargo bay for ship-to-ship transfers. The Klonor Empire expects the Triton to reduce its reliance on deep-space depots, which are vulnerable to attack, piracy, and sabotage. It's sole Flak Gun and Laser Turret do not provide it with much offensive power, but any valuable convoy will have an escort of combat-ready fighters.
Price: 9 trillion

http://67.18.37.17/595/43/upload/p746424.jpg


Chronos class Freighter

The massive Chronos was not designed for military use. A civilian design, it's slow, barely maneuverable, and can barely defend itself with it's single two-cannon turret. It is, however, one of the only Klonor freighters capable of transporting the largest TAC-class cargo containers. It's far weaker in all respects than the smaller military-design Poseidon freighter, but its relatively strong hull and cargo capacity have turned this into a popular supply convoy craft on the front lines.
Price: 3 trillion

http://www.volition-inc.com/fs/images/spacecraft/gtfr-chronoslg.jpg


Zephyrus class Gas Miner

When a fighter pilot sees a ship of the Zephyrus class, one thought flashes through his or her mind: "Thank God I don't have to fly that tub!" The Zephyrus is a gas-mining ship, designed to harvest the hydrogen-rich gases of interstellar nebulae. It's the largest non-combatant ship in the Association fleet. The Zephyrus's thin armor, weak weaponry, and poor maneuverability give it a very low survival rate in combat, so these ships stay well back from the front lines. Despite these weaknesses, the Zephyrus plays a critical role in the operation of the Association fleet. The hydrogen gathered by Zephyrus-class ships powers the fleet's MiniStar Engines. Without this fuel, offensive operations would cease. For this reason, foes often seek out these gas-mining behemoths.
Price: 6 trillion

http://www.freespace2.com/images/ship_zephyrus/lgpic.jpg


Elysium class Transport

Since the start of space colonization, the standard transport has been used by everyone, civilian and military. While it has undergone minor changes time and time again, it remains a simple design: A vehicle meant to transport personnel from one place to another. Even though Elysiums are armored, they can't take massive amounts of abuse. Excellent for troop dropships or for the personal transport of high level diplomats. An excellent overall ship.
Price: 50 billion

http://www.volition-inc.com/fs/images/spacecraft/gtt-elysiumlg.jpg


Hippocrates class Medical Frigate

Klonor scientists developed the ASM Hippocrates early in the post-war Reconstruction. The urgent need for mobile medical units that could respond to humanitarian crises across multiple systems prompted the Empire to commission a new class of hospital ship. With the outbreak of the NTF insurgency, Fleet Command has once again called the Hippocrates into active military service. Its on-board facilities provide state-of-the-art medical care to thousands of patients and help transport refugees out of contested systems into the safety of Allied-controlled regions. The unusual design of the Hippocrates enables its crew to isolate sections of the ship quickly in the event of quarantine or hull breach.
Price: 30 trillion

http://67.18.37.17/595/43/upload/p746425.jpg


Faustus class Research Vessel

The Faustus Science Vessel was, and still is, primarily a civilian craft. However, in the 14 years since the Great War war began, more and more of these have been commissioned by the Klonor Empire in order to pursue military research. Unfortunately, its obvious value, poor fighting capabilities, and lack of speed make it a prime target for enemy ships. As a result, you will rarely find many of these ships near the front lines of battle. Equipped with three fully stocked labs, experimentation chambers, and the latest in development technology the Faustus provides you with a very capable mobile research and development center.
Price: 35 trillion

http://www.volition-inc.com/fs/images/spacecraft/gtsc-faustuslg.jpg


Charybdis class Sensor Ship

Ships of the ASA Charybdis class have been packed with the latest tachyon-enabled AWACS equipment from GDI labs. Each Klonor battle group has a squadron of Charybdis-class ships assigned to it. These ships double the range of the group’s standard detection arrays. Charybdis ships are found at the center of a battle group, as their thin armor, weak offensive capability, and poor maneuverability make them easy victims for enemy bombers. They have proven indispensable, however, in forays into the nebula beyond the Knossos portal. Without the aid of AWACS, battle groups would be flying blind within the EM disturbances of the nebula. Charybdis-class ships are very vulnerable in this environment, as witnessed by the recent loss of the ASA Panopticon from the 3rd Battle Group.
Price: 30 trillion

http://67.18.37.17/595/43/upload/p746426.jpg


Hygeia class Support Ship

The ASS Hygeia is the fleet’s newest Klonor support ship. It is fast and maneuverable, a necessity when trying to dock with fighters in the heat of battle. Triton Dynamics designed the Hygeia class with huge cargo bays for munitions storage, plus the latest magnetic-stasis delivery system for quickly re-supplying combat craft with missiles and bombs. The Hygeia’s repair facilities are driven by neural-net AI, for ultra-fast system diagnostics and repair. The high number of warheads carried by the Hygeia makes it a dangerous ship to be near when it blows up.
Price: 250 billion

Volition class Pirate Ship

Designed by a somewhat inebriated ship designer at Triton Dynamics, the Volition is actually an excellent anti-fighter ship. Armed with 2 Laser Turrets and 20 Flak Guns across its 500 meter hull, it is the best defense against fighters and bombers currently in the fleet. Although it needs a massive capital ship escort and its 2,300 person crew would undoubtably rather be serving aboard a Destroyer or Battleship, it's ability to single handedly defend large convoys and stations against massive fighter attacks makes it well worth the cost.
Price: 25 trillion

Mjolnir Remote Beam Cannon

The Mjolnir Remote Beam Cannon is the most advanced sentry gun device known. Vastly tougher and deadlier than the earlier Watchdog, Cerberus, and Alastor models, the Mjolnir is a danger to any hostile fighter or bomber that comes within range. Its two light beam weapons and three missile banks enable it to take on multiple bogeys simultaneously. They are used to help protect the most vital front-line Klonor installations.
Price: 10 billion

http://67.18.37.17/595/43/upload/p746430.jpg


GTM-N1 Harbinger Bomb

A fusion bomb surrounded by 3 salted fission bombs; the propulsion unit is a half-size version of a regulation Klonor fighter thruster (Class II). Given the weight of the payloads, the missile is slow despite the power of the thruster; as the Harbinger is exceptionally large, Klonor fighters and bombers are limited to carrying 2 of these weapons at any given time. The resultant shock wave from this weapon is potentially deadly due to the size of the payloads (5000 Mt in total); use near allied installations or allied ship groupings is strongly discouraged by the associates of Klonor. Most effective when used in preemptive defensive strike against non-military installations.
Price: 5 billion

http://www.volition-inc.com/fs/images/weaponry/harbinger.jpg


National Missle Defense System

100 Modified Mjolnir Remote Beam Cannons

Total: 500 billion

Purchase of this package saves over 500 billion Florens from independent purcahse of 100 Mjolnor RBC's. These Mjolnirs RBC's are stationed in geo-synchronous orbit above the boundries of your nation, using specifically modified sensors to scan for incoming missiles (the nation in posession of the RBC's may enter precise missile-types they want scanned for) and, using modified Beam Cannons designed to work in atmosphere, eliminate the threat. An excellent defensive weapon for any Earth based future-tech nation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

All Klonor ships use Sub-Space (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=293139) for Faster than Light travel between stellar systems. While in Sub-Space, all ships are accelerated to speeds equaling 1 light-year per minute. For travel between systems without Jump-Node connectivity, they use an independant Gravity/Time distorter to reach speeds of 1 light-year per hour. All Klonor capital ships and freighters are equipped with Inter-System Sub-Space drives, however fighter sized craft are only equipped with Intra-System Sub-Space drives.

Two recent developments, the Ergometric Detection Unit (Ergometer) and the Mass Effect Analyser (Massometer), are currently being installed upon all Klonor vessels. The Massometer, detecting the gravitic effects caused by any sizeable object, is excellent for use in the detection of cloaked vessels. The Ergometer, which recognizes and analyzes the power generated by FTL drives, is useful for the determination of the relative location of an FTL capable cloaked ship. These shall be included in all sales of ships cruiser class and above, and can be added to ships of lower size by special request. Any already sold vessels can be refitted with the new technology for a small fee.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is our fleet, those charged with protecting our borders, our people, and our way of life. Barring any unforeseen events, we hope that it will continue to expand and improve to further insure our survival. If any more information is required, we'd be happy to supply it. If you wish to purchase anything (be warned, they wont come cheap), simply post or TG me, I'm sure we can work something out.

[OOC] Hey Klonor! Finally reopened! 'bout damn time. ;)

Order will be coming shortly.
Pwnica
02-09-2004, 16:39
Pwnica is very pleased that the Klonor Ship Store has reopened, as we have long neglected our space forces. To this end, we wish to place a large order. We can spend $10 trillion on the military per year, and most of it has gone unused as of late.

If possible, we wish to work out a payment plan.
[OOC: Even without a payment plan, we could afford it, as around 99% of the cash has gone into the bank for the last 50+ years]

Our order is as follows:

8xMegingjard class Heavy Fire Destroyer, total is $12 trillion.

We have received your ship order and.....well, to be honest, we're a bit stunned. That is a massive request. Several years will be required to construct all these vessels. Even more time will be required to train all the personell, and the cost of maintaining these vessels will be astronomical. Are you sure you wouldn't like something on a smaller scale?

If you are still interested, I would like to inform you that the time until final completion for these ships would be, approximately, 20 NS years. That time will undoubtedly fluctuate in accordance with other orders and internal shifts. The cost for these vessels will total 24,900 billion USD. Due to the severe size of the cost, we are willing to negotiate a lay-a-way plan for payment. We propose a yearly payment of 1,245 billion per year.

Is this satisfactory?

David Wil, this will suffice so long as the drives and powerplants can be adapted to our cruiser design. We currently have four Dyan Class (Xa,Xb,Xc and Xd respectively) Cruiser hulls built and ready for mounting of a powerplant and drive. The Xa and Xb have both been mounted with our own experimental anti-matter drives, Xc and Xd have been reserved for other technologies.

The hulls measure 2,521 feet in length and 944 feet in width and 121 feet thick at thickest portions. If you have a powerplant and drive that can fit these specifications then all we would require is a demonstration that these could be fitted and used sucessfully.

I await your reply.

To Whom It May Concern:

We, the Associated Systems of Klonor, have long had an interest in the 1 Trillion Dollar Battlegroup; the so-called "Anti-Klonor Combo Meal". If our historical records, and the Dukes liquor-soaked memory, are accurate it seems the Package Fleet was developed purely to counter a seemingly hostile Klonor under the rule of Supreme General Abel Salm. With the overthrow of Salm, before any hostile actions were undertaken, we expected the "Anti-Klonor Combo Meals" to go the way of the canine (FYI: Dogs are extinct in Klonor) yet they have stayed in existence for the centuries since. There very well might be something to the Combo Meal, and we would like to find out for ourself.

The Military Command, with the consent of the Royal Family and Executive Office, is hereby placing an order for Seven (That's right: Seven) Anti-Klonor Combo Meals. We request that, upon construction, they be delivered en masse to the Installation in the Ross128 system for internal shipment to Deneb. Payment for the vessels, either monetary credits or the equivelant in rare metals, shall be delivered upon specification of payment type and the deliverance of the requested goods.

Zephyrus class Gas Miner

When a fighter pilot sees a ship of the Zephyrus class, one thought flashes through his or her mind: "Thank God I don't have to fly that tub!" The Zephyrus is a gas-mining ship, designed to harvest the hydrogen-rich gases of interstellar nebulae. It's the largest non-combatant ship in the Association fleet. The Zephyrus's thin armor, weak weaponry, and poor maneuverability give it a very low survival rate in combat, so these ships stay well back from the front lines. Despite these weaknesses, the Zephyrus plays a critical role in the operation of the Association fleet. The hydrogen gathered by Zephyrus-class ships powers the fleet's MiniStar Engines. Without this fuel, offensive operations would cease. For this reason, foes often seek out these gas-mining behemoths.

The Rogue Nation of ManyPink Fluffy Bunnys has found itself outgrowing its tiny island nation at an alarming rate. We have spent the last NS year searching for alternatives, and have found it to be space. We were refered to your company as one posessing shipyards of unmatched size.

We request that you build us a fleet so that we can take to the stars. Our request is one of your NEW Fleet Packages. We request that, as we are not looking to defend an area of space just yet, that you subsititute part of our additional order of 3 Hippocrates class Medical Frigate, a Faustus class Research Vessel, a Chrybdis class Sensor Ship, 40 Hygeia Support Ships converted for supply transport, rather than munitions, a set of 10 Zephyrs Gas Miners, and finally 30 Chronos Freighters modified for use as Colony Ships, for the cost of the mjolnirs.

An overview of our requested order:
1 Megingjard
1 Hecate
3 Orions
4 Deimoses
10 Mercuries
5 Fenrises
4 Leviathans
2 Aeoluses
10 Dreadnoughts
2 Carriers
3 Hippocrates
10 Zephyrus
1 Faustus
1 Chrybdis
40 Hygeias
30 Chronoses

Payment Offered: 1.25 trillion

We realise the cost is many times our defense budget of 78bn, but we are also devoting some of our Public Transport and making a few Personal Donations to bring the total up to 100bn. We you will accept 500bn payment now, taken from our treasury of unused defense spending, followed a pay as you go system that will take advantage of our rapidly expanding economy. We also hope that Klonor, as an inter-galactic superpower, will allow us to view their maps of the frontier, so that we may move beyond the confines of this Earth and establish ourselves as members of the Galactic Community. We hope you will accept our order, and we will become business partners in the coming years.

We are more than pleased to welcome another blossoming nation to the stars, few know that Klonor itself began its life as a miniscule nation on Old Earth. We have reviewed your request and found your order and payment plan acceptable (I think I'll just overlook the extra Orion class Destroyer that you added onto your list ;) ).

We shall begin construction of the requested vessels upon confirmation of the first payment of 500 billion, you an expect delivery of the final ship before the final payment is made. However, before we begin, we would like you to consider an adjustment to your order. You requested 30 Chronos class Freighters for use as colony ships, but wouldn't you rather purchase actual colony ships instead?

The Klonor Colony Ship, which we ourselves used to transport our ancestors to the Stars, can hold up to 10,000 individuals in complete and total luxury. That number can be increased to 100,000 if they remain within cryo-sleep during the voyage. Also, it is fitted with ten weapon slots for armed defence should the need arise. The Chronos has merely one laser turret. As an added bonus, once the colonisation is complete it is rather easy to remove the livin quarters and convert the vessel to a small combat ship.

Would you be interested in substituting them for the Chronos's?

Recently, ManyPink Fluffy Bunnys has been removed from the clutches of the corporations. I am now the Ruler of the Nation, and we are still very interested in purchasing the ships. Substituting the colony ships would fit well into our plans. The scum Anton Keffing must have overlooked them in your price list. We predict we will have need for 500 of these ships by the time we are looking to head to the stars in the next decade. We will also be willing to remove the extra Orion from the order so that we may accomadate the colony ships. Will any additional payment be necessary for this modification?

Sincerely

OOC: Klonor, i have a question about the harbinger warhead/bomb. What is the difference? the Megingjard launches missiles with harbinger warheads, but a harbinger bomb can be carried by a small bomber, can you include stats about the difference in size/power of the two weapons. Thanks.

The Rogue Nation of ManyPink Fluffy Bunnys first wishes to extend its gratitude to the Associated Systems of Klonor for providing us with such an amazing fleet. We have established ourselves in a system that seems to be untouched by man. We now wish to purchase a national missile defense system. The cost of 500bn will be paid over the next 4 NS years, and we will pick up the MBCs ourselves at the appointed time. We look forward to continuing to do business with the Associated Systems of Klonor.

Sorry, but no. No pics of mine. Anyway, here are the stats:

Length: 4.3 km

3 Heavy Beam Cannons
5 Beam Cannons
39 Laser Turrets
2 Mssile Towers

Fighter Capacity: 127

And all standard armor and detection technologies. I hope you can find a good pic.

ManyPink Fluffy Bunnys, the difference isn't the bomb but rather the delivery. Harbinger Cannons shoot Harbinger Warheads. A Harbinger Cannon, a weapon pretty damn close to a Godmod, is a delivery system for the Harbinger Warheads. It can fire a Harbinger Warhead at .99999999999 light-speed. FYI, that is pretty damn fast. Also, it can launch a Warhead every 4 seconds. That is a pretty damn fast rate of fire when you consider the explosive force of even a single Harbinger. Unfortunately, the Harbinger Cannons are 10 km in diameter and can't move without a small fleet of tugs. The Cannons on the Megingjard have been compacted so they have a slower rate of fire (1 every 15 seconds) but the Warheads still move super fast.

For some months now, the Klonor Ship Store outposts in the Sol system have probably been detecting an approaching extrasolar body, a large asteroid of some type, spectroscopy would indicate an abundance of carbon on the surface. Other sensors would indicate unnatural amounts of thermal radiations, and life sensors that weren't based upon the detection of DeoxyriboNucleaicAcids would suggest large amounts of life within the core of this big rock. Gravitational sensors would detect a few anomalies, these anomalies supported by the observation that the rock was ever so slightly deccelerating as it came in system.

A relatively primitive analog radio transmission comes in, roughly aimed at the storefront. Only a radio signal, at first they produce only high frequency screechings, but this screeching quickly quiets, fading into the background as an obviously synthetic human voice speaks, in a monotone and utterly emotionless voice.

"We of Kalahstain have heard of your stores. We would like to make a purchase of your vessels for our defensive and reconaissance forces, if that is acceptable."

After a period of some inquiries as to specifications of the craft, the voice makes it's request for vessels.

"We would wish to purchase the following: ten Elysium Class Transports, one Chronos Class Freighter, two Hygeia Class Support Ships, ten Loki Reconaissance Fighters, thirty Ulysses Space Superiority Fighters, and five Boanerges Elite Bombers. This comes to a calculated total of $4,825,000,000 standard dollars. We wish to pay in an exchange, and will send one of our transports with crews for our purchases and 4,630,552,500 Kalahstain Merx in bills to an orbit of your choosing upon the completion of this order."

The Man almost coughed up his donut, and then proceeded to choke on it, he scooted back in his chair stuggling for his life, Comically with a donut! He soon passed out, luckily, and funnily may I add, the very thing that drove him to this incident, (his fat), saved him from it! His obtuse stomach hit the desk and out came a half digested donut chunk. He would live, but for now he would sleep.
The Computer screen was relativly unchanged it stated:
We are willing to pay lay-way and have allies that will aide us in this endevor. We would like an equaly proportioned mix of Heavy Beam Cannons and Anti-Fighter Beam Cannons we would also like added Flak Cannons and a group of missile tubes on the sides of the ship down the middle.

2) Replace the laser turrets with DLE disruptor turrets

3) Replace the Flak Cannons with Ion Cannons.

4) Leave off the Beam Cannons, as I will replace those later with Antimatter Cannons.

5) Change the engines to a mixture system, combining DLE warp and FTL Jump engines.

I've decided I need a capital ship to represent my government. That, and to have something big enough to intimidate people when it shows up to negotiate.
What caught my eye is the design of the Orion. However, I am wanting something using technology I have developed.
Basically, take the Orion design and alter it to use DLE armor (bitanium with energy-difusing crystals inlaid, with the crystals being a requirement in my region of space), DLE shields, DLE Disruptor Turrets instead of Laser Turrets, Ion Cannons instead of Flak Cannons, Antimatter Cannons instead of Beam Cannons (if you don't have any, leave those spots empty and I'll attach them later), and replace the engines with the combination of Warp and FTL Jump I am using.
Heh. Sounds like I'm basically stripping the ship of everything.
I can provide everything except the antimatter cannons, which will be completed soon. I can also provide my technicians, though the one who knows the systems best is currently the computer system of one of my orbital platforms. However, that shouldn't be a problem.

Eriopia has in the past purchased several custom Dropships your storefront made and we are extremely pleased with its performance and reliability. They orbit Eriopia's atmosphere daily doing flight procedures, drills etc. We have also constructed several orbital weapons systems utilizing biological and nuclear weapons. We are just beginning to add laser systems that can target any incoming forces. If possible we would like a "New" fleet package please. In the fleet package if you could add 5,000 of any of your good fighter inteceptors. Also 1,000 Hercules Mark II assault aircraft. Also to top it off we would like ONE National Missle Defense System. Eriopia in the past suffered many threats from nations threatening nuclear attack. We pray that never happens. Some of our Eriopian built defense fighters are already stationed on our basic missle stations in space but we would like a defense net to stop any nuclear or biological missles ever fired at Eriopia. Thank you in advance

The money will be wired upon confirmation of our order. Thank you again.

We are currently in the process of refitting an Orion class Destroyer to fit your specifications. With the cost of removing the current weapons, armor, and engines as well as constructing the specified weapons, armor, and engines the cost will, of course, increase.

Regarding your "general armament contracts", I have no objection to it but haven't done it in the past. At least, I don't think I have. The original Storefront is so long (120+ pages) that I can't go back and re-read all the orders that have been placed.

To all those who sail among the Stars, I bring good news and a message of joy. The Klonor Ship Store, renowned throughout the known Universe as the producer of the highest caliber of military and civilian vessels, has been re-opened by the current government of the Associated Systems of Klonor.

Once more our vast supply of Starships are at your disposal. You, the inhabitants of the Universe. For your own protection, exploration, and scientific advancement.

For your own safety and security, we bid you enter our shop. Our prices are extraordinary, but I assure you the products are worth every Floren. But you don't have to take my word for it, our creations speak for themselves.

Transmission Closed

OOC: I'm back, baby!

Well, at long last the Klonor Ship Store is once more open to the public. You'll notice several changes to the original Storefront, but I assure you they are all for the better.

For one, the J'Adorien class Destroyer is no longer for sale; being a non-Klonor ship in origin I was never very comfortable with selling it and, more practically, the different weaponry and technology often caused confusion.

The Deimos class Corvette is likewise absent, against my wishes but along with my logic. I had neither ship size, armament, nor crew size on record and merely describing it as "A good ship" really didn't tell the buyer enough they needed to know about how to use it in an RP. Such is vital information.

The Loki fighter is also missing, but that is a purely temporary adjustment. The picture link stopped working and I'm going to re-host one somewhere else rather soon.

Every single combat vessel now has size, armament, and crew size stated in its description; prior to this update many ships were missing one or more and left a user lacking facts they would need in any RP. I still avoid going into extreme detail regarding each and every ship, something I assure you I do on purpose, but there's enough for a person to at least know how many ships they can crew and how much damage they can dish out.

The most shocking change most people will notice is the alarming leap in price on each and every ship, vessels costing billions are now well into the trillions. I do this for realism, considering the size of each and every ship, and for effect, since these ships (Especially the larger ones) are not designed for purchase or use by any except the largest of nations. No, this is not a slight against even the youngest of nations or a belief that they are unworthy; I opened this store before I was even two weeks old. It just doesn't make any sense for a recently created nation to be able to afford a dozen Orion class Destroyers if they don't even have the population to crew them.

I hope that one day soon the ships of Klonor will once again see service in every corner of the Galaxy.

Twenty Mercury class Corvettes

Due to a crisis situation in Outer Heaven, these ships will be used to bolster our fleets. The Defence Systems will be placed to secure our most valuable planets.

However, due to the fact that Outer Heaven is in a state of lockdown, we ask that you deliver our order to the origin of this system, the Tau Sigma Outpost. Payment will be wired on confirmation, and we ask that when the ships are delivered, that you leave the system immediately. We ask this merely for the Universe's safety, for we will deliver these ships to our Empire via a hidden TaDERE gate in-system.

As far as more recent intelligence partakes, I find it extremely unlikely that any agents you have in our midst would be able to transmit any information to you, due to the lockdown our Nation has imposed.

However, I suggest you also look at our part in the Intergalactic Trade Hub:

We do not include the profits of the ITH in our recent spendings, and I can assure you that with the large influx of traffic we recieve from 100+ Nations daily, I can assure you that we can pay for this order.

However, if you are not entirely convinced still, I am sure that we can work out a payment plan of sorts.

After an estimate of your yearly budget in military matters, we propose an annual installment of 40 trillion Florens for a period of 57 years, with certain ships being delivered upon each payment as their production costs are covered. The delayed delivery is not solely resulting from the long-term payment, but rather from the extreme time that would be required to manufacture all ninety ships and the several thousand RBC's that would accompany them. Even our shipyards will be unable to produce such a large quanityt of vessels in anything approaching a timely manner.

*Decryption complete*

Mr Will,

For the moment, my superiors find the payment plan acceptable, and you'll find an equivalent of 40 Trillion Florens wired as you are reading this. However, until our partner can extrapolate some proper findings, my superiors feel it prudent to at least give you an idea of what the ITH gives Outer Heaven MK II:

All these 100+ Nations that are using the ITH are using it for everything to do with their trade. They rely on the ITH to export their goods and import them.

Now, considering the size of most Nations using the ITH, we can assume that at least 20,000 ships come through the ITH every day.

We charge every ship 100 USC/D (Universal Standard Credits/Dollars), which is split equally between us and our partner, so Outer Heaven recieves 50 USC/D.

20,000 x 50 = 1,000,000 USC/D

Now, considering this minimal amount comes through every day (And we measure years like Earth), we merely times this number by 365.25.

1,000,000 x 365.25 = 365,250,000 USC/D

Now, we merely multiply this number by the amount of members (120):

365,250,000 USC/D x 120 = 43,830,000,000

As you can see, we currently make (At least a minumum of) Fourty Three Billion, Eight Hundred and Thirty Million Universal Standard Credits/Dollars. This is, of course, excluding special escort fees many Nations take up with more valuable cargo, and ignoring the chance of growth.

Half of the ITH's profits goes into our Nation's budget, meanwhile, the other half is placed in a secure bank vault. Considering we haven't been in a state of war for decades, we haven't required the use of the other half. The ITH has been in operation for over 240 Years, meaning that as a rough figure, we currently have saved up:

365,250,000 x 120 = 5,259,600,000,000 USC/D

Outer Heaven is more than willing to pour this amount into the payment for the ships.

As promised, Outer Heaven will try and get some findings, but I'm sure you'll agree that even if these figures are rough, they prove that the ITH does present Outer Heaven a proper influx of wealth.

I look forward to your next response,

Yours Sincerely,

Admiral Lance Bernard,

The new Daedalus class Escort Cruiser is now available for purchase, supplementing the firepower of the Prometheus.

Daedalus class Escort Cruiser

The new Prometheus class Interception Cruiser, the smallest Cruiser class in service by the Corps, was designed as a replacement for the aging Leviathan class Heavy Cruisers. However, though it holds the same offensive firepower as the Leviathan, it is not suited for dueling with numerous capital ships at the same time. The new Daedalus class, developed in conjunction with the Prometheus, will be deployed alongside the smaller Cruiser and serve to protect it from Cruiser and Corvette assaults while it launches attacks on the larger Destroyer and Battleship classes. The Daedalus, 335 meters in length and crewed by nearly 1,600 servicemen, is armed with 13 Advanced Laser Turrets for fighter and Corvette deterrent and two standard Beam Cannons for Cruiser combat. In addition to escorting the Prometheus, the Daedalus is expected to replace the older Fenris class Cruiser in the near future.
Fighter Capacity: 16
Price: 25 trillion

To all customers of the Klonor Ship Store, past, present, and future, I bring unfortunate news. Due to recent internal matters, to sensitive to be publicly broadcast, several of the vessels previously available for purchase have been removed from the selection. The two Battleship classes and the Megingjard Heavy Fire Destroyer have been removed, and will not be re-added in the forseeable future. We apologize for any discomfort that this may bring to our embattles allies, but this must be done.

Please be aware that the remainder of our inventory is still available for purchase.

The Glorious Empire of Outer Heaven MK II would like to purchase two Orion class Destroyers. We wish to use these Destroyers in a set of weapons trials, which will help test the effectiveness of our new weapons. We would prefer crew the vessels in one of your space docks and then collect them if possible.

We will wire the appropriate costs (100 Trillion) upon confirmation of this order.
