Following detailed, protracted and friendly discussions with the Governments of Colodia, Morathania, Praetonia, Greenmanbry, Hogsweat, Dublin Commune, IDF and Voderlund, we have been able to obtain the rights to lease a number of areas for use in building of Naval facilities. The following common conditions apply to all:

* The bases will consist of 20 piers, of which 4 will be covered submarine pens capable of accommodating two submarines of up to Oscar-III size, and four will be long, deep-water moorings able to cater for Battleships, Battlecruisers and Fleet Carriers.

* Each base will have the following: Fuel storage, ammunition storage, food storage, water storage and desalinisation systems, repair facilities, a small airfield, guard towers, mobile AA systems, and a battaltion of machanised infantrymen (320 men and 40 BMP-3Ms).

* The bases will effectively be our own, and any actions we undertake from them that do not affect the nation in which they are placed or the people of that nation is ours to take.

* The leasing nation has the right to object to anything we do using the bases, and also the right to eject us from the land with 2 weeks (NS time) notice. They also have the right to perform random, unannounced inspections of the facility to make sure that not breaches of environmental safety are occurring and that the facility is not having a negative effect upon the local population.

* We undertake that we shall under no circumstances and at no time store any fissile material at these facilities, nor shall we store there biological or chemical munitions. We also undertake to avoid as far as possible causing any disruption to the regular happenings of the people in the area, and to inform if at all possible the nation in question if we are to undertake actions which may affect them.

* The facilities are entirely our responsibility in terms of maintenance and construction. We will under no circumstances and at no time refuse to pay the agreed leasing fee to the nation from which the land is leased.

OOC: Right, don't think I've left anything out. Would you all please confiem that these are OK? I think I didn't miss any of the agreed terms.

I confirm the base on my lands on the horn of Africia, Northern portion in Somolia. http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/africa/somalia.jpg
Hurdiyo.

A fleet of merchantmen, some 17 in number, have left the Eastern port of Port Roberts, and are now proceeding toward the Chilean coast. Escorted by two Sovremennyy-II and two Udaloy-II destroyers, they have an ETA of 6 days.

Another Fleet has left from the Western port of New Manchester, bound for Hurdiyo.

The Dominion confirms that it has given DontPissUsOff the Ras Al Shagara peninsula, north of Port Blessed, on the Western bank of the Red Sea, Sudan.

We believe the guidelines set by DPUO are comprehensive and binding, and have no objections to them whatsoever.

A division has been sent to Ras Al Shagara to inspect the site and remove any GMB materials that might delay DPUO's construction efforts, and hope that this contract cements our friendly ties.

Good luck, and God bless,

OOC: Is this why I was contacted about a possible base in New Caledonia?

A ~TAG~ for now.

OOC: Pretty much. Interested?

Another convoy has departed from the West Coast, heading for Sudan. ETA 7 days.

Hurdiyo.

Would you mined, If i store my ships in you dock or an islotated costal place

IDF confirms

Before I agree to anything I need more data about your nation, and why you want the bases. I also need to have a lease agreemnet of some type.

Several more convoys, these escorted only by a pair of Sierra-IIIs, have left DPUO. One is proceeding to Country Clare, one to Southern Iceland, and another, larger convoy to Argentina and the Falklands through the Panama Canal. The Argentine convoy will be landing on the southern tip of Argentina, where Binthor has very kindly agreed to lease us a base area on the above terms.

Meanwhile, building work has begun on the Hurdiyo and Ras Al-Shagara base facilities.

Before I agree to anything I need more data about your nation, and why you want the bases. I also need to have a lease agreemnet of some type.

My nation is a Dictatorship.
I'm a peaceful nation.
Only goes to war for peacekeeping or reavange.
I am well trusted. You can count on me for support in a time of need.
I want to store my ships at your dock, so my force can reach other countries faster. If I'm at war.
So how about it?
