The 11 o'clock news comes on through televisions all over the world,

"We have breaking news out of south-eastern Europe today. The first nation to peacefully break away from Yugoslavia was recognized today by the UN, and it's government has formed it's Army, Air Force, and Navy. In other news..."

President Alexander cuts off the TV in his hotel as he finishes fastening the last button of his suit. Today he must give his first formal address to the UN and the world. His limo is waiting for him on the first floor, and drives him to the UN building without incident. The speech starts quickly after his arrival,

"My fellow peaceful brothers and sisters of the world, I am so happy that my people's borders have been recognized and our soverignty granted. This marks a new point in the East European history, as a nation is born without conflict and is open to the world. Anything that the United Nations or any nation can do to help us in our mission for peace will be greatly welcomed and needed, as we strive for a great beginning chapter of our history. Thank you and good day"

The President leaves the room, flanked by "Wolves" special forces members for security. His Minister of Defence and Treasury stay behind to accept and donations of arms or money, and to answer any questions.

OOC: Odd that a newly created nation would alreay have special forces (or any good special forces)

If your new nation requires any goods or services Mikosolf has ample supply to sell!

OOC: They would be trained by spetznaz due to their communist past, but they are second rate.

IC: Defense Minister: "Anything that our nation can afford, would be of interest, information on your arms, infrastructure, ships(cargo or military) or anything else would be needed. Thank you."

One of our favorite assault weapons is this:
AE-90s
Caliber: 6.56x50 mm
Action: Gas operated, rotating bolt
Overall length: 820 mm in basic configuration, butt extended
Barrel length: 300 mm in basic configuration also a 500 mm SAW version
Weight: ~ 2.8 kg empty in basic configuration
Rate of fire: ~ 700 rounds per minute
Firing Modes: Semi-Automatic/3 round burst for Basic and 3 round burst/Full automatic for SAW
Magazine capacity: 30 rounds (STANAG) or 90-rounds double drum in Automatic Rifle/SAW role

Price if I do remeber was around 2100 a piece.

Or we can sell surplus M-16s at 1500. (as well as other US design weapons (stingers and the like))

As for infastructure we can offer a wide variety from road work to railways to powerplants!

Ships (millitary) may be pushing it budget wise, but pretty much what you need we can make. (We use intergrated construction, the same piece is used in many things (especially concrete).

The ARSB sincerely welcomes Independent Macedonia to the world stage. If your nation requires anything from economic to financial to defense aid or equipment, we will be happy to provide it, even going as far as helping to defend your nation by either basing troops within it or through a defensive alliance.

Once again, congratulations on your peaceful secession from Yugoslavia...

Defense Minister to A few rich people:
"We will take 350 AE-90s, two batches of 3000 M-16s to be paid for over and delivered over the next two years, an ammunition deal for 5.56mm and 6.56mm amunition over the next three years for up to 100,000 rounds respectively. Also, military grade trucks(70) and BTR-90s(50) or M-113s(60) would be needed. A deal for tour help in the construction of a hydroelectic plant would be needed as well, you name the price of these things, and you will get your payment over the next two years."

"Thank you for your kind gesture of brother hood, we will keep your generosity in mind in the future. If you need any joint training excercises or peace-keeping make sure to keep us in mind."

The estimated project cost for hydroelectric power would be around 150-200 million depending on the size of the project. It would be best if you could supply your own building material (less transport costs) and we could provide the technical stuff (the turbines and electronics) for lets say 27 million.

735 000 for the AE-90s and 4 500 000 for the M-16s.

The 200,000 round deal lets set at 285,000. (about a dollar 1.50 per bullet)

These materials can be shipped immediatly. The M-113s will begin to arrive shortly (must be constructed) at the cost of (thinking 125,000 per vehicle [cant find actual price]) 7 500 000.

We thank you for your buisness!

The Empire of Fate and Honor is willing to construct, for free, a nuclear power-plant to provide first-rate power for your nation to thrive upon. To fuel the reactor we are also able to sell you the low-grade uranium required to run it, of course you can't produce weapons from this material; we would never proliferate that technology. All we ask in return is that your nation provide the labor that is necessary for our contractors to complete the job.

The Emperor also wishes to offer you a cheap alternative to these expensive weapons and ammunitions that you are purchasing. We will sell you your required number of AK-105 assault rifles along with the schematics to produce your own ammunition for $250.00 a piece.

For anything else check our storefront: Imperial Arms (http://mohammed70070.tripod.com/Homepage.htm)

Empire of Fate and Honor, my nation will take up your offer on the Nuclear Powerplant, and will provide the labor. We would also like to order 6000 AK-105 weapons and ammo schematics, since my nation has been under communist control for such a long time our military are better trained with Russian weapons. We thank you for your assistance in helping our nation become more self-dependent in power and ammo production. Our Ministry of Defence will handle the payment and transaction of weapons. We would like to build the Nuclear powerplant 10km north of the Skopje district, our Ministry of Infratructure will be in charge of helping you in everyway to construct that plant.

The weapons have been packaged and sent. They should arrive within the week along with the schematics to create your own ammunition.

Contractors from a private company inside the Empire of Fate and Honor who have been awarded the contract should be arriving on a cargo-jets with the equipment and supplies necessary to create the nuclear powerplant.

The Emperor is always happy to make new friends, as that is also destroying a potential enemy. He has also decided to deliver to your nation 100 LAV-25 fighting vehicles (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/lav-25.htm) to assist your fledgling military. May peace and prosperity fall upon your fields like a soft summer rain.
