We would like to exchange 21,000,000 barrels of crude oil (look up our nation--our currency is the Alaskan sweet crude :D ) in exchange for construction equipment, as we need to rebuild our capital city, Great Woody City. It was, unfortunately, nuked by terra-ists.

We also need medical products to treat the roughly three million injured, as well as (edit:any available metal products) for use in reconstruction.

Please TG me with the amount of equipment you are willing to offer in exchange for my oil.

21,000,000 barrels of crude oil may be a little more than we expected. Perhaps that number can be adjusted some? :P

Reply with confirmation, and we shall send a cargo ship in your direction with the noted items. We regret that we are unable to provide any notable metal fabricated items.

Tdas would be very interested in buying a large number of your scout vehicles possibly all.

While Tdas because of its nature actualy has no industry owned by the government we cant offer you any development plants, we can give you some of existing aircraft fleet.

So we will agree to give you 2 airbus Aa380s the largest commerical airplanes in the world decked out in complete luxury and maintained by our military engineers which make up part of our excutive fleet. In return for all 30 AXL-8 Military Scout vehicles.

I am interested in purchasing your aircraft carries, and would like to inquire as to the cost.
Tessen

Tdas,

Unfortunately, in all fairness, Tessen would be getting the better deal out of that military scout vehicles for 2 airbuses deal. And, as much as we would love to have one of those within our privately-owned commercial fleet, we don't quite have the facilities large enough to accomodate two of those massive airliners.

Even just one of those is also a huge drain on the expenses. None of our airlines seem to be interested in them. Might there be something smaller you'd be interested in parting with for all of the available military scout vehicles?

The Sovereignty of Pie,

One of the Kitty Hawk Class Aircraft Carriers costs $400 million. Two would cost you $800 million. That's the price at which I recieved them.

Since you are a small nation, I should note that an aircraft carrier does cost a lot to maintain, and I would caution you that it could be a large drain (realistically) on your defense budget. However, if you are still interested in purchasing both, I will sell both of them to you at cost. I do notice that you do have the available funds to purchase both.

Let me know, and we can close this deal. I am happy to hear of your interest.

It's a pleasure doing business with you. The "(30) AXL-8 Military Scout vehicles (Equivalent to Bradley MBT's)" are yours. They will be available to you as soon as you send a cargo vessel (with the Abrams tanks) to pick them up at Tessen's Superior port.

Tessen,

Langola's main industry is arms manufactoring. We would be willing to trade 5 F/A-18 Hornets per year if you provided us with either constrution vehicles or Agricultural parts. Which ever is better for you.

We have ample supply of both contruction and agricultural machinery. Which do you need more of?

We would rather construction vehicles.

Thanks,

Langola,

Construction vehicles it is then. Five F/A-18 Hornets per year for a comparable supply of heavy construction equipment is an offer The Republic of Tessen would be happy to accept.

We await your confirmation, and will happily draw up the papers to make the trade deal official.

-Tessen
Langola

Seems fair to us.

P.S. How much do you call a comparable price.

Langola,

According to the Roman Republic Military Store -- a good pricing example -- an F/A-18 is retailing for $12 million. Your offer of five per year would come to a total of $60 million. Thus I would say that a "comparable price" worth of construction equipment in trade would come to around $60 million. :)
