Morgenroete announces Onogoro Mass Driver Facility

We of the Republic of Morgenroete are proud to announce the completion of the Onogoro Mass Driver. This structure uses electromagnets to launch objects into space at a fraction of the cost of a traditional launch. Our nation has spent an innumerable amount of funds of the design construction of this facility.

We are proud to announce the availability of its use to other nations. For a fee that is less then the cost of a traditional rocket launch we will launch your cargo, ship or satellite into orbit. To take advantage of this service please telegram our state department with a cargo manifest, the price will be negotiated upon approval of the cargo. The cargo will be inspected to make sure it matches the manifest. You may have a representative accompany the inspection team if you wish. We will also provide designs for a Mass Driver compatible ship.

We hope all nations will take advantage of this new technology to expand the use of space travel.

Signed,
The Most Honerable President of the Republic of Morgenroete

OCC: Due to the fact that your economy is "Good" and your population is only 7 million, I would imagine that this project would be impossible for your nation to achieve. Unless you can convince me to believe your claims, I'm going to Ignore this thread.

IC: Shut it, you're right but how was he to know about these constraints, if you had explained it less agressively, you wouldn't be feeling my rant right now.

Nice idea Morgenreoete, I can't participate in this thread ICly because I'm currently in a revolution, so my scientists saying "Great idea" wouldn't be very feasible, because most of them are either :-

A.) Dead

B.) Hiding in a bunker

Nice idea, once again.

It has come to my attention, that the Morgenroete Administration enjoys spreading propaganda about giant 'drivers', rail-guns, coil-guns, or the like, to the world. Well, I'am personally here to tell the Morgenroetian Administration, that a nation of your simplicity and extremely small size, can not physically, virtuallly, or even mentally, construct what you are trying to shove down our throats as truth.

Sincerely,
Czar Charles Hayden

OoC: Hell, I'll back you with that, even if its just to back up Kriegorgrad and help Morgenroete.

(OOC) When I came up with this idea my economy was superb, then right before I posted it went down. So I was like ya that will show the strain the construction has had on my economy. (/OOC)
We thank you all for your generous contributions. The design and construcion of this facility has nearly bankrupted our small nation. The overall purpose of this facility is to make possible the construcion of a free floating space colony at Lagrange point 3. The projects name is Heliopolis. To complete this lofty ideal, we would have to generate funding. That is where the idea of providing launch services to other nations originated.

(OOC)When I say nearly bankrupt, I mean nearly Bankrupt. As in my army consists of like 30 Astray M1's (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/seed/mbf-m1.htm) with machine guns and a couple hundread soldiers. Please Patronise this service. Thanks! (/OOC)

(Morgenroete: No offense, but the Astrays might be a little bit beyond your fledgling nation. However, I'd be more than happy to "officially" *cough, cough* give you the technology needed for a Mobile Suit, so you could produce them without anyone crying "foul!". Of course, in exchange, I ask to be able to use your fancy new mass driver to launch some things into space. ;) )

My nation started out in the MS age. I'll launch whatever you want, provided it's not N/B/C weapons or other orbital strike weapons. For a price.

(Don't worry, it's no weapon. I'm asking if you can launch parts for my new orbital ship dock.)

A wonderful ooc post: And what exactly is so hard about building a friggin gun? Yes, I know, IRL, there are several rather harsh problems regarding building 'em Coil/ Railguns. Nonetheless, once there is a solution for them, the resources needed to build simple (Though oversized) guns are ludicrously small, compared to what you need for conventional rockets/ space shuttles etc.. And, while we're at it, Keep your worthless 'advise' for yourself. For the thousands time, There are no population requirements whatsoever for anything. If you don't like the way other players play the game, ignore them, sure. But don't try to shove your truth down our throats. Now, if this was actually about launching $Superbattleship, yes, I would laugh, too. However, it isn't, so, be polite, and, uh... Go away, possibly?

The Hack, sick of the arrogance of nations who would presume to dictate what scientists in other nations can and cannot do, is pleased to offer the Republic of Morgenroete seed money in the sum of five hundred (500) billion dollars. As well as various reports and blueprints of similar items that may be helpful for reference.

Furthermore, this money is a grant, so no repayment is necessary. We wish the Republic of Morgenroete the best of luck with their plans.

I assume you will direct similar advice to, say, Decisive Action, whose UN stats indicate his population are too stupid to feed themselves?

I also have large manufacture capacities for mobile suits, especially astrays and GINNs. I could help you there too. And when building your colony, watch out for my colonies and PLANTs, thanx.

Honourable leaders, we applaud your ambition in the undertaking of such a product. To get to the point, your project has piqued our interest. We would like to purchase the schematics and technical data for this, as we feel that it could greatly aid our nation. We would be willing to pay $120 billion dollars in exchange, and we also promise not to use our construction to attack your nation. Please consider our offer.
