USFU Floods markets with goods

The Fedral Union
26-05-2005, 00:31
The USFU Trade department today announced that the union is unleashing its brave new plan to move in to several markets, by taking economic control so several resources, and flooding the market with Anti matter reactors High tech MFG goods high tech Industrial replication devices ,high energy phased plasma, Frictionless clothing, Transporter technologies and exotic food, and Advanced alloys, though some of this plan might fail the department has high hopes buy flooding galactic markets with huge amounts of these materials the union could be made a competitor in to the last economic frontier.

As we have no interest in playing our wealth against others for purposes of ego and potential increase of funds, we see little interest in this venture. The Union may burn itself out and be reduced to the galactic equivalent of old Earth Taiwan if it wishes, but Chronosia shall never bear items with a 'Made in The Fedral Union' Stamps. We support ourselves, and aid those who we view as worthy. As a result, we wish you good luck, for in the long run of this economic gamble; you may need it.

The Socialist Republic wishes to form a need-based supply contract with the USFU Trade Department for any and all of the following technology components that department has available.
-Modulated graviton beam emitters (tractor beams)
-Molecular transporters
-Multi-molecular replication devices
-Hyperspace jump drives
-Advanced electronic control systems
-Advanced medical systems

These and possibly other systems are desired by the government of the Socialist Republic of Xanthal. If you are interested in contracting, present specifications of the systems you are willing to sell in the listed categories and provide a per-unit price quote on each. We will examine the offers and respond as soon as possible.

The Unified Systems of Siesatia has declared Tariffs on any product made by the The Fedral Union. Less than .0001% of products sold in Siesatia are made in TFU, and now the recent flood of lesser quality materials has prompted this responce as Importers scrambled for the goods. These Tariffs will keep a balance on the goods, and keep the All Consuming Siesatian Market from lessening. Vector Galactic will continue to sell high quality plasma harvesting technology and refining technology, as it has for over 300 years.

Trade dept: uhh no our goods arint lesser to any on we have a hugely massive high tech MFG base so baiscly all our products are top quality, so Siesatia attempt at an insult to our goods is void.


The union will accept this offer, the goods you have requested are relatively cheap, compared to other nations. quoting from your list

-Modulated graviton beam emitters (tractor beams) [TFU Market cost: 200,000- 5,000,000UCD per 100 units
-Molecular transporters [TFU market cost: 300,000 – 5,000,000 Per 100 units]
-Multi-molecular replication devices [TFU market cost: 600,000 – 4,000,000 Per 150 units]
-Hyperspace jump drives [TFU market cost: 600,000 – 4,000,000 Per 100 units]
-Advanced electronic control systems [TFU market cost: 100,000 – 1,000,000 Per 550 units]
-Advanced medical systems [TFU market cost: 200,000 –900,000 Per 250 units]

1 unit consists of 100 – 500 devices depending on the product)

if you wish you negotiate a lower price we will be glad to compensate for you

The nation of No Endorse acknowledges this bold play. However, we do not currently have trade with your nation that we know of, and we produce most everything internally, with few trading partners. You can flood the market, but we won't mind. Please reconsider this course of action that will, ultimatly, bankrupt your nation.

The Siesatian Trade Commission laughs at TFU, as no explination as to what a MFG is... It is believed internally that MFG is 'Meat from God'.

So therefor, they are too busy laughing at your high tech Meat from God base, which is assured to the highest of qualities. To draft a reasonable responce.

Still Laughing....

Actually, the only uses of that acronym are for:
Message from God
Marinefliegergeschwader (German Navy Air Wing)
Mixed Flowing Gas (an accelerated-aging test)
Modified Frigate
Multi-Function Gateway

Therefor, it would help if TFU would explain before it creates acronyms.

Still Laughing...

ooc: Then in this venture you are loosing considerable money. You're flooding the market with expensive goods, but the ammount you're producing lowers the value of them, at some point you have to profit. Though you could be going the Walmart way of making an extremely small profit on each sell, but moving an insane ammount of units.

secret IC transmission:
Currently our nation is doing pretty well in most fields. We are developing some AI software and neural interface technologies that we can export at some point to you. Unfortionatly, we are having great difficulty with our temporal research. If you have any goods or technologies that can aid us in our development, we'd gladly purchase some. Also, we've had some shortages of certain repulsorcraft parts. We'll gladly buy until the shortages are allieviated.

ooc: I'll post a topic about the temporal stuff probably tomorrow, still proofing and making sure it's where I want to start... do you think that a super-modified hypergate could work as a temporal portal?

Trade dept secure channel response:
We can help you with your temporal research, and provide you with the goods you are missing and or lacking; we have much interest in what you have to offer in particular the AI. The union will also provide you with inertial impulse engines, witch use Inertia to move, and would provide your craft with swift attack abilities or out running capabilities.

Official Ridgian Message:

While a foolhardy move, Jangle Jangle Ridge sees no real reason to be unhappy about this, unless the goods are inferior. In order to assure ourselves that this is not so, we wish for TFU to supply us with a Nor'sek-style 5-pool Gravatic cannon, equivalent to a grade 17 Ridgian gravatic weapon of same type.

Encrypted response:
The AI system is still highly experimental, but we'll keep you updated. Currently we're looking at a way for the AI to control the way its processors are linked.

Our ships use Ion arrays, and we have had trouble fitting impulse engines into the same power feeds and mounts, even when extensively modified. We will have to decline such an offer.

As for the temporal machinery, we are having trouble forging different componets. Currently we use massive coils to channel the energy, but we can only have a maximum of two main coils through which 90% of all the energy is eventually routed due to design. These coils have a severe burnout threat, and we are afraid that if they do, the power could overload and produce feedback, destroying the system and widening the temporal rift. As you can see, this would be disasterous. There are numerous failsafes, but prevention is better than treatment.

OOC: You like to dish it out but don't like to take it? (Points to TFU's tendancy to poke fun at my own mistakes in the Temporal thread every day, to the point of near harassment.)

Oh well, there are plenty of good Roleplayers who don't wank, and know how to spell Nazi. Have fun being an Uber Hyper Econo Power. The LMAO (League of Moronic Acronyn Organizations) Will be laughing along the entire way.

Response secured channel : for the engines our engineers are a master of gravity and inertia so we could possibly adapt an engine for your ships using experimental dark fusion reactors . witch would help your ships pump out enormous amounts of power, our dark fusion cores are experimental we currently use warp cores on our ships but we are readying a class of ship using the dark fusion reactor. If you wish we could overhaul one of your ships and install a dark fusion reactor assembly and power system.. as for your temporal problem we have nanites that can possibly adapt our technology to yours, say one of our temporal cores could possibly replace your coils it would be relatively easy and small to install with nanites, furthermore as for your AI we may have a few systems that would enable the AI to link it would possibly be a mini Sub net.

Secret IC to TFU: In order to test your production abilities, we are requesting a weapon built to the following specs. If this is met, we will raise the embargo, and pay you the lump sum of 1,000,000,000,000 USD.

Power range of 20.5 giga-Amps
.05% rogue quark emittance rate
8275 Mega-thule power supply
Longitudinal deviation of no more than .00025 meters
Positronic-flow compliant
Devoid of Archeo-Tech
Compliant with all applicable UN and GCC regulations
75.246 Newton/Millisecond projection speed


Meeting these requirements exactly will result above rewards.

Because of recent sales by The Fedral Union uncovered by the Ministry of Information and the Trade Department's multilaterally destructive sales policy, the Xanthalian Ministry of Economics has reason to believe that the United States' goods are either contraband or of an inferior or basically nonfunctional nature. To avert the possibility of future problems, the Ministry of Commerce has decided to direct the military to seek purchase of its required materials from independent sources.

Thank you,

Due to the large delay, we assume you do not have what we requested readily available. This dissapoints us. Because of your failure, we must ask you to leave. You have not proven a suitable alternative to the already-present sources. If you do not comply, we will be forced to use militarial force. Please respond with more haste than you did to our previous request.

OOC: Calm down there, guy. Not only did I not state that I had in-character knowledge of your sale in my post, but you're the one violating your own OOC ignore of temporal technology by selling it. I did not and do not claim to know of your sale IC, and I'll thank you to not yell at me; especially for something I didn't do.

I made the contract IC, I cancelled it IC. I never said anything about knowing about your secret transaction IC, and it's my right to make OOC decisions based on IC information whether my nation has it or not. In this case, I was concerned by your self-contradiction regarding temporal technology and decided that it would be best to not risk someone ignoring me later because I used your technology. That in mind, I calmly and peacefully withdrew from the agreement IC. I don't see any problem here, and I don't understand why you're so angry about it.

Secret encrypted transmission from the head of Foreign Relations:
The AI project is currently handled in a different division, and it would be politically... difficult... to get any aid to it. The temporal division would be happy to get help, but we'd like some units compatable with hypergates. This is a project that we hope to be able to install on new hypergates and upgrade existing ones for.

There are members of our government who are quite opposed to the use of dark fusion, saying that it is too dangerous, too costly, et cetera. Too many people are currently on the payrole of major buisnesses to want any change.
