Blood Moon Goblins

It was announced today that Blood Moon has launched its first ICBM (Dubbed the GICM Mark 1), which was attached to the nations first hydrogen bomb. Both devices opereated quite well, the missile landed some five hundred miles out in the Waste, whereupon the 6 megaton thermo-nuclear device detonated, creating the usual large glass crater.
There will be no humour in this post. It is entirely serious.
In order to convey the seriousness of this notification, here is a picture of a kitten, the most serious of all creatures.

Sadly, the kitten was eaten by the photographer after the picture was taken.

We applaud the nation of Blood Moon Goblins in their accomplishment. ViZion's ViZion World Corporation is interested in selling to your nation six nuclear weapons at full price, and we will build one free silo to help jump-start your nations nuclear arsonal.
HOWEVER, there are terms in which your nation must agree to:
The six nuclear ICBM's your nation would buy from us, as well as those bought in the future, and any missiles launched from the silo we build for your nation, are not be used except in the case of self defense as a last resort.
Your nation may also not use these weapons against any nation fighting against genocide or terrorism, or who supports either the nation of ViZion or Jarridia.
If your nation cannot agree to those terms, we will not sell to your nation. If your nation agrees, and then does not abide by these terms, ViZion and Jarridia reserve the right to forcefully remove your government from power, dismantle your military, and retake any non-used nuclear weapons, rather they are from ViZion World Corporation or not.
If you wish to continue with your special purchase of 6 full-priced ICBM's and one free silo, your total cost will come to $40 billion in USD. Each ICBM holds 25 megatons.
Please get back to us at your earliest convenience. Thank you!
OOC: Of course, this could always be done under the table without the terms. Corporations can always be bribed. Say... double up to a cost of $80 billion USD.

The Blood Moon Kingdom cannot agree to these terms, as they impose such restrictions on us and could be easily exploited by allies of your nation in any case.
As to silos, we have them. SRBMs and MRBMs have been present in Blood Moon for some time, and Goblins are quite good at building underground structures.
Plans have been made to construct an additional twelve ICBMs mounting both nuclear and thermonuclear warheads. An equal number of MRBM silos are being modified to accept the larger missiles.

Intentional subtlty is not...Goblinish. They arent much used to money either :P)
