The Allied State of Blakhole happily announces that a vast source of uranium has been found in gattaca forest in the north east of State IVY, the fourth ally to sign up in the Great Blakhole Charter. The scientists and researchers of Blakhole have carried out tests and predicts that the sources could solve Blakholes power problems for the next 50 years. The government of Blakhole, with the benefit of hindsight of the tragic Kimbuma Nucleur Disaster of the last century, does not wish to pursue construction of nucleur plants. However, the combination of cash injection from uranium export, a power shortage, and a military ambition, the government of Blakhole invites capable foreign nations to send in tender for the following:

1)4 brand new power plants, capable of producing a combined 700gigawatts of energy, to be constructed in the allied state capitals of Blakhole. The power production center at New IVY is to have a capacity of 230gigawatts. It is very important that these four power plants use renewable energy sources, and is compatible with the Bansumia Environmental protocol that the Allied States signed three years back. THe existing power plant at national capital of HyppoWarp, is to have its peak production raised by 30% to 340gigawatts for the newly built industrial region. The total for these constructions is not to exceed a $100B, which will be payable in next 10 years. Because we are very concerned about our environment issues, we insist that all interested parties must include a brief description of what type of technology or fuel (renewable) they plan to use and the extent of effect on the environment.

2) The government is willing to sell/export weapons grade classIV radioactive materials to ANY interested parties. The government, due to certain reasons, shall not discriminate buyers, and names of buyers will remain undisclosed. However, because we willing to sell to ANYONE, regardless of their past history of war or terorsim related crimes, the prices are likely to be above market average. The material maybe shipped privately to any locations.


3)Traces of plutonium and highly dense radium-H was also found with the sources. The Allied State of Blakhole would like interested nations to submit 'Missile Defense System Package', capable of tracking and shooting down ICBM, IBM, and other missile WMDs available in the market now, alongside an offensive nucleur missile systems. The government, at this time may not spend on defense, and does not guarantee purchase on the most reasonable offers, but would like to do a market evaluation. Contacting parties would be in a favorable position with any defense contracts (highly likely) the government issues in future.

come on... somebody???

come on ppl join the rp, it will be a big contract!!!!!

Wait... So you're looking for backers in your project?

We are interested in buying weapons grade Uranium, and would like to inquire about how much it will cost to buy 3 Tons worth for nuclear research.

As many of the international community will attest, Admiral-Bell is a responsible nation. However some nations are not. It would not be benificial for the international community to have this material heading to crackpots. Therefore, we will purchase all of your current uranium, plutonium, and radium supplies; and alluranium, plutonium, and radium mining sites. 10% above market price. Also, we will complete all of your wanted infrastructure in exchange for a military base in your nation.

Alberto Torres
Minister of State

OOC:Top that

Honorable Admiral Bell,

The government of Blakhole admires your protective and responsible attitude towards the international community, but also expects you to understand that we have the right to do what is best for us. Hence we shall wait for more offers, and consider yours.

We stand firm, and this is NOT negotiable, that no foreign military base will be built on the soil of our country.

errr.. project?? ya, we want power plants, and want to sell uranium, have military ambitions, not enough money for the latter, yet!!!

To the honourable leaders of Blakhole,

as the minister responsible for diplomatic and other foreign affairs, we would like to offer our solidarity in your nations right to enrich uranium and sell on to the highest bidder.

We offer our hand in peace and friendship and will support you in any would be aggressor that threatens to destabilise the peace in this region.

Humbky yours

Jayne C Gliff- Minister of foreign affairs

We are interested in buying weapons grade Uranium, and would like to inquire about how much it will cost to buy 3 Tons worth for nuclear research.

Although I am bemused that you would want 'weapons grade Uranium' for nucleur 'research', it is none of our business, and would be happy to serve our customer. We sell 50% above market price, but would give you a discount since you are our first customer, hence the total is $500000 for the three tons. However, we discourage such small orders, and may not sell retail quantities in future.

To the honourable leaders of Blakhole,

as the minister responsible for diplomatic and other foreign affairs, we would like to offer our solidarity in your nations right to enrich uranium and sell on to the highest bidder.

We offer our hand in peace and friendship and will support you in any would be aggressor that threatens to destabilise the peace in this region.

Humbky yours

Jayne C Gliff- Minister of foreign affairs

We appreciate your support and the Prime Minister is pleased that you understand our position.

Thank you

are there any interested parties for the missile defense system contracts??? it is worth a lot of money!!!!

I wish to introduce myself on behalf of our leader Yuri Kovak.
I am Docter alexander smith of the nation of Dal Gesh on the scientific board and would like to inquire about your "porduct" that you discovered and would possibly be most helpful in a prototype generator we are durrently modifing and testing.
We believe that it would benifit our research into bettering our energy outputs. though at this time we are unsure of the amount we require but informed before comming here we may buy the amount suited for testing and if it goes at plan we would be buying much more and larger quality of this product! what we are working on is functional and can be used to be built in several ways. we are even guessing its use to power large scale ships but this is upon your choice as if your willing to aid us in this project we will construct it for your nation to study and use at your pleasure.

We have carried our out standard and other special tests, and are still not sure about the full extent and potential of these new substances that we have found in the ores in gattaca forest. As one professional to another, I guarantee you that you shall find certain results very intriguing. The government at this point of time has high hopes from the newly 'baptized' U-X-301, and may not be ready to send samples to foreign nations. However, the government will be more than happy to invite your scientists to carry out any desired tests or researches on U-X-301 INSIDE Gattaca Forest Labs. They must, however, sign non-disclosure contracts, and no paperwork or documents or information carriers (USB drive, CD or hard-disks)produced DURING the research, even by your scientists, are to be carried outside the labs.
We assure you that should our own scientists conclude that the new substance does not have properties to improve any current warheads/weaponry/WMD or in circulation, and that any use of this new material will be civilian only, we would be more than happy to sell you any material AFTER our scientists have drawn their own conclusions.

Good luck on your project, and we shall further discuss the powerplants once the research is over. Meanwhile, if you accept our invitation, please send us the name and qualification of the representative. We welcome any expertise, and look forward to host your team in our newly constructed Presidential Palace in HyppoWarp.


(i know this sounds sort of suspicious and hostile, but dont back off, i am a sport.. keep playing your way)

A number of defense contractors have put forward a complete ballistic missile protection solution for BlakHole's needs. The financial sum required will not be modest - but can put a price figure with the survivial of your nation?

The Corporate Dominion of JiangGuo has approved the release of certain sensitive technologies. However, we're unwilling to release information relating to this on a public channel.

If the government of BlakHole is interested; advise on the arrival of a technical team at the transmitted co-ordinates.

OOC: Now if you wish you may RP the arrival of the team as well.

We stand firm, and this is NOT negotiable, that no foreign military base will be built on the soil of our country.

Blakhole,
That is just fine. Our nation can see how closely you hold soviernty. Also, we will pay more than any other bidder by 5% on these nuclear supplies. Thirdly, we will gladly enter negotiations for the contract and will math any othher price and add 5%.

From: Doctor A.Smith, Dal Gesh's Science Board

with much consideration the board has concluded with some conditions that any team we send to you must go by custom and we worry of the team we will send to you. but ask we may has daily transmissions from supplied equipment they will use in their own time to make sure things are going well for them. another condition is that this will be for the time being two years though this may change later on as you may know from experience yourself. in this will be the listing of those who will be sent and what comes with them.

-Personnel-
Professor Teila Chovek (team leader)
Doctor Alexander Smith
Doctor Danielle Tobak
Mechcanics Engineer Tom Shovek
Engineer Cris Galmov
Engineer Frank Dovare

-List-
Sparks is Doctor Danielle Tobak's cat.
one Heavy Hover transport with rear ramp door.
New Rise Inc. computers and equipment (from the leading tech company in Dal Gesh)
Medical Droid 3rd generation with interacting capabilities
Frank Dovare's medical treatments administered by medical unit
long range telecommunications with rotating camera with 8 screens

note those who have made it to the list have shown great promise and have graduated from Dal Gesh's school for the most gifted in minds and talent. Learning, Talent, and Honor. are Valermore's prized saying with also the cutting edge technologoy and transportation to campus. but as custom anyone who isn't apart of the science team we send out must speak with the team leader only unless given special permission by the team leader.

OCC: Blakhole are you MT or FT? Because their is no modern power plant that will be able to get even close to the 230 gigawatts of power you stated. The closest is a Hydroelectric powerplant that produces only up to 12 to 18 gigawatts of power.

ok, yes, this is sth that i really wanted to know!!! WAT IS MT/FT?!?!?!?! and how do i figure out which one i am???

(this is an RP, does it HAVE to stick to these rules that strictly???)

umm... if other nations are in future, is it possible they r using time machines and coming back to construct things for us??:cool:

We are pleased that you are considering you understand our position and consider our offer. Please congratulate Professor Teila Chovek on receiving Chair on the Royal Guild of Modern Scientist: I being a scientist myself am in awe of his work, his last paper on quantum mechanics was a gem. It all looks good, except that, could you please explain where do you plan to place the camera, and why is it required. Gattaca Forest Lab is located near some sensitive sights, and unless there is a very rational explanation for this, it is highly unlikely that permission for that particular piece of equipment will be granted.

We understand that the scientists are human beings with families, and we feel insulted that you feel there are reasons to worry about their safety. We encourage that their family shall move into Blakhole on a temporary basis, and would be happy to provide for their residential expenses. We also want to state that any form of communication shall be screen-checked by BIN (Blakhole Intelligence Network), and that there is strong anti-espionage laws in Blakhole

We look forward to seeing you soon.

To,
Leader, JiangGuo

We are very grateful that Your government has permitted the release of valuable information for this contract. However, price is an important issue for a relatively new nation like us, and could you please submit us an estimate, and a non-classified general description of the weapons system that the contractors are offering? Also, should we find the project reasonable, you must understand that payment would be made in installments over a substantial period of time.

Thank You,
Georgios Katanapolous
Military Co-Ordinator, Gattaca Forest Enrichment Project

OOC: Now if you wish you may RP the arrival of the team as well.

To: Admiral Bell

Some minor sales had already been made, and we expect a team of scientists to arrive from Dal Gesh to assist our research on some new material we found on the mines. However, your offer of 5% above the highest bidder, is accepted, and the supplies shall start arriving once the bidding process is over.

Also, we feel that you send a team of engineers to review the geography of the region before you accept the power plants contract: our engineers believe that setting up power lines may be difficult. Also, as mentioned in the contract, please provide us with a brief description of what type of renewable source you wish to use, and the environmental effects.

Lastly, we are not yet sure about handing out the missile defense project. Please be patient.

(there is MT/FT issue, power plant capacity may be reduced, cost (ie, the amount you get paid) stays same)

OOC: MT=Modern Tech, or what you would use today (tanks, etc). FT=Future Tech, or things like lasers used as weapons, etc (solid-shot guns can be considered FT if it is advanced enough).

Anyways,

IC: The Intergalactic Alliance of Aerospace Forces would like to inquire if there are any more normal (non-weapon) grade of fisson materials left.

OOC: We are volunteering for the power plant, not the SDI.

A engineering team is being sent. However, power transfer will be no problem. They should arrive in a day. We plan to use non-dammed omni-directional turbines in all rivers and many caosts. These provide similar or greater levels of power than traditional hydroelectric.

To correct your mistake, Professor Teila Chovek is a woman.
Her brother Tom Shovek recently changed the field in our technology to give us better use of devices in place at this time and indeed change the first letter of his last name due from a family conflict.
Though in my personal view she is trying to resolve the issue which may delay some progress as a heads up to you.
In the condition of the long range communication device will have to be placed indoors somewhere if you don't wish things to be compromised but when the team arrives she will be able to tell you more than I can through transmissions about the project we are working in some detail.

Also on the matter of bringing families with us has been prohibited because of the nature of this work.
Also I cannot remember which engineer is the trouble maker but have a watchful eye when that one is around exposable gases as he seems to be a hazard.
We hope to see you within the month if all things are good on our end.

To: Dr A.Smith, Dal Gesh's Science Board

We thank you for your warning about one of your engineers, and would be pleased if you 'remembered' who exactly it was. We shall run our own background checks. My apolozies for the mistake about Teila Chovek's gender, but that does not change what she has achieved, what a talened woman. We hope her family issues end quickly.

Thank you.


(hazardous gases?? are you gonna come up with some posts about your ppl blowing up our labs???)

Yes we have some non-weapon grade materials left.

How do u figure out how to know if MT/FT??

To: Admiral Bell

We admire the work your engineering team has performed in such a short time. The technical descriptions of the proposed plants sound good. We wish that you begin construction work as soon as possible.

Ooc: if there were any tanks like fuel or such he's basicly a walking accident waiting to happen.

The engineer i had met i think his name was Frank though he was a walking accident waiting to happen in my opition though on the team leader's request for him to stay on faith her brother would watch him.
I'll be coming along this team as well as you can see by the roster i sent you.
though we will need cordinates as to where you wish to meet us when we do come.
Thank you for being hospitable to me during this time.

You shall land on the civilian airport at HyppoWarp, Blakhole. From there, an attache of military personnel shall escort your team to the Gattaca forest lab, if the team wants to start work immediately. On the other hand, the Board of Tourism offers that the team shall be hosted by the Board for a week: the theme park in the outskirts of HyppoWarp, and the Gattaca Safari are good places to be.

The fission materials does not blow up through accidents, the whole process of starting a chain reaction requires high activation energy, so I am sure we are not looking at a nucleur disaster. Although the fuel tanks located near the labs will, in case of an accident, may cause several casualties as it is close to the infantry barracks. If Teila insists, so be it.

(ok, seriously, dont come up with a nucleur accident, uranium just doesnt blow up, trust me, google it if u want... and hmm... barracks, for low ranked soldiers, i can liv with that!!!)

(i know uranium doesn't blow up just a thought to keep the guy away from that sort of explosive thing but other than that he's fine. he does it when he's nervous only.)

From: Teila Chovek (team leader)

Its finally a pleasure to greet you as i had been repeatedly interrupted by every detail of what will be sent with us.
As for our equipment's transport will be the engineers of this team I’m leading will be driving it.
As for Alexander, I hope he has been hospitable though both suggestions would be nice as perhaps getting to work after resting from the trip there would be good.
Though after that we will need to familiar our selves with the work site and hopefully he has been helpful to you in our preparation?
He’s been arguing with Frank since the first moment he heard he was coming.
Though I don’t see why he thinks frank is a walking disaster zone.
Excuse me I need to see Danielle and help her get her cat out of the old vents I hope to enjoy this new first experience of a joint work.

The team of engineers began staking out areas. Tidal areas, fast runnning rivers,
even some only seasonal areas were scouted. Many of these were close to cities, so power transmission was not an issue. The engineers sent their proposed sites to Blakhole and waited.

(OOC:when can I buy the Uranium?)

Encrypted Official Dilopmatic Channel to Blakhole

As part of our standard greeting package we are hearby offering a 20 year old Tritium fueled, thermonuclear weapon to your nation, with a maximum yeild of 12 megatons of TNT. This weapon will be shipped, inert via guarded freighter or aircraft, it is your choice. It also includes the plans for the gas centrifuges and an explanation of how to enrich uranium.

[END]

[OOC: Before you go and slaughter me for giving away nukes, Tritium has a half-life of ~10 years, meaning this bomb had too little fuel for going thermonuclear, it can however go off with just the primary HE explosives. The Uranium fission component is missing. Its a gift to nations because of the invaluable information it could provide, but it is ultimately useless as a weapon.]

Our nation would like to order 200 Tons of normal-grade uranium, for a research project on miniature power reactors. We will pick up the materials ourselves (once order has been confirmed) by escorted bulk freighters.
