The Armed Republic of the Toori is a coalistic, war-born nation that is made up of 3 main species: The Protoss, South Lizasaurians, and Humans. Due to this melding of great technologies, the Toori have produced highly advanced, tough, and reliable weapons, and vehicles. However, due to the Toori being at war with many relentless nations that wish to assimilate the Toori, manufacture and production of these goods have been slow, and constantly under raid. We need YOUR help, via trade and boon, to sustain our military and well being. A list of our inventory is as follows, if you wish for more information, then feel free to ask.


Inventory:

1- Starships (all capable of atmospheric operations)
- Toori Dreadnaught- A massive heavy assault ship built around three massive M.A.C. s (Magnetic Accelerated Cannons) that can penetrate strait through heavily armored targets.
- Toori Juggernaught- a medium assault frigate with one main M.A.C, and a left side attachment for an external M.A.C. Can carry 60 troops, not including crew.
- Protoss Carrier- http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/c/c4/300px-Protoss_carrier.JPG Carriers can deploy a number of smaller craft: Scout fighters, Corsair interceptors, Interceptor fighters, and Shuttle transport craft. Carriers are armed with 4 photon cannon batteries on each side for defense.
-Protoss Ballista class Destroyer M.A.S (Main Assault Ship) - This is the backbone of the fleet. When in groups, they can either escort, or carry out assaults, however, are very vulnerable when alone. These are armed with two Heavy Psionic Particle Arrays (used for ship-to-ship combat, and orbital strikes, very devastating.), 4 photon cannon batteries on each side, and one automated heavy pulse laser mounted below the pylon.
- Scout class fighter/long range interceptor - http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/Scoutfirstdone.jpg The fastest, most deadly long range fighter/ interceptor in the Protoss fleet. It is the only fighter capable of slipspace and long range jumps. Maximum range: 2369.52 lightyears/726.4834 parsecs. It is armed with two automatic psionic pulse cannons on either side of the nose, wing mounted internal missile pylons, and two external pylons where photon cannons can be mounted. It has 3 high output ion engines. Maximum atmospheric speed: 10695.66 kilometers per hour/8.963427 mach.

2- Weapons
- Psi blade-
- Lightning Gun (aka: Vindicator cannon)-
- MA5B assault riffle-
- Lizasaurian Power Riffle-
- Lizasaurian fully automatic Sniper Riffle-
- M82A4 semi automatic sniper riffle- http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j143/ODJR/M82.jpg
- M91K bolt action sniper riffle-
- BR55 battle riffle-
- Toori Carbine-
- GE Mini-gun gattling riffle-
- M52A6B Gauze Riffle-
- M6Q .45cal pistol-

OOC: You need to add prices

OOC2: Toori is not my puppet, he RPs with me on other forums, we've been perfecting the Story behind South Lizasauria and many other nations we made before we knew of NS. here's proof, Toori is Artanis and I'm SL Alliance (http://z4.invisionfree.com/Time_for_Nintendo/index.php?showtopic=401) which was South Lizasauria's title when they were Soviets, now they are Reformers (Reformed South Lizasauria into a fascist nation)

IC

How much for a Ballista?

I have no need for posting prices. This is purely for trade. I will judge worth on the description of the items traded. Money is of no value to the Toori. It is of corrupt societies like the Gracians.

IC:

South Lizasauria has a large oil supply that we made by processing the oils in the cells of medical waste. Will our large petrol supply suffice?

It shall indeed. We will deliver. Though we do not use petrolium bassed goods as prepultion for our vehicles, it does come in handy for many other uses.

It shall indeed. We will deliver. Though we do not use petrolium bassed goods as prepultion for our vehicles, it does come in handy for many other uses.

IC: Be careful not to drink it or get it on your bare skin, medical waste that's been processed into petrol can be a health hazard.

Your word shall be heeded. Also, as an act of good will and a gift for this lovely Easter, along with your shipment of Destroyers, the pilots will train your crews on proper operation of this Protoss technology, since Lizasaurs and Protoss have worked together for many a years, it should not be dificult.

South Lizasauria sends it's gratitude.

The shipment convoy is ready, waiting departure orders in the Var system. We need a delivery destination planet. Also, since our forces are spread thin, we will only be able to give the convoy escort half of the traveling distance. Most of our ships are being deployed to the Komar and Silverstorm systems to aid the Protoss Expeditionary forces, and the Stringolians.

Advice: Break up the descriptions, add more detail, and all the other useful things that make a storefront enjoyable. Also, add descriptions for the weapons. I don't even sell my stuff and the descriptions in my factbook(should be linked in my sig) are much more detailed and helpful, including the stats blocks on my ships.

bump, I shall indeed do this. Anyone else wish to trade?

Remember, there is no money involved until we can get our economy up and runing well enough to support that kind of goods management. It is trade, one shipment of items for another of equal or near equal value.


Might I also remind you of our cause. We are fighting alongside South Lizasauria against the Gracians (religious hypocritical extremist cult of large proportion who wish to assimilate all who disagree with them), and the Red States (Comunist party that wishes to assimilate all and reform a new Soviet Union), and the Zerg (a visious collective of different mutations of assimilated alien races, bent on galactic domination and the assimilation of all sentient beings.). Though you may not think them of your concern, is this not your galaxy as well?

How many AK-47s will it cost per psi-blade?
Cartridges?
Drums of oil?
Nerve gas?
Drugs?
Any combination of the above?

How many used oil rigs for a protoss carrier?
Drums of oil?
Drums of oil?
Nerve gas?
Drugs?

OOC: What is the standard charge for a barrel of oil in NS? It would be better if someone besides Toori answered.


IC:
Our government is also willing to trade other forms of chemical weapons if you may request them by name.
I think an AK and two Cartridges is a fair price for a psi blade.

A canister is also a fair price.

As well as 5 pounds of Marijuana and .5 pounds of Opium
(both legal in my country, I don't know about yours.)

The Armed Republic of the Toori doesnt have much use for AK-47's, a .223caliber round is quite week and would take numerous shots to take down a target with todays armor. For one Protoss Carrier, it would be a quite fair trade for 22,575 large drums of petrolium and oil, and 72 metric tons of marijuana, for which we use for medicinal purposes only. That would be a very fair trade in your favor.

Now what you must do is elaborate on how many Carriers you wish for, and what planet and or system the exchange shall take place in. It would be a pleasure trading with your nation in present, and future. We greatly appreciate your willingness to accept our trade.


Preator Artanis

Since our nation,thou oil rich, runs on alternative fuels we would be happy to trade the black gold. we wish for 3 of your ships. As far as the MJ goes would it be possible to reduce the tonage by 50% and added on 10,000 gallons of oil?

Also what can we trade you for Psi-Blades. These are of intrest to us greatly.

We are also interested in your sniper rifles. What can we trade you for each?

Also, it seems your nation is in need of currency to buy blood. We will provide these monies in return for quanities to be negotiated later after you accept our offer.

Preator Artanis

AKs are chambered in the equivalent caliber of .308(7.62mm), the M16 is chambered in .223(5.56mm). That's the kind of thing that bugs me in a rather irrational manner.

ALSO! Zerg swarms are fairly small fry. If you need assistance in say...reducing the entirety of the zerg swarm to particulate matter in a short period of time, Iknow a guy...

Show me a Nid Hive Fleet and we'll talk about scary though.

Wait, do the carriers come with interceptors or do I have to buy those too?

Can I use Trade Agreements to buy things?

IC:

South Lizasauria is sending SFs series fighters to help protect the convoy.

IC:

SFs are in position! Ready for transit?

OOC: @Toori: I will be online briefly. Perhaps in this time we can work out details to our trade.

I have obtained the blood you were looking for...I think that is worth quite a few psi blades. Also are you interested in trading for canasters of chemical weapons which may prove useful against the zerg, I have not tested them. I have no knowledge of SKS but I will RP them as ciexusting with the AKs.
Ready to Begin trading soon.

Thank you for ubtaining the human blood I was looking for. This is most worth a trade for not just a few psi blades, but a shipment of 240. Also, I will have one of our martial arts masters teach your warriors how to properly use them. Also, as an act of gratitude, we will also give you the technology of the MAC (Magnetic Accelerated Cannon), a highly powerfull weapon that can put a high caliber shell, at unreal speeds, through a heavily armored, and shielded target.


Your trade total for our previous exchange for the carriers will follow. Calculations are being made.

IC:

Ready for transit. Convoy is en-rought. ETA of checkpoint delta, 16 hours. We have Dreadnaughts patroling that sector, so hopefully we wont get jumped by the Red States.

Umm...I don't even know how to respond.

ICly, your being ignored for godmod and outright stupidity of the highest degree, lack of information and any understanding at all.

OOC, you just traded a carrier worth billions for no more then $240,000 in oil and drugs. Seriously, godmod.

That is great but 240 is no where near what we are looking for.

Our nation does not have SKS but rather a copy-cat called MBM. It operates pretty much the same, just without the big name. We would be willing to trade thousands of these for thousands of psi-blades and perhaps 100-200 sniper rifles. Whatever numbers you want.

By the way, what did you need the blood that badly for?

OOC: For RP I will assume the Carriers come with interceptors and I will RP them in PMT and MT as well as in FT since Protoss designs were said to have changed very little in milennia so contemporary Protoss would have similar Carriers. We will also us MAC and psi-blades in these settings for the same reasons.

Very well, we would like a small shipment of MBM's for testing, and if we feel it nesicary to have them we will trade for more. We wanted the blood for scientific study, due to the fact that the Gracians (one of our three major enemies) most common blood type is A-. We wish to study this in order to cunjure weapons if possible. Very well. The Deal is done. What you have requested is being loaded onto the Carriers you requested, and they will all be shiped at once. The totals will be added up in the next post.

Where are you getting those numbers?

Perhaps oil costs a lot more in his country because they are at war and need it to power vessels and make Molitov cocktails.

No matter what the cost this store is worth it pretty much because you aren't taking money out of your defense coffer but rather trading already brought products or products that are no longer useful in your country for those of great use. I really am not sure where the godmoding is.

RL prices. The oil even at $80 a barrel is pitiful. A single tank or plane costs more then everything in that. Unless oil was worth $80 mil a barrel, but that is not possible.

Oil is not used in molitov cocktails, its gasoline. Oil to power vessels is bad, considering he's got FT carriers.

This is kind of offtopic but I would like to send a ambassador to your nation in light of our great trade and as a sign of friendship. Especially since we have a 35% Protoss population as well as a 20% Protoss-Human Genetic clone race.

OK I wasn't sure what those rules were. However, the protoss are a race from StarCraft and these are the descriptions given of them. I nor he are not just INVENTING this stuff. Perhaps he should give soem StarCraft links. And I ordered 3 carriers. Not likely to be of much effect in an RP. I purposely did not order a HUGE number of these for that reason. Also, I really do not see a huge problem with him selling his stuff for real cheap. No one ever said the carriers were new or in great shape. And I will use them definately in FTs and ok fine not MTs, perhaps PMTs depending on how advanced others technologies were. I

@Toori: Please post links to StarCraft or something showing the craft so people do not assume you are godmoding the technology. I assumed there were plenty of starcraft players here. You may want to defend yourself a little too....

Thanks for the guidance, I will use them as such.

But, is there a rule that we aren't allowed to use things from places like SC?

Is this deal detrimental in nature to good rp'ing?

I did not think so, but I humbly defer to you as I am admittedly VERY new at this.

Nope there is nothing to stop you using anything from any computer game universe be it scifi or not, the only possible issue is that of tech levels. If you are suing stuff from a scifi game then you are playing with future tech(FT) and thus pretty much all of the MT players will simply ignore you. It is possible to play both MT and FT but you have to be very careful to keep thigns clearly seperate, hence why most people use (or used to use) a "puppet" nations to play different tech levels.

Thanks for the guidance, I will use them as such.

OK I definately will not create any aggressive RP wars...to tell you the truth most of the things I am buying are for the mere coolness of having them and for defense, should need be. I have no problems with keeping things in their proper constraints.

The psi-blades aren't really much more effective than most side arm knives so I see no need to not vow to ration my use of it at this time to the members of this forum.

Yes, but you must RP the creation or setting aside of time. As with other storefronts there is usually a building period of several RL days. This is to to ensure they are not immediately called on for war and to handle building and legal issues as well as prepare for the arrival and maintaince.

OOC: We are currently NOT in any wars and do not intend to be unless called upon by our allies. We also do not intend to be in any wars, unless provoked by an aggressor. We just wish to have the goods asap for security of mind reasons.

Also since when did your nation become able to decide the delievery time of storefronts from nations who oppose you????

*sigh*

Again this is OOC, clearly. However, I offer you too take a look at any of the other established players storefronts and follow their lead as is on the stickies.
