The Duchy Arms Herself

Ruggkrook
01-09-2007, 02:47
It hadn't taken long for the Duke of Ruggkrook to notice that the world was a far more violent place then he anticipated. All around the world, wars and killings were running unfettered, and often unopposed by the international community.

It was clear to the Duke that the Grand Duchy was in need of weapons and arms.

The military was hard pressed for money however, and seemed resistant to change. Their tank models were old an outdated, infantry were still taught trench warfare tactics, and planes had never seemed to take on. So after much deliberation the Duke proposed a plan.

Nations of the World

The Grand Duchy of Ruggkrook asks that your surplus, outdated, or outmodled weapons/vechicles not be thrown away, but donated to The Grand Army. We will take whatever can be spared.

The Mandalorian Empire would like to offer you our custom-made Mirza MBT's. They are a dirt cheap and can be a formidable weapon against ground and air forces alike.

The Empire hopes that Ruggkrook will view this gift as the beginning of a warm and mutually beneficial relationship between our two nations.

They will send the equipment via cargo vessel. The cover story for the cargo will be fruit imports to avoid being tracked...

Of course, we'd be glad to build an embassy in your fine nation, just give us the address of the plot assigned to us and we shall send our staff inmeadiatly.

You are, of course, invited to set up an embassy in The World Soviet Party, you need only post an application here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=510655).

You are also invited to join the Soviet Commonwealth (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=535079), dont be fooled by the name though, the alliance stands for no social, economic or political system, it's just named like that after one of it's founders.

TO: The Duke of Ruggkrook
FROM: Robert Donovan, Foreign Minister, Commonwealth of Tolvan

RE: Military Aid

The Commonwealth of Tolvan makes the following donation to your fledling military's modernization:


1,000x M113A4 APCs
200x M125 120mm mortar carriers (M113 chassis)
150x M901 Improved TOW Vehicle (M113 chassis)
1,000x TOW missiles
200x Mastiff Armored Utility Vehicles
20x AH-64E Super Apache attack helos


All we ask in return is for the right to preposition a small garrison of troops and equipment in your nation.

Your military will benefit from training alongside Tolvanic troops, who are without a doubt among the world's finest. In addition your economy will see a marked impact as Tolvanic troops are the some of the best paid in the world and like most young men like to spend money.

We await your reply.

Once again our thanks go out to the World Soviet Party, Czechalrus, and Tarlag for their contributions, wich will help the Duchy in ways that cannot even by measured.

As to Tolvan's proposal, we allow equipment to be stored in the Duchy but no foreign troops are allowed to be stationed. Civillian contractos are alright however.
