Zinairian General Suppliers, a major equipment contractor is looking to open a storefront catering to civilians (e.g., corporations, emergency services, diplomats and governments). Although we have made some progress, we soon realized what an undertaking this is. Therefore, we are searching for investors, partners and suppliers.

Investor: Supply us with information (usually just a link to a page about the item and pricing) about item(s) that you would like to see made available for purchase (e.g., a type of car or aircraft, a certain kind of equipment, etc.). You may supply as many or as few items as you wish. You will be payed a commission based on the number of times an item you sent in sells.

Partner: You are willing to assist in the long-term. Selecting items and finding information and pricing, setting up the storefront and processing orders, etc. We are willing to negotiate on the split of profits.

Supplier: You have a non-military product that you would like us to sell. This includes vehicles and anything else you may have designed. You will be paid cost whenever one of your items sells. We are also looking for suppliers willing to collaborate on new, exclusive products.

Please inform us if you are willing to invest, partner with or supply this venture. We feel this will create a new market supplying the crop of embassies, companies and governments surrounding us. After all, running a country isn't all about war.

OOC: Unfortunately, I don't have any products to offer you. My only ventures into drafting in NS have resulted in one hypothetical chemical weapon and two unfinished military designs. But for the meantime, I'd love to work together to get something going.

Excellent, we shall immediately announce our role as an investor, and wish to enter into the research and development stage. Should sufficient products of a high standard be produced, there should be no quarrel with the rest of the syndicate entering into a partnership with ZGS.

Yours sincerely,

Thank you for your official investment. Please provide us with any designs/information you can. You will be credited and paid accordingly when they sell. We hope this can leader to greater international collaboration.

(OOC: What kind of civil storefront are you thinking about? Maybe I can help you out for a bit.)

OOC: We plan to offer mainly vehicles as well as equipment for non-military organizations, namely corporations and other government agencies including diplomatic buyers. I'm not sure if you want to maintain sole sale rights, but I would love to be able to sell some of your vehicles. I've also heard you have a bus that maybe we could sell. That'd be great. If you're interested, we can negotiate your cut. Also, I'd like to collaborate with you on some ZMW vehicles, so tell me if that sounds interesting.

To Zinairian General Suppliers,

I wish to inquire as to becoming a partner in this organization. I have a vast amount of resources at my disposal, and could bring a few items to the table. I hope you will consider me.

Signed,
Jimmy James,
CEO, Owner,
Jimmy James Industries

(OOC: Zinaire, TG)

OOC: Are we talking modern tech or future tech here? Both is cool too.

OOC: We're talking MT. DMG, I've heard that you deal in non-draftroom-approved designs. I intend to fully comply with draftroom standards in my storefront. The Beatus, exactly what kind of resources do you have?

OOC: Bump

OOC: What exactly is draftroom?

OOC: The NSDraftroom (http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?act=idx) is where designs really ought to be reviewed before they go on the market.

OOC: Bump. We're still looking for suppliers of equipment, aircraft and emergency vehicles (although we're willing to look at anything you have to offer).

we in axmanland are a small nation and as such can in no way compete in the field of airborne weapons systems.

however we have spotted an opening in the field of diplomatic aircraft and have come up with a product to exploit it.

imagine the situation your ambassador in a far flung location is a high value asset with much important information when a hostile third party attacks the nation they are stationed with. helicopters might be able to lift him out of immediate danger but with their limited range he is still trapped in a potentially hostile environment while traditional airframes rely on long runways (often one of the first targets in a conflict) so what do you do?

enter the peregrine diplomatic V.T.O.L jet born as a marriage of the gulfstream G650 airframe with a V.T.O.L system inspired by the harrier jump jet the peregrine has a max speed of .75 the speed of sound and with a range of seven thousand nautical miles it also features three "pods" on the wings capable of mounting extra fuel tanks,sensor array's or chaff/E.C.M systems and retails for 75 million $NS we would be honored if you (or anyone else) would market it for us

We are very interested. With draftroom review (OOC: see above) we would be happy to sell it (possibly with the price reduced as it is rather high).

Proposal for sharing, developing and modernizing WiG technology:

From: Aram Duchamps, Elite Council Transit Technology Counselor
Francis Gerreau, First Class Political Scientist of the Meritocracy

To: Zinaire General Suppliers

Proposal: Three decades of isolation has greatly impacted the developmental advances of our transportation technologies. For example, a low flight ceiling and flat open expanses of marshlands has pushed us into developing and perfecting WiG(Wing in Ground) effect vehicles. If you are unfamiliar with this technology, a WiG or ekranoplane takes advantage of ground effect to increase lift of winged craft flying at very low altitudes to allow the rapid movement of large payloads at very high efficiency. Currently, our premeire passenger WiG is the PW-14L (http://www.boomspeed.com/looonatic/passengerwig.jpg) with the ability to carry 150 passengers and 15 metric tonnes of cargo over 1000miles at 450 km/h mere meters above the ground.

A common small transport Wig is the RS-06 (http://www.boomspeed.com/looonatic/hoverwing.jpg) with a range of 500 km, a top speed of 200 km/h and the ability to carry 1000 kg of passengers and equipment at high speed, this vehicle has great potential not just as a small transport, but as a coastal patrol vehicle.

If these vehicles or the design of future vehicles interests you, please contact us.

OOC: What exactly is draftroom?

Your worst nightmare.

Dear Sir or Madam,

We have large stocks that we are willing to sell, and in case of large demand, we have contracts in place with Technologie de la Prevene allowing us to lease their factories on a temporary basis.

Yours sincerely,

While we appreciate the offer, we are in no need of dehydrated water. However...perhaps if you could develop some way to store orange juice without a container for field issue. Maybe it could be kept in some spherical object and issued with an extractor. Naturally, this object should be bright orange for easy identification. Since this will be going mainly to the Navy, perhaps it should be called the Naval Orange. However, I'm sure you can do better.
