This is just a request from Hittoria, any nation with unused, or left over artillary or naval units, please let us use them. You will be paid wisely, but if you don't, we won't care. Currently, all nations have 96 hours to respond

To: Hittoria
From: 101st Military StoreFront


I will supply you with 1 piece of 1800 artillery. It has rust, and when you fire it it will blow up. Wondering why I'm sending that? You can't afford or handle anything else.

I'll get some crews to fix that up.

OOC: ... It's an ancient cannon that will fall apart when you touch it. I don't think you can fix that.

((OOC: Jesus Christ 101st, don't destroy any hope the newcomer, who, at least in this topic, is attempting to make an effort to roleplay, will stay and develop into a regular and good roleplayer. Sadly, I can't give any units due to my nation's military just being started today (see Isira's Foundation and Isira's Embassy Program), but I do note that Hittoria is making an effort to roleplay here, no matter how bad that might be in your eyes.))

Astholm will send its Naval unit out - the Kingsthorpe Regiment, and the Whitmuir Naval Regiment.

Over 400 men are on board.

thank you, you will be the first to supply.

Isira is right to be honest.

The Federation of Cukarica

15x Nora Self-propelled cannons

Gratefully yours,
Federation's Trade Bureau

To: The Government of Hittoria
From: Office of the Minister for Defense, Salzland

To Whom It May Concern,

Salzland has maintained for many years, albeit in a somewhat low-key manner, a relatively generous foreign military assistance program for states that maintain certain political, economic and military standards. Should we find that your nation meets these criteria, we would be able to contribute two (2) presently-retired U.S.S. Nimitz-class aircraft carriers for your nation's military. All sensitive materials would, of course, be removed from said vessels, along with said vessels' aircraft complements and weapons systems. In effect you would be acquiring the chasis, engines and RADAR systems, with your nation's own military providing the remaining weapons, aircraft, crew, etcetera.

Signed,

Ian Williams
Minister for Defense

(OOC: Basically, tell me a little about your country. Is it a democracy? Theocracy? Monarchy? Etcetera. Are you imperialistic? Capitalistic? This will impact what aid I send)

((OOC: Cheers mate. Want to start a roleplay soon? Telegram me if you want to.

I'd direct you towards the stickies at the top of the II page on information on how to improve roleplaying. They're long but afterwards you turn out ready to make Tom Clancy look like the ramblings of a five-year-old. If want advice, just telegram me or another player.))

you are amazing, weapon trade alliance

Ok, fine. I'll send 10 Gulf War Era Destroyers because everything else is either used for training, in a museum or in my military.

OOC: Destroyers? Even Gulf-war era destroyers are expensive to operate. Maybe corvettes; most likely patrol craft.
Alternatively, 1950s-tech destroyers would be manageable.

hmm, good point DC

Ok, fine. I'll send 10 Gulf War Era Destroyers because everything else is either used for training, in a museum or in my military.

OOC: Gulf War era? Most destroyers in service at the time are still in service today and have been since the early 80s.

I know. Thats all I got. But I'll send in 100 light gunships from the Gulf Era.

I know. Thats all I got. But I'll send in 100 light gunships from the Gulf Era.

OOC: That's not what I'm saying. There is no "Gulf War Era" all of the equipment used in the Gulf War is modern equipment.

And also, Hittoria when it comes to real life equipment and technology, you do not need to buy it from anyone. You can produce it yourself.

As a sign of good will, the Commonwealth freely sends five Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates, and charges the following price: $0.00.

OOC: I agree with Brogavia. BTW my military is upgraded alot. I'm like PMT +3 so I have alot of new equiptment.

I wouldn't say all of it, some got retired quite quickly after the 1st one(some US airforce craft) and some equipment hadn't been devopled/was very new(most precision bombs)

When talking about modern millitary equipment, modern is the last 30 years.

As a sign of good will, the Commonwealth freely sends five Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates, and charges the following price: $0.00.

OOC - You realize OHP-class frigates have operating costs of $16 million? In 1996 dollars? (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ship/ffg-7.htm)

Re: Artillery

We recommend you consider our MV-2313 mortar vehicles, each armed with an 82mm gun-mortar and 15 shells, which cost $460000 per unit. See our catalog (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14335970&postcount=6) for more details.

Re: Ships

We recommend you consider our PT-1 patrol craft, which cost just $5 million up-front and have low operating costs. See our catalog (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14335975&postcount=7) for more details and other, more expensive options.

Re: Investment opportunity

We would like to establish a torpedo factory in your nation. We would hire local architects and construction firms to design and build the factory, and would hire local managers. Labor contracts would meet your labor standards; we would provide housing and medical care for employees. Would this be permissible? Where would be most suitable for such a factory to be built?

All right all right! For the time being< this thread is closed!!!

OOC: You sure you want to close it just yet? I'm about to dump on you about 1 billion dollars worth of free equipment from the Universal Defense Storefront.

OOC - and the operating costs? Falkasia, I don't think that's as benevolent as it would seem.

OOC: Hey, you ever checked out my joint storefront (Daiwiz's copy/paste designs aside.)? You'd be surprised with the money we've made, lol. We've made so much, Daiwiz built a pyramid out of solid gold, lol. Not that that's what you're even asking, but whatever. Operating costs would be substantially low, when compared to the equipment's maintence/operational hour ratio, not to mention when put up against your designs. And yes, such a measurement does exist. Furthermore, the guy can just keep half the equipment reserved or deactivated in dusty bunkers until the end of time.

OOC: Jeez, I'll pay for it if it's only a few billion dollars. Or did everyone expect that I was going to just turn over two aircraft carriers to someone who couldn't afford them? Not all military aid is strictly material, after all, it could be cash too.

OOC: Salzland has quite a point DC.

OOC - That he does.

OOC: If you're interested I can give you a couple of surplus Governor class frigates (my clone of the Type 23 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_23_frigate)). If you'd like we can even set a seperate thread to RP a training exercise for the ships. However, as you haven't stated it in this thread, this offer is invalid if your nation is communist or fascist.

communist... WE AI'NT FRIGGIN CHINA XD! But yes, have them repaired and/ or troops trained aboard this type of vessel.

Watch yo mouth boy! Whats wrong with china?!?!

Oh my god! What did I just say! I'm sorry but everyone (except my family) says china is communist, I must pummel myself with my fists.

OOC: I thought China was communist.

OOC: I thought China was communist.

Basicly,it still is last time i checked.But they are currently ongoing mant reforms,and in Hong Cong they are even having a wide and broad capitalistic type economy.

okay, posting hours are from 800 hours, and 2000 hours.

Official notice: The Carbandian military would be willing to give you a half dozen (6) M-46 130mm artillery pieces, assuming you can arrange transport for them to a destination of your own choosing.

The guns are from our own military stockpiles, and while they have not been recently used, they should be in good shape.

OOC: 101, saying China is communist is no reason to jump all over him for. Please, stop trying to be larger than you actually are.

Truthfully, if you threw a Soviet into the same room with a Chinese Moaist, and locked it, one would have killed the other by the time you get the door open after hearing screams.

IC:
The People's Republic Of Hurtful Thoughts would like to present to you, a squadron of 24 Consolidated Patrol-Bombers as they are superior to coast-guns in terms of range and accuracy.

In addition, we shall provide one-hundred-thousand 120 mm mortars, five hundred thousand 82 mm 'automatic' Gun-mortars, and twenty-five-thousand towed 125 mm AT guns.

Oh, right, we've also taken the libertard of removing some 914 mm heavy mortars (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sc-wE6RdRVI) from refurbished APCs, they may be re-mounted onto vehicles or semi-fixed gun emplacements.
