This is an OOC signup thread for an illegal weapons auction hosted by the criminal organization Iron Fist. I'm looking for bidders, and would be willing to accept one undercover agent/LEO from a foreign power. The IC thread will be created in a day or 2, once enough people sign up. Any MT nation, terrorist group, or rogue group can sign up.

Currently signed up:

Ameriganastan
Cerska Corperation, North Defese
Third Spanish States
Gesford
The Battlehawk, agent
Daiwiz
Jakra
Madurastan
Ruthless Slaughter

Illegal by whose standards?

Illegal by whose standards?

At least 1 nuclear weapon will be involved. There's also going to be heavy weapons (.50 cal sniper rifles, automatic weapons, etc). Since nuclear weapons proliferation is usually monitored, and this auction won't be, many nations will consider it illegal (including the ASoGM).

OOC: sign me up.

Done.

Signs me up.

OOC: Will this have weapons that are normally not for sale by the nation of NS?

Like what?

OOC: Like fighters that ain't for sell by nations as to keep the tech to themselves. I think an example is the Kovas fighter, i haven't seen them for sale anywhere.

Iron Fist doesn't have anything considered proprietary (yet). That will probably be for next auction (assuming there is another auction, and assuming I can steal some).

BTW, this is an OOC thread, you don't need to keep putting OOC in front of your posts.

(OOC: Even nukes are legal in Third Spanish States, but very few have the reputation, technical expertise and financial resources to store them safely as demanded by the population.

Depending on price, there might be some off-chart purchases from some PMCs in the Confederacy)

So, are you signing up?

Alright, you're added to the first post.

Sign me up.

It's done.

Bump for more signups. And if anyone already signed up wants the agent position, they should claim it here. The actual thread will start tomorrow.

I'll happily be the agent, can he call in back up, like a special forces team?

Sure, you can be the agent. As to the Special Forces team, the ASoGM won't allow it (they didn't allow it last time), so if you're going to have them involved, it'd have to be off the official books. That, and I don't know if you'll be able to have them in place, due to how the auction is going to take place.

Great, Tomorrow Never dies, great

This could mean a HUUUGE scandal for Cerska.

I hope you dont ruin its reputation ;O

That wouldn't fit with Iron Fist's plans to keep these auctions up (as Iron Fist would lose a potential customer).

No I mean A Cerska Representative getting arrested by a Special Forces team for buying illegal weapons.

Ah, I see. Well, it might be a risk, but if the representative is careful, it should be a small risk.

Have you read the stickies already, and can you tell the difference between OOC comments and IC comments? I only ask because it's your first post.

No and i cant

No and i cant

Well then, I'm going to have to say no, until you read the stickies and can tell the difference between OOC and IC comments. Maybe next time.

What are stickies

They're the first few threads in the forum, each (I think) labeled "Sticky".

ok OCC is out of character and IC is in character

YA i just saw them thanks though

Happy Acres, I don't know if this is a good thread for you to get involved in. If you REALLY want to get involved, then I could allow it, but it might be better to wait until the next one.

The world would not approve of this....And so, I would like to send a representative so as to keep an eye on what tech is out there. Basically, wether it's better than that which is produced in Daiwiz...So, sign me up.

Sure.

Are you still taking people? I'd probably send an operative from the Intelligence Ministry, but I have a private corporate entity in mind that would want the nuke specifically for nefarious ends.

Is there actually going to be a place where we all meet up?

It's doubtful you'll see the other bidders, as the plan is to keep everone isolated for the auctioneers and bidders protection.

I'll allow you, but you'll be the last one.

ALright, I get it, I try to buy the nuke before someone else can, and then my government can dismantle it

Hopefully you've brought enough cash, then. :)

Ameriganastan, what's the problem with the auction? Why is it stupid? I've had a auction thread like this before, and didn't have a complaint on how I ran it.

Once everyone checks in on the IC thread, we can begin the auction.

Still waiting for Third Spanish States, Gesford, and Jakra before the auction can start.

I advise you to no wait for me, or you may have to wait for weeks. I am not consistent in posting frequency.
