Official Press Release
Republic of the Battlehawk

The Republic of the Battlehawk Space Command, confirms that our Astronaughts have landed on the moon. As Part of the Larger Project indigo the moon landing represents stage one. Thank you, I'll now open up to questions

((OOC: Can I RP my top-secret "Iron Sky" program in here? It's a program the GWO started to put modified ICBM silos on the moon, as well as see if life on the moon in artificial environments is possible. Of course, everything is still in-progress and experimental, even though we already have people on the moon.))

OOC: if you like, Project Indigo is to establish a Battlehawk colony/base on the moon, first stage was a landing

A Lynion reporter for the Lynx Radio Network News raise's his hand.

"Sir, this landing on the moon," he started. "Is there anything major to happen? I mean, we all seen several nations land on the moon. Is the project meant to be focused on...maybe a colony or base of some kind?" he asked.

To: BattleHawk Goverment
From: 101st Space Ministry

We would like to congratulate you on your successes. We would like to tell you that we have a space station near your landing site and we are willing to assist you with supplies and men. Also we would like to ask you to assist us and allow us the build a military base near your colony to protect it, it would house both 101st and Battlehawk troops.

Richard Trevor
Space Minister

General Tony Hammond turned to the reported
"Without revealing too much detail, yes Project Indigo's intention is to get a Colony on the moon for Scientific purposes, although there may be a small MIlitary garriosn" Hammon replied

ooc: Am I aloud to send my shuttles in with supplies and stuff yet?

OFFICIAL MESSAGE
FROM: ROTB SPACE COMMAND[/B}
[B]TO: 101st Space Ministary

We appreaciate both your thanks and your offer, as for building base near our colony, that would be more than acceptable, we'll need to meet to discuss this.

"I know this will sound like a stupid question," started the reporter. "But why are you sending a military garrison onto the moon? Is this to maintain security or is it just to be for something else?" he asked.

OOC: Theres no Colony yet, just a landing but we can meet to discuss it

"I know this will sound like a stupid question," started the reporter. "But why are you sending a military garrison onto the moon? Is this to maintain security or is it just to be for something else?" he asked.

ooc: I'm not sure if this is directed to me... If it is then:

IC:

Mostly for security, protection from other nations, or space raiders when technology is efficient enough. But space is a lot safer if you want to test new bombs or mines. Away from the colony of course.

RE: Purposal

We have heard you have started to deploy a space colony on the moon. We congulate you on your success on getting this far. We encourage your organisation to go further but I would also like to put forward a purposal. The Vamperial Kingdom has always had an interest in space and recently we've being deploying sicene teams to drill into the astriods in the astriod fields in search of minerals that might be out there. I would like to request to come to some kind of an agreement about a possible re-fueling station on the moon. We would pay a good fee for this.


OOC: 101st, that was directed at Battlehawk.

"It's to maintain security" Hammon replied "It's main purpose will be as said, Security issues but also Defense of teh Colony should it ever need defending"

A Re-fueling station on Luna would benifit us both, and as such I'm sure an Agreement can be reached

RE: Purposal

The re-fuelling station will benifit us both. It'll take the strain off our space stations for the re-fuelling purposes and it'll give you a payment so it's a win-win situation for everyone.

Of course, Re-fueling station will be high on the construction agenda
