The OU protests most strongly this attempt at the imposition of genetic slavery.Sea Skimmer wrote:For the amount you require, the cost would be considerable, your operating costs would be as well due to the need to raise the clones. However the same warrior clone might be created thousands of times required, and the need for slave trading with other star nations would be removed as the clones began to come of age.HemlockGrey wrote:What is the cost of this technology?The Kokand Empire could sell you the necessary cloning technology to forever remove your need to import slaves. However due to the need for them to age them would not be a short-term solution.

6 Refined armour-grade metals and ceramics.
No tariffs shall be initially levied, but tariffs may be levied as necessitated by the economic situation. Should they be levied, one Talora Prime month's warning will be provided in advance.

Fletchers: magnetic weapon which fires hypervelocity projectilers the size and shape of sewing needles, at an extremely high rate.

Floetchers have no recoil, and are excellent for both zero-g and high g combat. We have enough units to equip 1000 soldiers.
Jazzers: Magnetic weapons which fire sprays of miniture grenades, used largely for boarding actions. Available with both HEAP and HEAT rounds. Enough units to equip 250 troops.

You offer only 1500 units total? The Kokand Empire can supply custom built light weapons by the millions easily.

The Zarathrustran Navy is not a commercial organization, we are merely dealing with some excess equipment.You offer only 1500 units total? The Kokand Empire can supply custom built light weapons by the millions easily.
Additionally, Floater small arms are some of the finest zero-g usage weapons available. 1500 are enough to arm a batallion of marines up to the level of Floater space marines. Of course, you will have to provide your own pressure armour...

The actual game hasn't started yet so you shouldn't be claiming worlds that are not part of your starting declaration. This is just a time to conduct diplomacy.

And a battalion of troops is a pittance for a modern war. Acquiring so few weapons, which require an all-new maintenance and supply chain is simply an effective way to waste money.Thirdfain wrote:

Right now time could be considered stopped within the STGOD galaxy and where all conducting diplomacy to build up alliances and treaties. That basically simulates past history. Eventually Phongn will create a sort of master thread and time will begin moving. In that thread we all begin maneuvering our forces and engage in various activities.

-shrug- You don't have to buy them. The price is quite low, and ammunition for such weapons is easy to manufacture or aquire. They would be particularly useful to elite units, such as royal guards or space marines.And a battalion of troops is a pittance for a modern war.

We have contacted our three largest mercenary organizations, and have made available surplus military-grade equipment to them. They are very well respected among the soldier-for-hire community, and should serve your needs well. Their pay will help our economy when they return home and purchase goods and services. Thank you for contacting us.FBHthelizardmage wrote:Ground Mecenary forces if yyou please.Arthur_Tuxedo wrote: Mercenary ground forces or mercenary naval forces? We can supply either in great abundance.
We suggest you bring close terrain fighting equipment and NBC warfare suits.
