Cher monsieur L,

Owing to your good reputation, previous dealings with elements of the Marine Royale and long-standing service to the Crown, we have determined no reason that would preclude you from obtaining the armaments you requested. The 410th Army is now entitled to make use of one Lynx-class fighter. It has been decided that the Kingdom would cover the fees relating to ship delivery, retroffiting and eventual maintenance, due to the 410th Army's good standing with the Crown.

According to our registry, your association is Gallic in origin, and therefore does not need to request permission to use armaments from Category A. Still, your diligence is much appreciated. The Crown knows that you will make good use of the requested craft and will continue to keep a benevolent eye on the Army's achievements.

Please accept the expression of our sincere salutations.

Transmission Begins

- Name and affiliation : EFL Oil & Machinery; Gallic Corporation
- Category of the request : C
- Type of request : both
- What exactly do you want ? Two: Perilous-class corvettes| Multiple: Caracal-class light fighters / Serval-class heavy fighters / Taureau-class armored transports / Lynx-class very heavy fighters
- Why do you want them and how will you use them ? For escort purposes, our work of supplying the front lines is proving to be ever more dangerous with the rise of Bretonian and Libertonian threats on all sides in addition to Sirian pirates who refuse to acknowledge our superiority. The fuel that is the life blood of our fleets must get from Gallia to the front lines and the distance is ever growing. Unfortunately, that means the trip is becoming more and more dangerous by the day.

Together, we can build a Stronger, Faster, Gallia™

Bonjour,

EFL has, time and again, demonstrated full commitment to the Crown and has been instrumental in its righteous battle against injustice. We are well aware of the risks your pilots take on a daily basis, venturing right at the frontlines to bridge the way for our conquest : this work is as dangerous as it is essential. It is only natural that we ACCEPT your request and hope that you won't need to make an extensive use of these armaments. Maintenance and eventual replacement will naturally be handled free of charge.

Please accept the expression of our sincere salutations and apologies for the lateness of this reply.

Monsieur Holt,

The Royaume has, thus far, not heard of your association in particularly negative terms. While we are not accustomed to exporting our exceptional technology to unknown border-worlds-dwelling peasantry, your request certainly isn't extravagant and Pliers being seen removing ruffians with remarkable rapidity is not an unappealing thought. The Ministère has henceforth decided to tentatively ACCEPT your request, as a first step in the cooperation between Gallia and the League of Einstenian Transistors. Here are our terms.

The League will wire the sum of 100 million standard credits to MRG|Banque which will cover the following ;

- Construction and delivery of five (5) Plier heavy spacecraft,
- Delivery of an A1 Short stay visa in Gallia in the name of the League plus access to a designated shipyard to take possession of the aforementioned vessels. The visa will become active on the day of payment by the League. This will allow agents of the League to personally take possession of the Pliers in complete legality and without having the Roi's wrath wrought unto them.
- Maintenance services, including spare parts manufacture and delivery, refitting and replacement,
- Basic training to operate the crafts,
- Regularly scheduled supply of Oil according to the League's needs. Extra Oil may be purchased at a preferential cost (NOTE : the DGA will NOT be held responsible of any damage, temporary or permanent, sustained to either the ship or its pilot if the Pliers' engines are modified to accept anything other than pure Gallic space gasoil)
- A liability fee for first-time dealing with a previously uncontacted group,
- Delivery of five (5) CERTIFICATES OF AUTHENTICITY, guaranteeing that 100% of the ships' hulls, systems and livery were designed, built and assembled in Gallia. ROYAL STAMP INCLUDED !
- 6 months warranty : in case of unsatisfactory performance, the ships may be returned within six months and half the funds will be returned to the League, along with EXTREME SCORN from the entire Gallic shipbuilding industry for not showing the necessary flair to appreciate its blatantly superior services and products.

Do you agree to these terms ?
