As one of the Elders of the Black Dragon Society, i state that we would accept your noble gifts, if your proposition would pass, KNF Uyeshiba. I can also asure you that these ships would be used in our common goal, defending Kusari space from the Blood Dragons, Golden Chrysanthemum, and finaly, Bretonia Armed Forces, and even helping supress them.

.To KNF Uyeshiba Shomen.
Hail friend and fellow countryman. It is good to see that the Kusari Naval Forces understand that the Hogosha only have the best interests of our homeland in mind. We would graciously and humbly accept this wonderful gift if it were to be aproved by the KNF high command. We would most deffinately put them to good use to help rid us both of the Blood Dragons and the GC. They are an increasing nuisance within the borders of our great Nation. I only ask what would you need for us to provide in return? Your offer excites me as well as my fellow brothers. I await to hear your response.
Hikaru Sulu is silently watching the project from its start and, as he already said on private frequencies, he find this a great idea and willing to cooperate.
He also find Uyeshiba proposal very interesting and will soon submit it at the High Command.
OOC: We really need to get our message dump set up as that is where is should be...
We will not use any of these ships in any kind of smuggling or other non legal manner. These ships are provided to help the KNF in defending Kusari, and that is the only purpose they will be used for. Any "non legal" actions will be carried out in other ships.
IC: As Kumicho of the Black Dragon Society, I welcome your gift of Kusari military ships and will swear to use them in defense of our great nation.
You have our word that we will not abuse this great gift, nor shall we bring shame to you by using them in any manner other than intended.
As a sign of cooperation please accept this gift from KNF.

EDIT: Added some thoughs
The Hogosha and KNF might share some same obcjetives but we must not forget what they really are, or at least, what they seems to me based on informations I have and its structure type: mafia, or yakuza if you'd prefer.
Kusari Government and KNF will not openly support a society like this, not in a public way.
They have key persons in high places of Kusari Government, their influence might grant them some Kusari type military ships (as the ships above, might include a destroyer in a near future), and the ability to get through "unseen".
I in your place would stick with Civillian ships (hogosha guards are flying an Eagle, I've also heard about a new Eagle bomber in next version) with some kusari/corsair weaponry, looking more to the corsair front to get cap ships (in a very limited number).

OOC: This is half true (sorry for my bad english if it is. :D) as I read the description of Hogosha in the topic forepart.
In the public eye, Hogosha is not a criminal organisation. If we make a comparison, the blood dragons are the yakuza more. Hogosha has illegal activities, but not in the public eye and most of these activities are originate from of military and government.
And in wartime an organization like this is just help the military to keep the order in Kusari. So if the KNF would openly support the greatest and most honourable Hogosha clan, it would seem in the public eye, that there are some new attack wing of Kusari to make deadly strikes of its enemies.
Hogosha recognize the emperor as their dominator also, they has many high ranked personal in military and government, they are a natural part of kusari (as the description said). They only do illegal things in the background, beyond public eye, and mostly as a commission from military or government, like political purge, espionage, weapon smuggling against opposing forces attacking the opposed criminal organizations like blood dragons, independent pirates (those who use gunboats, there are some...) Maybe in wartime they could raid bretonnian traders and strike smaller military units also in bretonnian (!) territory (as we only able to raid Tau systems).
What is the standpoint of black dragons? they imagined this way of their standing?
I hope I didnt write immense follies.... :crazy:
Good playtime for everyone!

No, you didn't, I half agree on what you said but have to say Blood Dragons are willing to overthrow actual Kusari Government while Black Dragons not.
In my opinion, as a covert organisation the Black Dragon should not be too visible as an open military force, I think the High Command decision fits the case, at the moment.
That is a great and generous offering of the KNF High Command. I am grateful towards my superiors, that they considered my humble proposal and gave an approving answer.
So Black Dragons, you will be able to use our great and agile fighters, two gunboats, and kusari weaponry.
After all, you received an opportunity to fly two of our glorious very new bomber our latest development, that will be ready to use soon.
You will be able to use these military ships against enemies of Kusari, and in defending Kusari systems against outer influences.
Long life to our great Emperor!

I am in the process of creating our casino ship right now. I was actually wondering if anyone had any ideas for names.
I was thinking of keeping it simple with something like "The Lucky Dragon Casino". The name needs to be something simple and in English so that all players can tell what it is and what it's purpose is. Any thoughts?
The casino will be on a Luxury Liner and will be stationed primarily in New Tokyo. It will at times make trips to tourist locations for special gambling cruises.
The first lottery will start at 1 million credits per ticket and will have a grand prize of 20 million credits. The lottery will last for 1 week finishing on Sundays, so when it is started - buy your tickets quickly!
A thread will be started where I will list the ticket numbers that everyone purchased so there can be no cheating and no corruption. The winning numbers will be taken from this website.
You must pick 4 numbers between 0 and 9 in the correct order to win. If you get 3 numbers correct in the right order you will win a prize of 5 million credits. All players will be allowed to purchase as many tickets as you would like and you may purchase them by pm'ing the casino ship in game or by posting in the thread. If you post them in the thread they will be copied into my list of purchased tickets at the top of the thread to prevent people from changing their numbers once purchased.
If anyone has any ideas for the name of the casino or any questions/suggestions about the process, please let your voice be heard!
