Tamurin Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 Greetings from the History Department of the ministry of science. Tamurin is about to open the museum for the military technology of yesterday and the days before and we would like to see our european friends join this project. Our countries' military is equipped with modern weapons and technology. The downside of this achievement is that many weapons, aircrafts, ships etc. are obsolete and just standing around, waiting to be deconstructed, melted or slowly rust and rot. We want to change that. What began as a project of aircraft-enthusiasts, now becomes a national project - and with the help of our european friends an international project! Are you also tired of dumping your old tanks? To see your old ships rust in the harbor? To watch your old aircraft, once the "lord of the sky", standing on the ground and just rot? Sell them to us or borrow them to us! We will maintain them, keep them in "perfect health" and use them as tourist attractions. Air shows, replay of old battles and maneuvers and ride-alongs for visitors! We will pay you a reasonable price - in credits or, if you prefer, in a bonus: Tourists from your country only pay half-price. So far, our museum will be equipped with old Tamurin military assets: Aircrafts: P-51 Mustangs, P-47 Thunderbolt, Fokker Dreidecker, F-86 Sabres, F-84 Thunderjets, F-100 Super Sabre, F-104 Starfighter, the british Vulcan bomber and some others. P-51's with original US-markings; this group now "serves" in the Tamurin Museum of Military Technology and will "fight" other museum aircraft Army Equipment: Several main battle tanks from 1935 to 1975; trucks from 1905 to 1967; assault rifles from 1892 to 1977; and many more things. The K-5a, the so-called "Civil War Rifle", was used in the Tamurin Civil War from 1903-1911. It was used until 1942. Navy Equipment: Several small support vessels, two destroyers, one cruiser, two old submarines and one small aircraft carrier. The biggest asset is the "Shining Arrabar", one of the last big battleships of Tamurin. At the moment we're working on an old aircraft carrier and two big submarines; they should be ready to be visited in spring 2005. The "Shining Arrabar", once the pride of the Navy The Museum is in Hlath, 80 km south of the E.C.A.-harbor Hlondeth. It will open on december 6th, 2004. Guests from our european neighbours are more than welcome to visit. One of the spectacular scenes of the air show - a dogfight between biplanes and a Fokker Dreidecker. Although it might seem very dangerous, the fire, the bombs and the guns aren't lethal; these are all special effects. If you are concerned about the safety, you are welcome to contact us. We have a safety certificate from the ministry of defense, the ministry of internal affairs and the ministry of consumers and we'll be happy to show you how things are done here. If you consider selling assets to us, please contact the Tamurin embassy. We understand that you cannot sell or borrow modern military technology to us. We also don't want to show the world the most advanced technology Tamurin has. To avoid this, the museum will only show assets and technology which is at least 25 years old. And nothing that is a quarter of a century old is any concern to the national security if displayed in public, right?
Cheesefish Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 hmm, inferior your weapons be. where are the lasers?
Senator Gaius Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 Where are the N-Space compressed Antimatter missiles?
Tamurin Posted January 26, 2005 Author Posted January 26, 2005 Well, if you would read the headline... "Museum", "History department"...this is a museum for old technology...
Senator Gaius Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 Can you sell that in bulk? Weapons are nice.
Tagmatium Rules Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 We're willing to flog...er, I mean sell our stockpile of old weapons, namely a selection of fire/flintlock muskets from the 3rd War of Imperial Succesion, nearly 200 years ago. @Senator Gaius: Do you want any of these? We can sell in bulk, and they are nice.
Tamurin Posted February 2, 2005 Author Posted February 2, 2005 @Tagmatium: Very nice. This would make a fine addition to our musket-collection.
Senator Gaius Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 We would be interested in such a deal...we are starting up our own military museum in Artois, and these weapons are rare in Burgundy-Brabant, due to the Army destroying all antiquated weapons. Can we come to some sort of deal?
Tagmatium Rules Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 We have enough weapons from this period, including swords, cavalry carbines and Baker rifles stockpliled to supply both of your museums, as well as keeping some in the Holy Imperial War Museum in Tagmatium, if this is what would suit the both of you best.
Orioni Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 Silent and deadly: the crossbow. Our infantry used to work with these a long time ago. These days they are only used for sport, although our snipers have to be able to use them as well.
Tamurin Posted February 3, 2005 Author Posted February 3, 2005 The History Department would gladly purchase some of the weapons offered by Tagmatium and Orioni. They will get a special place in our collection.
Niederoestereich Posted February 3, 2005 Posted February 3, 2005 To: Tamurin Museum of Military TEchnology From: Niederoestereichian Warbirds Associated Subject: Rare Warbirds We have noticed that you display a large stockpile of various military equipment from different time periods, therefore we wish to offer the people of Tamurin, the oppitunity to see two of Niederoestereichian fine warbirds from a era once gone. For a limit period, we wish to offer the CAC Boomerang and the CAC Wirraway for a vist. They are both airworthy and if the museum has an airstrip, conduct airshows 3 times a week, and rides in the Wirraway. CAC Wirraway CAC Boomerang
Tamurin Posted February 3, 2005 Author Posted February 3, 2005 TO: Niederoestereichian Warbirds Associated FROM: Tamurin Museum of Military Technology RE: CAC Boomerang and CAC Wirraway We would be very glad to have such fine and airworthy aircrafts in our collection, even it would be just for a short while. We appreciate this kind of cultural cooperation between our nations and hope that it will continue.
Orioni Posted February 3, 2005 Posted February 3, 2005 The Orioni craftsmen of ancient arms have decided to donate 25 splendidly finished crossbows to the Tamurin Museum of Military Technology.
Tamurin Posted February 3, 2005 Author Posted February 3, 2005 On behalf of the History Department, I thank you for your gracious donation.
Senator Gaius Posted February 3, 2005 Posted February 3, 2005 The Most Serene Republic would be happy to donate or purchase any of your weapons <sweet antique weapons>
Tamurin Posted February 12, 2005 Author Posted February 12, 2005 A nice piece of weaponry. Are you interested in borrowing it to us?
Haken Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 (edited) Yeah sure. We don't use it anymore and we have tons laying around. Our weapons are much more advanced now... they have iron pikes now. Were most nations use knifes for close combat, we use these. They're more "convincing". Edited February 12, 2005 by Haken (see edit history)
Senator Gaius Posted February 14, 2005 Posted February 14, 2005 We like the look of the clubs. We use pikes ourselves....with guns attached.
