To Whom It May Concern,

The Porcuian government and military would like to express its interest in the purchase of high grade military equipment to outfit the Duce's personal guard, the Phrygian Guard. Naturally, we request suitable demonstrations of available equipment to determine compatibility, reliability, and firepower. Should such demonstrations meet favorably to a Porcuian delegation the purchase of Bauer & Kurz equipment is assured and a full transaction can be made.

OOC: *Ahem* Not that I have anything wrong with this AHI, but I can't help but chime in on the .50 BMG part. Some cartridges related to the BMG can achieve velocities and energies slightly higher than yours advertises. Might want to crank yours up a bit to compensate for this inconsistency.

Personally I wouldn't have even noticed, until I seen the Gatling gun and was double checking you weren't actually advocating it as a shoulder fired weapon. :lol:

OOC: Yeah, one loading does. It's a shame the Soviet cartridges (other than the 7.62) were never optimized. Maybe I'll give it a bit more punch.

And yeah, that HMG is decidedly not shoulder-fired. :P

General Mangakis,

B&K would be pleased to provide a demonstration of our technology for the Phrygian Guard. We would welcome representatives of the Guard to our main design complex in the Lambda League, and can provide transportation if you desire, or be available to conduct the proofing at a Porcuian location of your choosing. B&K is confident that our products can not only meet, but surpass the needs of the Guard, and we look forward to our business.

Sincerely,
Mr. Wolfgang Bauer

The Honorable Bauer, Wolfgang & Kurz, Leonhard,

Upon a very impressive demonstration and a thorough review by the attending officers it is my pleasure to declare that the government of Porcu is set to conclude our business with a substantial purchase. A suitable number of Bauer Model 7 Pistols, B&K Model 80 Personal Defense Weapons, and B&K Model 101 Advanced Assault Rifles wished to be purchased, properly equipping a current 100,000 man force. The necessary monetary transaction shall be made through the Bank of Porcu and deposited in any account desirable by you.

Again, I wish to convey the highest approval of the Phrygian Guard with your business gentlemen.

This message was delivered to B&K offices from the desk of the pirate captain William Priestley better known by his nom de guerre "The Serrated Bonesaw." The Bonesaw was himself based in a Lambda League pirate den, so he simply sent a messenger to the B&K headquarters.

*****

Mr. Bauer, Mr. Kurz,

I would like to hire a B&K consultant to modernize and equip my 3,000 marine infantry and 5,000 sailors with B&K hardware. If you accept the commission, my purchaser, Christopher Eakins, Esq., will meet your consultant to discuss the logistics. I regret that I cannot be present personally, as I am currently away on business.

Any payments made to B&K will be in gold Krugerrands and will be delivered from my vault-ship "CSS Pluton", which can often be seen on the coast of the Lambda League.

Sincerely,

Adm. Wm. Priestley,
Known As The Serrated Bonesaw

OOC: It's a courier. I can change it to Eakins himself if necessary.
OOC: I've no preference either way, just wanted to check.

IC:
The receptionist at the desk in browsed the messenger's letter as the courier glanced briefly around the modern-looking penthouse lobby. She picked up the phone on the desk. "Mr. Kurz, I have the representative of an Admiral William Priestley here." The voice on the other end said something unintelligible, and she hung up the phone, handing the paper back to the courier. "Mr. Bauer apologizes that he is away on business at the present time, but Mr. Kurz will see you now," she said, gesturing at the door to the right.

Inside, the office was atypical for a corporate executive. About a dozen unrecognizable firearms of varying sizes were scattered around the room, all in some stage of being dismantled or reassembled. What shelf and desk space wasn't taken up by weapons was stacked high with schematics, all apparently concepts for future designs. Behind the desk, a brown-haired, bearded man in his early forties finished outting a pistol back together, then set it aside. "Ah, the messenger, come in!" Stepping into the room, the Bonesaw's representative noticed a large, muscular man in a suit standing next to he door. More importantly, he noticed the loaded submachine gun in the guard's hands.

"Sit down, please," said Kurz, motioning to a chair across the desk from him. The messenger shook his head, eying the guard. "Don't worry about Clint there, Wolfgang makes me keep him around. Always been a bit paranoid." The messenger nodded, but remained standing. "What can I do for you?" asked Kurz, and the courier presented the letter, which Kurz quickly skimmed. "Hm, shouldn't be a problem," he mused. "There's a stack of my cards outside on Veronica's desk. Give one to your Mr. Eakins, have him get in touch with me to set up a meeting. Can't have an Admiral of the Lambda League dealing with some no-name middleman, eh?"

The courier nodded again. "And-"

Kurz cut him off, "As for the finances, I'll have Mr. Bauer come up with an estimate. He's the accountant, not me. I'm sure your gold will be perfectly acceptable payment when the contract is complete."

"Thank you for your time." The messenger shook Kurz's extended hand, then left the room.

From the desk of Mr. Wolfgang Bauer:
 
Mr. Krantz,

The items you requessted have been shipped via United Express. Am I correct in assuming that your request for "every product" that we manufacture does not apply to our 57 mm cannon?

From the desk of Mr. Robert Guilliman
 
Minister Toma,

I regret to inform you that B&K is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allied Holdings International and that, at the present time, we are not prepared to make any shares of the company publicly available. However, I would like to personally thank you for your interest in B&K, and assure you that you will be among the first informed if and when B&K stock is made available.

Christopher Eakins, Esq., was a tall, gaunt, middle-aged British man dressed in a 3 piece, pinstriped suit. He came to the B&K building with his assistant, a negro with shiny brown skin who was carrying a suitcase of necessary documents. The negro was broad shouldered and dressed in a blue suit and black tie. He was mute.

They were escorted to their meeting with Kurz, who poured Scotch on the rocks even though it was not yet 10 in the morning. Downing his liquor, Eakins spoke in his London accent. "As you know, Admiral Priestley wishes to refit his troops with the latest small arms technology. However the Admiral does not possess the time, patience, or simply the know-how to undertake this task internally. This is why he is interested in hiring an outside consultant from B&K."

Eakins removed documents from his negro assistant's suitcase, and handed the documents to Kurz. "These documents outline our preliminary needs and specifications, in addition to payment arrangements. Basically, the Admiral needs to equip his men with weapons that will be effective in the upcoming campaign."

Memo from the Hemington Weapons Corporation
CSA

To whom is may consider of Bauer & Kurz Manufacturing,

Having a long standing tradition of producing the finest in weapons technologies in the western hemisphere we of Hemington Weapons would like to investigate the possibility of licensing agreements with Bauer & Kurtz Manufacturing for the production of the Company's said products to our clients here in the Americas. Such an agreement would of course be profitable for both parties involved as the Americas, especially South America, has a long history of rebellion and guerrilla warfare. Top that with the possibility of long standing wars with the Dominion who currently occupies much of South America and you get a market which is almost guaranteed to have exponential longevity.

Donald Hemington

OOC: Kas, the 57 mm is a 14-ton artillery piece mounted quite permanently to whatever ship or plane it serves on. It would be easier to hijack the vessel than steal the gun.

IC:
Kurz drank his own scotch slowly, offering the bottle to Eakins again, as he glanced over the papers. "Well, if you're looking for effective, you've come to the right people. And when it comes to things that shoot, we've either got it or we can make it, so this'll be no problem." He took another sip from the crystal tumbler. "Judging by the volume of orders we've had recently, the world is about to go straight to hell, so I'll make sure to put a rush on this for you. We've got enough pistols in stock to ship immediately, the rest should come off the line in a week, tops." He finished the last of his scotch, ice clinking against the glass as it shifted, and smiled contentedly.

From the desk of Mr. Wolfgang Bauer
 
Mr. Hemington,

I would like to personally thank you for your inerest in B&K, and to express Mr. Kurz's and my enthusiasm for doing business with your renowned company. The Americas are, indeed, a large untapped market for B&K, and we will be pleased to have representation in the West. I would like to propose a straighforward licensing agreement for all of our small arms, and the Z3 machine gun, with a very reasonable 6% royalty rate. If this is satisfactory, I can have the legal documents drawn up in short order for your review.
