Mokastana: Then Lyras happened.
Allanea: Wanting to avoid fighting Lyras' fuck-huge military is also a reasonable IC consideration
TPF: Who is stupid enough to attack a Lyran convoy?
Sumer: Honestly, I'd rather face Doom's military with Doom having a 3-1 advantage over me, than take a 1-1 fight with a well-supplied Lyran tank unit.
Kinsgard: RL Lyras is like a real life video game character.
Ieperithem: Eighty four. Eighty four percent of their terrifyingly massive GDP goes directly into their military. And they actually know how to manage it. It's safe to say there isn't a single nation that could feasibly stand against them if they wanted it to die.
Yikes. Just... Yikes.

Any of that, as per your determination about which is best, would work, as would any rendition you care to provide of any person or persons within Lyras. Warmarshal Krell (if you can dig up enough on him ), Colonel Krell, Order-Marshal Lambert, etc, are all persons that would possibly be in contact with your personnel, and they'd fit in with any imagery you care to provide quite nicely.
Cheers for the creative thought.

OOC: I was a bit overconfident; still stuck on the jacket. I started off with the drawing, only to realize halfway through that they looked suspiciously like a Mayaqooi Airborne soldier with no camo. So I'm currently redoing it with a white jacket w/hood etc. You will like it, I guarantee that.
And I see the weaponry. Thanks.

OOC: No worries on the timing, it's all cool. I haven't seen it, but like it already. The thought and sentiment are very much appreciated. The story at the bottom of that linked page may help with some thoughts as well, and provide hints on characterisation that may come through. Or may not. But hey.

OOCly it's more a question of WHEN, than of IF) they show their colours well in regular conflict (such as the interminable skirmishing along the Lyro-Fehnmari border) then they will be used for more... delicate... matters. As per Lyran SF, actually. Hence the references above, as it happens.
The method in the madness comes to light *chuckle*.

FROM: Lyran Governmental Trade Department
RE: Multiple item DPR Request
You have our deepest apologies for our error. We had looked up the wrong nation for your clearance codes and authorisation and have found that you do indeed have an exemption allowing you access to the –C variants of the LY908. As such, that purchase, for 3,000 of them, is accepted, at the stated price of NS$330bn.
Your ensuing purchase order, for;
10,000,000 Helios II ATGMs-$1.05568 Trillion
50,000 Warshroud Nettings
2 TRA-92 Eiko Attack Helicopters
5,000,000 LDPU Sets
is also accepted, at a price of NS$1055.68bn. A convoy will sail before the week is out, for direct delivery to your ports.
Further, Lyran orbital reconnaissance has determined that you have mothballed one of your Longsword-class ships. Given our projections and estimates, we ascribe this as likely due to lack of funds for maintenance.
We think it is a tremendous shame to be unable to utilise such a vessel, and thus make NS$100bn hereby available to you, so as to put it afloat, armed, and flying the Pennsylvanian ensign, once more.
Regards
General Aleksandr
