Imperial Military Industries

[Tarsas]

The Emperor has officially authorized the IMI to sell arms to the world.

IMI was first conceived by Emperor William XIV during the Golden Age of the Empire. He recruited groups of engineers, designers, businessmen, architects, and workers. After this work force of over forty thousand men was assembled, he appointed Count Aren Marques as the head of IMI. The forty thousand laborers built a large tower in the middle of the Old Tarisan District and it was christened "Arsenal Tower". The tower had sixteen floors, an enormous feat back then and was considered a wonder of the pre modern world. The tower still serves as the central headquarters for IMI and contains the main design labs.

Today, IMI spans twenty massive factories, twenty design labs, and employs massive amounts of people. It's chief tasks are to design arms for the Empire and to supervise arms exports. The Emperor has officially set up the Imperial Arms Exports Offices. The IAEO can offer these arms to you at cheaper prices through advanced manufacturing technologies and new reforms that save money.

Rules

.
1. Make sure your economy can handle the purchase on NS tracker
2. Payment plans are available

Partner/Contributer Company Program

IMI has an extensive partner program. We are willing to feed some designs to partner companies, but we prefer contributers. Contributers are any person that contributes designs to our company. Terms are negotiated on a case by case basis.

Partners

Royal Britannian Arms Manufacturing Co.

Production Rights

IMI offers licenses to nations to produce certain designs. Prices are negotiated on a case by case basis. The licenses do not expire, but a nation who has both a license cannot issue the design to other nations. Breaking this term will result in IMI refusing business to the offender and immediate reporting to an appropriate authority.

All designs have been edited in draftroom and received commentary from other designers.

[OOC: The number one rule when creating a storefront is that you don't make the customers do the math for you. Not only is this unrealistic and unnecessary, but the fact that other players are even buying from you should be enough motivation to simply pop out your calculator.]

OOC: Some of the best arms fronts here like Lyran Arms require you to do your own math...and it's not a big issue to most people.

[OOC: It would push me, and many others away. And really? The costumers are taking their time to post, just do a little simple multiplication.]

OOC: I justify that by saying I spend hours on these designs I sell..and that should be plenty...since these are top of the line and well done...not many players take the time to address all the details of the vehicle and they usually write a vague description..plus these are draftroom approved

[OOC: This design took me 20 minutes. I fail to see your reasoning.]

OCC: I had to spend hours researching properly. My technology is modern, and to get every aspect right requires research.

OOC: Well, that's really cool for you. You made a writeup for a picture you didn't (my guess) draw yourself. It's a really cool writeup. MT designs do require more effort because MT players fact-check more. Frankly, it's been traditional in storefronts since time immemorial to request that players do their own math.

IMI would like to announce the imminent release of a new design for sale to the public. To be released soon!

OOC: iirc there's no such thing as Draftroom-approved

OOC: Making coustumer do there own math, will be some thing like tesco or sansburry asking you to do your own math when you are checking out. They are buying from you, you are getting money means that you need to do the hard bit.

[Tarsas]

OOC: Tell that to all the other arms storefronts that require you to do your own math.

[Crookfur]

OOC: my apologies for adding to the derailing.

As the person largely responsible for the current you/the customer doing the "math" debate I would like to point out that I merely suggested that you do the math for a customer as part of an idealised "best practice" code. There is now rule on this matter and the "do your own math!" isn't universal to military storefront and never has been (it may have appeared so at a certain point of jolt when many of the longer running storefronts had become inactive).

Personally as a cusotmer I find the "do your own math" requirement/demand to be off putting as it appears lazy, arrogant and not great cusotmer service but that is just me.

[Tarsas]

OOC: FINE damn it I'll do the math. :@

[Bendira]

ooc- Lol at collective systems trolling new storefronts

[Tarsas]

IMI has officially released it's catalog!

OOC: If it makes people feel better (including Tarsas) I"LL do the math for all purchases, seeing as how my designs are now apart of this storefront.

Now someone buy something.

TO:The Government of Tsaras

As a response to the outbreak of recent hostilities in the shape of the May Day War , the Government of Hardenburgh has increased the Naval budget in recognition of the fact that a wartime fleet needs by far greater operational capabilities. The Naval Department , has been looking for a new type of cruiser with enhanced anti-ship capabilities and has come to the conclusion that the Slava II Type Cruiser will provide the Hardenburghian navy with these essential capabilities. The Naval Department of Hardenburgh would hereby like to place an order down for twenty units with a view , possibly in the near future to increase this by ten more
