Category 1: Mercurial

"Fleet of foot and sharp of mind..."

Mercurial Personnel form the reactionary core of the TS security team. At any time, and at a moment's notice, the Mercurial security specialists are able to respond and contain any threat until Martial or Heraclean forces can arrive.

Armed with a 30 round, 9x19-mm Hurricane TMP-18 and the Zenith 10-mm automatic pistol, these forces are able to adequately respond to any situation with maximum stealth and precision, as well as with minimal collateral damage. Usually, due to their lack of heavy armor, Mercs are used in low-risk security and policing jobs, as well as as Rapid Deployment Personnel.

Mercurial armor, while light, is by no means useless. Its patented Polygonal Acute Force Dissipation (PAFD) design effectively distributes the force from long range or small caliber rounds across the entire torso. This protects the wearer from damage in everyday combat situations, and minimizes the pushback effect of a bullet. This allows Mercs to continue to react, even as they are taking small-arms fire.

While not usually deployed in front-line combat, Mercs make excellent light-infantry support teams, with highly trained Mercurial snipers providing a precise, stealthy alternative to brute military force. Excelling in high-risk, high-reward situations, these snipers were recently praised by police and counter terrorist organizations the world over for their role in the resolution of the Sepoy Crisis, where a team of snipers took out over thirty former-military rebel terrorists over the course of twenty minutes and saved numerous innocent lives.

In short, if it's precise, fast-response security personnel you require, Mercurial troopers will provide the perfect light infantry to handle any situation.

Mercurial Packages:
Standard Security Package:

This package is ideal for low risk, security type situations, where the client wishes to keep a small area (in a city, or embassy, etc.) safe and impenetrable. This package comes with 20 Mercurial troopers and 5 Panhard CRABs.
Up-front fee of 500,000₯/ Team of 20
Maintenance Fee of 10,000₯/ month/ Team of 20
Notice: Extra fees may be applicable depending on the risk factor of your desired operation.

Up-front fee of 1,050,000₯/ Team of 25
Maintenance Fee of 70,000₯/ month/ Team of 25
Notice: Extra fees may be applicable depending on the risk factor of your desired operation.

High Precision Personnel Package:

This package is intended for use in any and all situations that require high-precision, maximum training paramilitary snipers. The package comes with 5 Snipers and a support team of 10 Mercurial Troopers, as well as 4 Panhard CRABs.
Up-front fee of 1,200,000₯/ Team of 15
Maintenance Fee of 60,000₯/ month/ Team of 15
Notice: Extra fees may be applicable depending on the risk factor of your desired operation.

Category 2: Martial

"Honor and glory in battle..."

Martial Security Personnel form the combat backbone of any modern security force. With their battle-ready armor and equally battle-ready temperament, Martial Security forces can assess and handle any and all heavy combat situations with extreme prejudice and similarly extreme devotion to their objective.

Armed with a variety of weapons, the average Martial carries with him a .303 FR-27 Sanction Flechette Rifle as well as a standard issue Zenith 10-mm automatic pistol. For differing situations, however, Martial personnel can be outfitted with close-quarters weapons such as the 12-gauge SRM Arms M1216 or the 9x19-mm Hurricane TMP-18. Usually, due to their combat training, armor and equipment, Martials are deployed in combat operations where a skilled, educated and loyal fighting force is needed.

Martials wear a combat PAFD chassis with built in bandoliers and equipment hooks. The polygonal armor can dissipate the force of larger caliber bullets than other variations, while the integrated bandoliers and equipment hooks allow personnel to carry large packs and heavier loads. This novel weight distribution system ensures that soldiers are always well-supplied and rarely over-encumbered in combat situations.

With their training and cutting edge equipment, Martials perform admirably in front-line combat operations. They are conditioned and trained for extreme loyalty and will never refuse an order, even when faced with overwhelming odds. Used throughout the world in extended military campaigns, TS Martials can ensure success in high-risk situations, and their conditioning makes them equally perfect for deniable operations. It is highly recommended that Martials are used only in situations where combat will be involved, as they are otherwise overqualified and overpriced.

In summation, the Martial personnel create a new standard for private security and ensure success in combat, and excellence in performance.

Category 3: Heraclean

"Behold: the Nemean Lion!"

Heraclean Personnel are TS's true masters of destruction. The most heavily armed and armored of all TS Personnel, Heraclii are the soldiers who can wreak havoc on dug-in enemies, armored personnel and armored vehicles.

Armed according to the mission requirements, Heraclii can carry the 5.56x45-mm HR12 Minigun (a multi-barrel machine-gun with an extremely high rate of fire), the 329-Series MPRS (a rocket launching system that launches the High Explosive, Dual Purpose HEDP Semi-smart rocket), or the Linebacker G-87 Multiple Shot Grenade Launcher (MSGL), which launches large, 40x46mm HE grenades. Heraclean security specialists are usually only deployed in specific situations where the heaviest firepower is of the utmost necessity, such as countering enemy tank movements, assaulting fortified locations or taking down low-altitude aircraft.

Besides their obvious size and strength, Heraclean Combat Ready Bullet Resistant Suits (CRBRS, or CERBERUS) contain servo powered joints and motorized limb support structures. This grants Heraclii astounding strength and efficiency, as well as the ability to wield the heavy weapons they are trained in, many of which (the M404 and MPRS) are usually only relegated to weapons mounts on vehicles and walls. Heraclii can also act as pack mules for the lighter personnel, able to carry astounding amounts of weight over equally astounding distances.

If you need a man-sized tank, or require an endgame, high-firepower unit, look no farther than the Heraclean Security Specialists from TS.

Heraclean Packages:
Anti-Vehicle Team:

This package is created for destroying armoured vehicles with maximum efficiency and minimum personnel loss. The 10 Heraclii are armed with 329-Series MPRS as well as basic .303 FR-27 Sanction Flechette Rifles and are supplied with a modified NBEIC Grizzly APC.
Up-front fee of 2,030,000₯/ Team of 10
Maintenance Fee of 80,000₯/ month/ Team of 10
Notice: Extra fees may be applicable depending on the risk factor of your desired operation.

Infantry Fire Support Package:

This package is best used to provide heavy fire support for other infantry units. 5 Heraclii are armed with Linebacker G-87 MSGLs, and 5 are armed with 5.56x45-mm HR12 Miniguns, to provide both high explosive and rapid fire munitions capabilities.
Up-front fee of 9,000,000₯/ Team of 10
Maintenance Fee of 900,000₯/ month/ Team of 10
Notice: Extra fees may be applicable depending on the risk factor of your desired operation.

Complete Obliteration Package:

This package is a military leader's dream. It includes a team of 10 Heraclii Armored Engineers, all armed with standard .303 FR-27 Sanction Flechette Rifles and equipped with five D9 Caterpillar Bulldozers with heavy armor plating and machinegun mounts. The package also includes 5 Infantry Fire Support Personnel armed with 2 armed with Linebacker G-87 MSGLs, and 3 are armed with 5.56x45-mm HR12 Miniguns. This is further complimented by a group of 5 Anti-vehicle Heraclii Personnel, armed with 329-Series MPRS as well as basic .303 FR-27 Sanction Flechette Rifles and are supplied with a modified NBEIC Grizzly APC.
Up-front fee of 450,200,000₯/ Team of 20

Mercurial Equipment Listing

1. Hurricane TMP-18

Caliber: 9x19mm Luger/Para
Weight: 1.4 kg unloaded
Length (stock closed/open): 303 / 523 mm
Barrel length: 130 mm
Rate of fire: 900 rounds per minute
Magazine capacity: 30 rounds
Effective range: 50 - 100 meters

The Tactical Machine Pistol 18, or 'Tempest,' has been the standard issue firearm for Mercurial security teams since the company's beginning in 2012. The reliable weapon is distinct, serving as a an interim solution between true machine pistols (such as the Glock 18) and full-size submachine guns (such as the H&KMP5).

It offers a lower, and more controllable rate of fire (900 rounds/minute as opposed to 1100-1200 rounds/minute in automatic pistols like the G18), as well as several other upgrades and features such as a larger magazine capacity, an integral front grip, a Picatinny rail system and a shoulder stock.

The TMP-18 is a short recoil operated, locked breech, selective fired weapon. The Hurricane features a rotating barrel locking, and the bolt is telescoped around the barrel for about half of its length. The entire bolt/barrel group is enclosed in a lightweight polymer housing, which protects the mechanisms from elements and rough handling. The standard sight is a ghost ring (diopter with large aperture) and is fully adjustable, though red-dot sights and night sights are available.


This light submachine gun also uses special 123 grain 9mm Parabellum jacketed hollow point bullets, which provide greater stopping power than the conventional 9mm bullet.

2. Zenith 10-mm Pistol

Caliber: 10×25mm Auto
Weight: 0.785 kg unloaded
Length: 203 mm
Barrel length: 127 mm
Rate of fire: Semi automatic
Magazine capacity: 15 rounds
Effective range: 100-110 meters

The Zenith 10mm Semi Automatic Pistol was specially engineered for TS by KHSC Defence. It serves as the standard issue sidearm for all three classes of security personnel, Mercurial, Martial and Heraclean.

The Zenith is a recoil operated, locked breech semi-automatic pistol. It uses conventional Browning style locking with barrel lowered by shaped cam track in the barrel extension under the chamber. The locking is achieved by single massive lug on the barrel, that locks into the ejection port of the slide. The Zenith features steel construction, with fixed sights and high capacity, double stack magazines.

The 10mm Auto ammunition packs a punch, and comes in both full metal jacket and hollow-point variants.

3. Carcano Mk.X Suppressed Sniper Rifle

Caliber: .416
Weight: 11.2 kg unloaded
Length: 1369 mm
Barrel length: 693 mm
Rate of fire: Semi automatic
Magazine capacity: 8 rounds
Effective range: 400-2,000 meters

The Carcano Mk.X is a rifle designed specifically for PMC use by KHSC's Military and Police Armaments Division (KHSC Defence). It was named after the previous Carcano rifles, but shares very little in common with them aside from a bolt action. The system has, so far, not been exported for foreign use and solely operates within the TS Mercurial arsenal.

The integrated silencer, which is this weapon's main feature, serves to mask a shooter's location, direction or distance over ranges in excess of 400 meters. With greater ranges, between 900 and 2,000 meters, the actual shot sound is negligible given an average level of background noise. The bullet, a .416 caliber supersonic round, will still generate a fair amount of noise, given its supersonic nature. Subsonic rounds are available, but not practical for the long ranges that this rifle is designed to operate at.

The scope includes holographic display and a range calculator. When paired with GPS-enabled TS Defence Display Goggles, standard issue to Mercurial snipers, the shooter has the ability to measure the rotation of the earth, wind and optimal shot angle. Manual calculations are still optimal, but this system allows for quick firing where accuracy is not paramount (i.e. an engaged enemy force with a clear geographic separation from friendly forces.)

Martial Equipment Listing

1. FR-27 Sanction Flechette Rifle

Caliber: .303
Weight: 3.802 kg unloaded
Length: 922 mm
Barrel length: 508 mm
Rate of fire: Semi-automatic/Three Round Burst
Magazine capacity: 20 rounds
Effective range: 550-600 meters

The FR-27 Flechette Rifle is the standard combat rifle for Martial personnel, and is manufactured by KHSC Defence It is an extremely new combat rifle and has not yet seen active combat. With that said, the system has passed rigorous tests and has performed well in simulated combat conditions.

The FR-27 is a combination of several different firearm design ideas, all conglomerated into a sleek, reliable and aesthetically pleasing package. This rifle uses a short piston stroke, gas operated action, with the gas piston mounted inside the compact gas block, which is fixed to the barrel. The housing of the FR-27 rifle is made from the high impact-resistant polymer. It is usually of black (military) or white (police) colour with a red stripe, depending on the personnels' purpose. The housing has two symmetrical ejection ports, one of which is always covered by the plastic cover.

The flechette rounds are the real star of the FR-27 rifle system. Each round utilizes a base sabot surrounding a small, .303 caliber flechette. The flechette provides greater range capabilities, as well as decreased tearing trauma to the target. In this way, the flechette rounds are ideal for conditions where collateral damage is unacceptable.

2. Zenith 10-mm Pistol

See Mercurial Equipment Listing

3. SRM Arms Model 1216B

Cartridge: 12 Gauge
Weight: 3.2 kg unloaded
Length: 863 mm
Barrel length: 457 mm
Rate of fire: Semi automatic
Magazine capacity: 16 rounds
Effective range: 10-40 meters

Heraclean Equipment Listing

1. HR12 Minigun

Caliber: 5.56x45mm
Weight: 14.2 kg unloaded
Length: 1000 mm
Barrel length: 850 mm
Rate of fire: Variable (1000, 2000 or 6000 rounds per minute)
Belt capacity: Unlimited (Standard issue 700 round belts for Heraclii)
Effective range: 70-300 meters

The HR12 Minigun, equipped with a "chainsaw style grip" and a high velocity rotating barrel, has been in the TS arsenal for years. Previously only used on vehicles, the weapon has begun seeing use by Heraclean personnel, whose CERBERUS armor allow them to lift the massive weapons and ammo belts.

The weapon comes with a NiCad battery belt to operate the barrel rotation mechanism, as well as a harness to support the ammunition feed. The gun itself is held via a chainsaw style grip, which aids in reducing recoil. So far, the weapon has proved useful in clearing landing zones, as well as in suppression fire. A Heraclean airdrop can provide a safe LZ within minutes, and enable the quick insertion of troops into a secured area.

Greetings!

The Government of Chronos Prime has been looking for a suitable organization to assist in the transfer of high-value prisoners, and your corporation has recently been brought to our attention by a close ally. Due to this need, you will find enclosed the order form for a detachment of your Martial and Heraclean soldiers. Their mission is to simply protect the aforementioned prisoners from harm during transfer, and then to secure the area around their eventual detonation. It should be a relatively simple task for soldiers such as yours. If they perform as you have led us to believe they will, please expect a long-term contract with our government.

Thank you for your time and service.

With pride,

Lord Grachnik Strakya,

I am Iason Alexandros, Chief Operating Officer for Thermopylae Solutions, and I am contacting you in regards to your request for TS personnel for a prisoner transportation mission, as well as for on site security after prisoner delivery. As COO, I have jurisdiction over the approval of all TS operations and, having reviewed your application for TS operators, I have approved the troops for immediate release to your employ upon receipt of payment.

I assure you that our operators will perform above expectations in securing both the transportation and on-site operations. Having read over the mission description, I would like to make some recommendations and offers, which stem from my personal concern for the safety of all TS operators. I understand that you expect an ambush en route to your destination? This, obviously, causes me some concern. Although you have operational control over these personnel, I would like to offer you some additional equipment and operators to help ensure the safety of my men. These offers are, obviously, free of charge, and stem from the significant investment that each individual TS operator represents to the company.

Specifically, I would like to make available to you the following vehicles and personnel for your planned operation:

• 1 V-24 Swift Fox Multirole Tiltrotor
  
  • 1 Pilot
  • 1 Gunner-EW
  • 1 Crew chief
• 3 Kestral-R UAVs

The V-24 is an effective ground support aircraft with FLIR camera capability, allowing them to effectively see through roadside bushes and plant growth that could conceal hostile units and potential ambushes. I recommend this aircraft as it could scout ahead, detect and engage ambushes before they have a chance to threaten your transport operations' integrity. The V-24 would only be active during the transport operation, after which we would arrange transport for it and its crew to New Korinth or the nearest TS base facility. If you were to require the V-24s continued services for any reason we would be open to discussion but would require monetary compensation for its use past the planned transport operation.

Furthermore, I have included 3 Recon variant Kestral UAVs in the offer, which our Martial personnel are trained to operate. These UAVs are highly capable support systems, which are equipped with IR and laser designator capabilities. They excel in providing peripheral surveillance and can augment on-site security capabilities once the personnel set up a perimeter around your star-port.

Obviously, these additional options are available gratis at your discretion. If you would or would not like the additional vehicles to accompany TS forces please communicate such through any format and I will see to it that your wishes are respected.

As a closing statement I am required to ask that you review our legal licenses and policies. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or my associates.

Thank you for your government's business,
Iason Alexandros
Hippeus First-Class
Chief Operating Officer

Mr. Alexandros--

In response to your communiqué, we would firstly like to thank you for your concern for our mission and your operators alike. In regards to the proposed use of a large aerial vehicle, we regret to inform you that it would be impractical. The majority of the journey will be made through densely populated areas, and air support is already available for the small portion of the journey that passes through the uninhabited region surrounding the convoy's destination. We will, however, accepted your offer for the use of several small UAVs, as they will be able the maneuver between the buildings that flank the convoy's route.

Please also be advised that a team of heavy troops will be available to airdrop into any combat zone in the event that the convoy encounters heavier resistance than expected.

In light of several new threat letters, we also wish to add the following to our previous order of troops:

In the event of any injuries or casualties, your soldiers will be given the best medical care available to us, and will be returned to your corporation's care as soon as health permits.

The required total sum of 126,700,000₯ has been transferred to your accounts, and should be available for your use immediately.

Lord Grachnik Strakya,

I am Iason Alexandros, Chief Operating Officer for Thermopylae Solutions, and I am contacting you in regards to your request for TS personnel for a prisoner transportation mission, as well as for on site security after prisoner delivery. As COO, I have jurisdiction over the approval of all TS operations and, having reviewed your application for TS operators, I have approved the troops for immediate release to your employ upon receipt of payment.

I assure you that our operators will perform above expectations in securing both the transportation and on-site operations. Having read over the mission description, I would like to make some recommendations and offers, which stem from my personal concern for the safety of all TS operators. I understand that you expect an ambush en route to your destination? This, obviously, causes me some concern. Although you have operational control over these personnel, I would like to offer you some additional equipment and operators to help ensure the safety of my men. These offers are, obviously, free of charge, and stem from the significant investment that each individual TS operator represents to the company.

Specifically, I would like to make available to you the following vehicles and personnel for your planned operation:

• 1 V-24 Swift Fox Multirole Tiltrotor

• 1 Pilot
• 1 Gunner-EW
• 1 Crew chief

[*]3 Kestral-R UAVs[/list]
The V-24 is an effective ground support aircraft with FLIR camera capability, allowing them to effectively see through roadside bushes and plant growth that could conceal hostile units and potential ambushes. I recommend this aircraft as it could scout ahead, detect and engage ambushes before they have a chance to threaten your transport operations' integrity. The V-24 would only be active during the transport operation, after which we would arrange transport for it and its crew to New Korinth or the nearest TS base facility. If you were to require the V-24s continued services for any reason we would be open to discussion but would require monetary compensation for its use past the planned transport operation.

Furthermore, I have included 3 Recon variant Kestral UAVs in the offer, which our Martial personnel are trained to operate. These UAVs are highly capable support systems, which are equipped with IR and laser designator capabilities. They excel in providing peripheral surveillance and can augment on-site security capabilities once the personnel set up a perimeter around your star-port.

Obviously, these additional options are available gratis at your discretion. If you would or would not like the additional vehicles to accompany TS forces please communicate such through any format and I will see to it that your wishes are respected.

As a closing statement I am required to ask that you review our legal licenses and policies. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or my associates.

Thank you for your government's business,
Iason Alexandros

Lord Grachnik Strakya,

I have processed and confirmed the additional personnel as well as the UAVs for transport to your nation. Assuming immediate departure at the time that I write this, they should arrive by air in several hours at any designated airport or military air base.

We here at Thermopylae Solutions thank you for your business, and wish you success in your operations. If there is any further augmentation of your nation's defense forces that is required, please do not hesitate to let us know and we will assist you to the best of our ability.

If your operation is a success, or if you have criticisms or comments after the completion of your operation, we welcome feedback on this page or through telegrams.

Thank you for your government's business,

Mr. Alexandros--

In response to your communiqué, we would firstly like to thank you for your concern for our mission and your operators alike. In regards to the proposed use of a large aerial vehicle, we regret to inform you that it would be impractical. The majority of the journey will be made through densely populated areas, and air support is already available for the small portion of the journey that passes through the uninhabited region surrounding the convoy's destination. We will, however, accepted your offer for the use of several small UAVs, as they will be able the maneuver between the buildings that flank the convoy's route.

Please also be advised that a team of heavy troops will be available to airdrop into any combat zone in the event that the convoy encounters heavier resistance than expected.

Greetings brothers! The liberated peoples of Tongola require your companies services!

The Peoples Committee of the Armed Forces has recently completed an overall assessment of our nations military capabilities and among other deficiencies, a major issue that the assessment brought forward was our armies lack of training and professionalism. For our goal of liberation for all Africans and the defense of our revolutionary gains we require professional training the like of which your company may be able to provide. The Peoples Revolutionary Army of Tongola possess vast amounts of revolutionary spirit and morale but without training and discipline will be unable to carry out the tasks required of it.

We are interested in hiring your company to train three brigades of light infantry from the 14th Military District in basic military skills and operational arts. Our nation can provide your company with whatever equipment and facilities you will require for training our forces, within the limits of a developing nation of course. Regrettably, like as is the case with the most of the Peoples Revolutionary Armed Forces's personnel, I myself lack a proper military education and am woefully unknowable about how this training is to be gone about so I hope that your company will be able to accommodate my nation and myself.

-Brother Khaliif

PS- As I mentioned above, I don't know the first thing about training a military force outside of what I've read in comrade Che Guevara's book "Guerrilla Warfare" so any advice on how to go about this whole thing is greatly appreciated. I'm a farmer by trade and I'm only involved in the military as a result of my service during the revolution.

Mr. Khaliif,

I am Iason Alexandros, Chief Operating Officer for Thermopylae Solutions. I have reviewed your request for military training personnel and, this being a somewhat unorthodox request, forwarded your message to the Personnel Training Chief for Thermopylae Solutions, Marcus Apollophanes. After a discussion, we agreed that it would be within the company's operational scope to provide military training to the armed forces of Tongola, and that we had sufficient training personnel to provide such instruction.

I then spoke to our Chief Legal Officer, Lycaon Zenodoros, about whether it would fall within our legal rights to provide military training to a foreign nation's armed forces. According to Mr. Zenodoros, whose legal expertise is well established, this is a matter that would have national security implications for the state of New Korinth. After consulting fellow legal experts at the Korinthian State Department, a sub-bureau of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Zenodoros presented me with the conclusion that for a nation to receive military training from a New Korinthian company, especially one that is government owned (such as Thermopylae Solutions), the nation in question would have to be one not only in line with New Korinth's foreign policy and mission, but also morally unquestionable. Furthermore, the State Department stipulated that, according to New Korinthian law, the nation we are providing training to would have to present no strategic threat to New Korinthian interests abroad or domestically.

The reason I am telling you all this is to explain why, according to New Korinthian law, we are unable to provide the services that you requested. According to the Korinthian State Department, your nation of Tongola is classified as a "communist revolutionary state". The State Department also communicated that your nation's policies and political stances represent a significant departure from New Korinth's moral and political standards. Therefore, Thermopylae Solutions will not be able to aid in the training of your military.

Having been a soldier myself, I understand that you will probably have to report this rejection to your superiors, so I have tried to include as much detail as possible so that you may adequately do that, and so that you may communicate that our rejection of your nation's offer is no fault of your own. If you or your government need any further information as to why we are unable to help you in the requested manner, please feel free to contact me, my associates or the New Korinthian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Thank you for your understanding,

Greetings.

I have notified my superiors of your companies inability to work with our nation due to your host nations foreign policy and they have been understanding. While I find it sad that as a result of my countries Marxist and Maoist inspirations in regards to its political and social systems we are lumped in with the worst that the left has to offer, I understand your country's reluctance to work with us. Although I fear I might sound like a propagandist, the Peoples Republic of Tongola boasts one of the best human rights records in Africa and hold democratic elections on a provincial and national level. Our revolution had the benefit of taking place after the collase of the Soviet Union and as a result we are untainted by its authoritarian policies. While there doubtlessly been abuses and savagery during the early days of our revolution, they were merely the growing pains of a free and just society.

We hope that in the future your government grows more receptive to ours and we will be able to do business, but in the mean time we wish you the best of luck in your affairs.

Kia Ora,

I am writing to you on behalf of the Director of Foreign Relations of the Bank of Yohannes. At the Bank of Yohannes we endeavour to provide quality commercial and retail banking at a competitive rate with a well and truly secured network between our international clienteles. As you would know, Sir, the NationStates roleplaying multiverse and world is certainly quite the dangerous community of nations to exist in, and as a result we have constantly ensured the protection of our overseas assets [outside Yohannes] and the security of our staff.

It has not always been easy, Sir, I can tell you of that as a concrete matter of fact. Just last Friday, the colonial outpost of the Empire of Maxtopia - the Randascalicious Realms of Estates and Tribes - has declared their independence from the omnipresent Barry Imperial government. Good on them! I dare say not: eight of our branches and no less than fifty of our staff were declared as ‘traitors’ as well as ‘foreign oppressors’ and subsequently electrocuted to their not so peaceful deep slumber. And what about our affiliated security firms and contractors? Well, we have had not a single one within the borders of Randascalicious. Oh boy have we learnt a lesson or two that Friday?

And as we speak even now… our MAL140 index real estate securities are at risk of being targeted by the Anarcho-Liberal and Jacobite rebels of Bigtopian province district one hundred and sixty five. The Hunger Games has recently been declared by the Bigtopian President, and consequently, the citizens of that district are not at their very best of mood. Now, surely we can not afford to let yet another group of our virtual assets be taken by these peasants? I dare you not of the perilous state of this world we are together inhabiting.

Therefore, and for the many other causes of which I can not name as I am sure you would know of the limited number of words this virtual letter can hold, Sir, I am hereby forwarding you with the following application, on behalf of the Bank of Yohannes, for the representatives of your decision making body to decide upon;

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Iason Alexandros, COO for Thermopylae Solutions. After a customary board review of your application for Thermopylae operators, I am glad to say that the Bank of Yohannes' order has been approved. The troops have been approved for immediate release to your employ, upon receipt of payment.

Payment would normally total at 8,500,000₯ up front, with a further 170,000₯ paid monthly. Because of a partnerships existing between Thermopylae Solutions and the Yohannesian industrial sector, we have granted a one-time 15% discount from the up-front fee, with a 5% discount for each monthly payment.

Thus, the total payment is as follows:

• 7,225,000₯ one-time payment
• 161,500₯ paid each month that Thermopylae operators are in your employ (rounded up)

Payment can be sent via direct money wire, or via cheque. Cheques should be made payable to Thermopylae Solutions.

As a closing statement I am required to ask that you review our legal licenses and policies. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or my associates.

Mr. Alexandros--

We are happy to inform you that the mission for which your men were required has been successfully carried out. The expected ambush did occur, but was less well organized than expected. Two of your operators were seriously injured, and received minor injuries, but please rest assured that they are receiving the best medical care that our government has to offer. They will be returned to their comrades as soon as their condition allows it.

The mission as a whole was a success, and the high-value prisoners have successfully been transferred to a more secure location off-planet. The majority or your men and their equipment, with the exception of the aforementioned injured operators, are currently being transported back to your headquarters in New Korinth.

We thank you for your service, and look forwards to working with you an your exceptional men in the future.

Official Message from Zeus Defense Industries

To: Thermopylae Solutions PMC
From: Victor Petrov, CEO of Zeus Defense Industries
Subject: Offers of Armament Procurement

To whom it may concern,

Greetings, this is Victor Petrov of Zeus Defense Industries. After observing Thermopylae Solutions PMC and its weapons, we at Zeus Defense Industries has seen that Thermopylae Solutions PMC may be improved through the purchase of more vehicles. For such reasons, Zeus Defense Industries has decided to offer Thermpylae Solutions PMC a chance to bid for any weapons Thermopylae Solutions PMC may need - therefore, we would like to offer weapons from zeusdefense.com to Thermopylae Solutions PMC.

In addition to this offer, we at Zeus Defense Industries are also looking towards options of signing a contract detailing that Zeus Defense Industries becomes the primary armament dealer of Thermopylae Solutions PMC. I hope you consider this offer carefully - Zeus Defense Industries can offer capable and adequate weapons that can enhance your soldiers' capabilities.

To Mr. Petrov:

I have reviewed your company's proposal and, in keeping with standard corporate practices, submitted it to the Executive Board for consideration. After discussion, and a review of our 2nd Quarter financial records, we have decided that now is a perfect time to expand Thermopylae's fleet of land vehicles. Specifically, we're looking to include a greater range of light multirole vehicles and amphibious craft.

From a cursory look at the Zeus Defense Industries storefront, I can say that the ZDI Foxhound would fulfill the LMV requirement admirably. I'm sure that I'll have no trouble justifying the purchase of these vehicles to the Executive Board.

As for the other class of vehicles we are looking for, amphibious craft, I noticed the ZDI AG-20S Sea Tiger is an amphibious IFV. While this will suffice, it would be easier to justify a troop carrier over an Infantry Fighting Vehicle. Thermopylae Solutions offers personnel for a wide variety of situational demands, among which are disaster relief and aid work. While we do engage in occasional amphibious combat operations, the majority of our work requiring land-sea vehicles is humanitarian in nature. For this reason, I wondered if Thermopylae Solutions could commission a special variant of the AG-20 White Tiger? The requirements for the vehicle would be as follows:

• Unarmed
• Cargo/Supply hooks (external)
• Expanded storage space (internal)
• Increased internal personnel capacity
• A power source for operating medical equipment, separate and isolated from the main vehicle battery
• Large exterior lights (mounted on extendable poles) for providing area lighting
• A white/blue color scheme

If you think that these requirements are attainable, then Thermopylae Solutions would be more than able to finance the development and acquisition of such a vehicle. We are, in part, subsidized by the New Korinthian Department of Defense, so the cost of such a project is within our means.

As to becoming primary armament dealer to Thermopylae Solutions, I do not know if that is possible due to existing agreements between the Korinthian State Holdings Corporation (our parent company) and other entities. If such a deal would become possible in the future, I would of course notify your company.

I will also be posting the above expressed vehicle orders, in more finite/precise terms, on the ZDI storefront, using the given order form. As for the specialty vehicle commission, I hope you will let me know here whether such a project is feasible.

I look forward to working with ZDI in the future,

[Military Democracy of Birtonia]

To: Thermopylae Solutions PMC
From: Knight-Major Hector Bolin
Subject: Conquest of Fontain Island

Greetings,

The Birtonian military has engaged in conflict with both the nations of Adland and Freakoland. Currently we are undergoing a campaign to seize a strategic point in the Adish sea, Fontain Island. Our naval forces are currently undergoing battles to wrest the seas under our control. I am in command of a Brigade that is currently occupying the city of Pembroke, until reinforcements from the BGDF arrive to help us fortify the area and establish airfields and other facilities to further support our campaign.

I have been authorized any and all funds necessary to accomplish my objective. Our nation used to contract with the VAPON firm, but they have closed temporarily and are under new management. I have done my research and found your organization to be both highly efficient as well as capable for the operations which I suggest. Be assured, while this is a risky operation your men and equipment will have the full support of both BNDF naval artillery, and rockets and entire infantry and artillery battalions on their flanks. Once the next wave of reinforcements hit the island we will be constructing temporary airstrips and more land forces will arrive. Currently a carrier and battleship group are en route to the AO and will provide further support.

Sincerely,

My name is Iason Alexandros, COO for Thermopylae Solutions. After a customary board review of your application for Thermopylae operators, I am glad to say that the Birtonian military's order has been approved.

I apologize personally for the severe delay in response to your initial inquiry, which is entirely uncharacteristic of our usual business practices. As such you will be granted a 50% discount for the first 12 months of your orders, if you decide to continue with the purchase.

The troops have been approved for immediate release to your employ, upon receipt of payment. They will arrive within the month of November.

Payment would normally total at 484,852,632₯ up front, with a further 11,370,000₯ paid monthly. Because of a special discount on account of clerical mistakes on our part (your order being accidentally overlooked) you will receive a 50% discount on all of these payments.

Thus, the total payment is as follows:

• 242,426,315₯ one-time payment
• 5,685,000₯ paid each month that Thermopylae operators are in your employ (rounded up)

Payment can be sent via direct money wire, or via cheque. Cheques should be made payable to Thermopylae Solutions.

As a closing statement I am required to ask that you review our legal licenses and policies. If you have any questions, or would like to cancel this order (due to ur clerical oversight) please feel free to contact me or my associates.

Thank you for your company's business, and greatest apologies for any inconvenience as a result of our slow response,
Iason Alexandros

Subject: Conquest of Fontain Island

Greetings,

The Birtonian military has engaged in conflict with both the nations of Adland and Freakoland. Currently we are undergoing a campaign to seize a strategic point in the Adish sea, Fontain Island. Our naval forces are currently undergoing battles to wrest the seas under our control. I am in command of a Brigade that is currently occupying the city of Pembroke, until reinforcements from the BGDF arrive to help us fortify the area and establish airfields and other facilities to further support our campaign.

I have been authorized any and all funds necessary to accomplish my objective. Our nation used to contract with the VAPON firm, but they have closed temporarily and are under new management. I have done my research and found your organization to be both highly efficient as well as capable for the operations which I suggest. Be assured, while this is a risky operation your men and equipment will have the full support of both BNDF naval artillery, and rockets and entire infantry and artillery battalions on their flanks. Once the next wave of reinforcements hit the island we will be constructing temporary airstrips and more land forces will arrive. Currently a carrier and battleship group are en route to the AO and will provide further support.

Sincerely,

Knight-Major Hector Bolin
Infantry, Commanding
33rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team
Birtonian Ground Defense Force

Ave! Greetings!

I appreciate the response to the application for Thermopylae Solutions, however the conflict on Fontain Island has already been resolved and Knight-Major Bolin now has the situation contained. With that being said, I still have reviewed your letter and find the terms and required costs to be acceptable. Though the conflict we originally reached out to you for is long and over, I still find that your company can be of use to the Imperium.

I will be in contact with you in the near future regarding operational requirements of your men as well as details of missions that will arise.

With the recent escalation of conflict on the Iberius Peninsula the need for security home and abroad has increased. A Peace Conference is planned to be held in Tekeristan, and will require bolstered security to prevent terror attacks. Increased pirate activity has been harassing trade ships passing by the peninsula.

Desired Packages x Amount: Mercurial Standard Security Package x 3

Total Cost of Items (before any additional fees): 1.5 million

Risk Level (High, Medium or Low): Low-Medium

Are these personnel intended for a specific operation? If so, please provide details regarding the operation: 1 security team will see use in the capital of Tekeristan, Ferrum, as a rapid response and security team in the event of terror attacks on the upcoming Peace Conference for the Iberius Peninsula. This team will be expected to work with existing security elements, as well as to keep a screen of security. This team will be regarded as Alpha in this document.

Bravo team, consisting of 2 of these security teams, will be deployed along various Tekeristani freighters passing by the Iberius Peninsula to guard against piracy. As expected, these teams will not require any sort of vehicles. However, the risk level for Bravo group, compared to Alpha, is higher due to the nature of these operations.

Special Equipment or Vehicle Requirements? Alpha team should see use of unarmed, armored vehicles equipped with police lights.

Bravo team should prepare the use of necessary weaponry for the elimination of helicopters and crudely-armored pirate assault boats. There has been evidence of larger boats in the area. Pirates will likely use ambushes.

Any questions or comments?: Cargo ships passing through pirate waters will be outfitted with rear-facing torpedo nets to protect against crude torpedo often used by pirates.
