Why Should YOU Help Us Expand By Opening Facilities!?
Wolf Armaments relies on its capability to manufacture its goods at the best possible quality; this process must be undertaken with great patience and swift movement. Speed and precision is required to keep up with our many orders; we want to provide the world with reliable tools for defense at the fastest possible speed. That is why we NEED to expand not only in our home country but in other countries around the world. We require more hands, more materials, and more experts then we ever did before. That is why we have present options for foreign governments to invite our manufacturing plants to their soil; an action that allows us to increase our manpower, number of trained experts, and allows us to increase our operations. But your country and maybe your leaders are asking us: "What does this for us? What do we get out of this?" We want to answer the many benefits that your country and our foreign employees will receive. Wolf Armaments has came up with a simple system that explains these benefits; it is called the EJ&B. What is the EJ&B?
E is for Economy. Countries that openly allow businesses to expand will see an improvement in their economy through the many phenomenons that businesses cause on national economies. Wolf Armaments, like other businesses, pay its employees handsomely to perform their job with admirable quality; these employees will use that payment to buy things, invest in things, and for many other uses. This chain affect will put more money into a country's economy and therefore improve it. Our products, which may be sold in your country already, will add new products to the market; this will make competition which will with time create better quality and even more cash flow into your nation's economy. Do you get the gist yet? Business, ours in this case, will bring new benefits to your economy through added cash flow, new products, and competition.
J is for Jobs. Your citizens require work, that's a given. Unemployment rates need to be curved and your people simply need an income. That is why Wolf Armaments can be a source of assistance in your country. Wolf Armaments offers a variety of jobs from security, manufacturing line, design, resources, banking, account management, and various other manufacturing based jobs. These jobs are not piss poor penny jobs either; Wolf Armaments is proud to pay its employees for a hard day's work based on an hourly salary, or by-the-hour pay. We encourage hard work, excellent quality, and loyal determination. We do not encourage inhumane conditions, employee abuse, and unfair conditions. Wolf Armaments works hard but we do not want our image to be negative either; that is why we work hard to empower our employees and do charity work to assist those in need. Foreign workers are paid very fairly with no discrimination based on nationality or gender, they get the same treatment as our native employees, and foreign workers get the same opportunities as our native workers; we value hard work and upstanding loyalty over anything. Wolf Armaments provides many jobs with one manufacturing plant complex alone; giving many foreigners thousands of jobs in order to earn an hourly salary to provide for their families and for their own uses.
Finally; B is for Benefits. As explained above, Wolf Armaments takes care of its employees as best as it can. That is why we pay our employees fairly, why we offer many jobs, and how we provide benefits to our employees. To start with; employees are subject to extensive security and safety checks in order to become an employee. This is to protect us, our home country's technology, and to make sure an employee can safely do his/her job without causing a safety hazard to themselves or others. Employees are then entered into our beneficial programs for employees as they start training for their career choice. These benefit programs include a retirement fund that adds cash over time to assist with retirement, multiple health and dental care plans, vacation time and sick leave, maternity leave, accident and failure reimbursement, a second private fund for employees after they leave the workforce, and multiple break time perks. These benefits are designed to inspire employees and reward them for their hard work, as well as provide incentive and safety nets.
Wolf Armaments is proud of its workforce as much as it is proud of its products; without our employees, the products we sell would never be made or sold. Employees make this company as great as it is and that's why we want to treat them like the upstanding 'Wolves' they are. Bellow we will share once more our application to open manufacturing plants so that your country can improve your itself as well as help us. We hope to see your country join the Wolf Armament family today!
OOC Information/Rules
- 1: Orders will be made In Character only. OOC chatter is not permitted unless necessary or I allow it. Telegrams can be used for OOC discussion on anything regarding purchases, orders, complaints, etc.. If you have a question, TGs are the best avenue for them, but I will not discourage anyone from asking an honest question here - IC or OOC (if it's necessary).
- 2: Orders will not be one liners or poorly written grammar atrocities. I make great exceptions but if they are not readable, poorly written one line letters, or other badly damaged communique, the user will either be told to edit them or asked to be deleted by modification. If you feel you cannot make a halfway sufficient communique order post, or are worried otherwise, use the applications available for easier purchases. Orders do not need to be written communiques anyways so long as you have an application filled out that's legible (more on that in a moment); a written IC communique that is understandable, written with real attempt, and isn't one-liner in quality is more than welcome. Professionalism is greatly encouraged.
- 2A: Applications are to be filled out with the needed information in as legible writing as possible. If said applications are still in eligible, you will be asked to make edits. It's also stressed that customers be as specific as possible with what they're ordering. Many products here have variants or add-ons that can make the process more in-depth, so it's encouraged to research before posting an order. I do what I can to make it easier (such as using packages with specifics added, listing such information as best I can, and look the other way when it comes to minor mistakes), but if you're unspecific about the said product you want, I am forced to give you the item I consider the base standard; whether that costs more or less is not the issue, but rather making sure customers get their desired product.
- 3: Trolling, threadjacking, baiting, and inexcusable OOC posting is prohibited here. NS Forum rules are fiercely enforced here.
- 4: Orders should remain as realistic as possible. Im happy for the business and earning money, but if I feel your nation cannot back such lol huge numbers, or is clearly a trolling/spam attempted infinity number, your order/application will likely be denied. If you are unsure about your nation/client being able to afford such bills, then please follow this advice: analyze your nation's economic strength, avoid trackers, and consult myself or other experienced players to determine your economic strength; I am TG away, always, and the Help Desk here in GE&T is a great place to seek advice. I also suggest using payment plans (which I will judge fairly) to pay any super high bills.
- 4A: Concerning trackers and other online media sources that estimate wealth of nations. These sites, known as trackers and economy tools, shall not be used nor will they be accepted as legitimate tools on this storefront. Why? They display information about your nation's (your NationStates' account) financial standing; this, remember, is based on issues your nation receives from NationStates. Im sorry NS staff and writers (actually, on second thought, im not because I have a fair point) but these issues are inspired by J.J. Abrams and movie events that depict unrealistic issues that are over hyped and far too common. As an experienced player on NS, I assure you that these trackers and issues portray a false, not realistic result that should never be used with stricter MT rules. Therefore, trackers will not be accepted here as proof of funds or power (or other stats for that matter). For more information concerning the Tracker Issue, please visit this thread here.
- 5: I, as the god of this thread, can turn down orders that for any reason whatsoever. I have OP power here as the original poster, owner of this storefront, and will act upon my god-like powers if I find it necessary. Personal reasoning or business alike, I can turn down your order/application if I feel I need/wish to do so - no such thing as discrimination laws in this bitch. I may also cancel past orders if I am alerted to illegal activity or for any other personal reasoning I may have. That said, I have rarely had to do this in the past and it is highly unlikely to happen so long as we're all being honest here. Do not let this rule discourage you from ordering or placing an application here in the future! I promise I don't bite (well... not too hard anyways...).
- 6: Do not plagiarize any of the products listed here, whether they belong to the OP or are being sold as retail (in which case, the owner has consented/offered to sell their product(s) here). Any plagiarism spotted on the forum will be reported to Moderation and/or involved parties.
Black List
- Greater Prussia: For the majority action of funding, condoning, and providing aid to international LGBT terrorism. This majority stance is in support of the founder, an already banned player, in their struggles that shall not be named. Uncovered details describe Commoners as a primary target for terrorists and Greater Prussia governments, and therefore, Wolf Armaments shall not assist potential hostiles nor shall it potentially arm terrorists by selling to members of the Greater Prussia government. Sales are prohibited, facilities are closed down and all items shipped elsewhere, and DPRs halted. This policy shall remain in place until a time determined that the Greater Prussian government ceases its support for LGBT terrorism and end its targeting of Commoners.
About Wolf Armaments' Products (OOC)
To clarify things to the world, Wolf Armaments uses designs that were created by TECT but with art that was originally made on some basic parts used from some artists from Junior General. These include commonplace wheels, tank tracks, and some hulls found around here and there based on real life vehicles; the main reason for this was for both practice and to fill the limitations I had at the time as a new artist. The degree was more serious when I originally started and as it stands, most actual rip offs have been removed from the actual product list (this means art that either was spliced, badly modified, or outright bad was either taken off and replaced or was modified to either brand new status or has some remnants of original design inside it); if any still remain, then I have not gotten to it for a number of reasons. I will not begin to list what has what and what is from where - it is impossible at this point to and it is much simpler to address the issue itself. For the record, recent products released by myself are 100% done by myself (I am speaking of art here as my write-ups are all done 100% with some stats/designs borrowed from a certain friend who has signaled to me long ago he's okay with it) and everything is 100% drawn from scratch. Much of the artwork used has been replaced with more modern versions that contain little to no trace of the original design that would be legitimate issues to be upset about. What remains today is this: updated vehicles that may contain the minimum of minimum remnants of portions from original designs (this includes grass in artwork and some small portions of tank tracks for example, which I will not personally credit due to the fact grass and ground are easily drawn templates that no one should legitimately claim as their property - if im wrong, they will likely be listed within the list of artists anyways). I will continue to update the list bit by bit until the aforementioned artwork either is modified beyond possible original existence or until I am satisfied with my modifications which may retain the origin's traces. Credit will be due accordingly if it's deserving.
It is unintended for Wolf Armaments to steal art from hardworking artists, rather, it's the owner's stubborn self that refused to give credit for the parts they used in the past. Wolf Armaments was intended to sell TECT based gear and anyone with the correct quality to be able to sell it on the storefront too. (This list may change, be amended, or added to depending on situations arising at any time) I would like to first thank Junior General for hosting artwork that I originally took sample models to work from, and parts that I eventually used and/or removed later on; furthermore, this site continues to inspire me and help provide models that I can construct my own art from (not literally, I mean they inspire me by being a model to look from rather then to take from, of course). The same can be said for Shipbucket, for which I've learned from in terms of naval art. The following names are from artists whos parts I may have used in the past and maybe still use in some of my art according to sources that have provided said information to me: Francisco Rios, Michael Smith and Marvin Schneck and JasonX, Xaxk, HALFTRACK, and Marcel Aslers. If there are any names believed to be missing on this list, send a TG (do not post here or it will be deleted by request) to the OP along with evidence and the additions will be added accordingly. Thank you. And I apologize if any of this confusion has caused mixed feelings or troubles.
