[i]Artemis Global[/i] will bid on all items, with this addition addition:

If somebody bids on an item, we will counter-bid at one-third of a price lower than said bidder and provide for transportation costs ourselves.

OOC: essentially I'm only bidding on items other people will bid on, and if there are leftovers we'll take them as well

Quarter Master Command would like to know from where Artemis Global would be supplying the contract items, to be aware of the delivery criteria.
[/quote]
[i]Artemis Global[/i] ships all orders through two ways:

1. Ross Island, Antarctica. This goes through our non-German headquarters and is protected by an array of Artemis teams on an air-and-sea voyage through international waters up into the Indian Ocean and finally into Cochin.
2. On-site factories. For a small fee of $2.2mil Artemis credits, we can fully construct a factory, staff it with local workers, and then manufacture on site. Delivery would be done through [i]Artemis[/i] trucks driven by trained, local drivers.

Quarter Master Command informs Global Defence Incorporated and Alvonian Weapons Systems that only bids quoting [b]less[/b] than the baseline price is to be submitted. The baseline price reflects approximate cost of the said munitions when produced by Cochin State Armory and its affiliated procurement agencies. A bid with the same quote would naturally not be considered for the issue of contract.

We request you to resubmit your bids.

The bids from your companies have been accepted for the tender but the contracts have not been issued. Bids would be received until 29th May until when the accepted bidders would be expected to bring their products to be subjected to field testing under Royal Cochin Army supervision. The contracts would be issued only after the last date of tender submission.

Quarter Master Command thus requests you to send your products to be field tested to National Training Center, Jaisalmer. The designated port of approach is RCNB Kandla where Quarter Master Command would organize transportation to transport your men and materials to the testing center.

MARS officials had a good chuckle at the lack of understanding from the competition.

Two Featherlite cargo aircraft were loaded, each with a dual trailer MSV, the trailers set for pallets of ammo. Driven onto the planes from the rear, the nose of each aircraft would rise to allow the transports to drive off.

Included in the testing shipment would be one hundred of each large caliber (80mm and up) two hundred of each medium caliber (40mm) five thousand of each small arm long cartridge and a thousand of the 9mm.

The Cargo Aircraft from MARS would be directed by ATC officials to land at Auxiliary Air Base Jodhpur from where the ammunition and the personnel from MARS would be transported to the NTC Jaisalmer.

The MSV's arrived at the NTC and followed directions to the unloading area. Once there, the drivers locked the brakes and moved to open the trailers. The sides of the trailers were lowered in sections, forming ramps for forktrucks to unload the palletized ammunition. 

Each different type was clearly marked, the small and medium calibers in black hard cases with red and white lettering. The large caliber rounds denoted by both white lettering on the shells and color coded tips.

As this was happening, MARS represenitives were seeking out their counterparts. 

"Slainte. I am Alexander McCullen, vice president in charge of sales and second son of James McCullen the XVth, the owner and CEO of Military Armaments Research Syndicate. The two gentlemen with me are from our R&D division, Mr. Jason Faria and Mr. Lonzo Wilkerson. Should you have any questions during the tests, we will be available to answer them."
