*******POSTED TO THE QUARTERMASTERS GUN CAGE*******
Alright boys, i'm running dry on cash and it looks like most of you have your basic equipment. This means that in 3 days, i will hike the prices so i can gain a profit to supply more recruits. Prices on weapons will vary from 15-40% profit depending on the demand and original price. So come get your guns while there cheap, the changes will be put into effect this Thursday( IC & IRL)

In other words, my 9k grant has dried up and i can't afford to supply everyone at the price of the traders menu, in order to actually get enough money to supply anybody i must hike the prices so its more efficient.
But we're ALL Short on cash Damnit!
Thing is, it cost around 2500 Ru to supply each soldier with A basic weapon, radio and ammo. I only got a grant of 9k, which can only supply 3 military and myself (Provided i collect my paychecks) There is no way i can continue to supply you guys (for FREE, may i add) without getting some kind of profit to supply more soldiers (And so-on and so-forth) Im only charging something like 15-30% on the trader price, so that's still lower than like any other trader, so it's not that bad, just deal with it. Sorry.
Sniper you are lucky... the rest got 5000
The rest don't have to supply the entire military with weapons for free... (For the first week or so that is)
Ahh its okay. I don't mind paying for my equipment. Besides, if they can't afford the gun make them turn in there oncoming paychecks to you, Like what you did for me.
Or start a fund raiser! lol

What about Duty , Freedom , Mono , Loner and Bandit factions? As much as i know everyone of them got 5000 why mili should get more?
Because you love us..? :)
I got a 10000 rouble grant and I was required to use it to get money into the economy, not for my own benefit. In other words I spent all of it giving STALKER's little jobs and missions, or somehow paying a STALKER. All of Freedom's own supplies have come out of my wallet. Of course Freedomers put a lot of money into that wallet so I can supply them.
Its the same for DUTY, all faction leaders that are able to give missions out to stalkers are giving a 10000 grant, and we've used it, any guns found in the faction is OUR money, and i personally have given guns out for free to my faction members, its hard times for everyone right now.
Hey, why'd I get no roubles. D;
Yea i just joined and i have literally nothing.
Shouldnt Millitary, like Ecologists be supplied with Money from the Admin team...? There Goverment funded.
There's a lot of things that SHOULD happen in the world.
Wait wait, the Ecologists are funded by the admin team? or did i read that wrong?
Well Blake could offer me money for a low-grade artifact a Trader could dream of having, so I presume so.
Military are ICly Government funded and equipped, so this buy-your-own-protection is a bit silly. We got raided by teh freedom exos and we had to beg for more ammo for our pea-shooters and low-grade AKs.

Cough.. I dident get a 10k grant to supply mercs, that' has to come out of my own pocket.. AND i have to give money to my troops...
I usually do an AD for Traders to come to our base so we can trade. This way we don't look bad leaving the base in Loner suits, or what some soldiers do by, "OOC'ly going to buy items"...

Hey, I pooled in atleast 3k to the Military fund :D
Well we are kind of at an extreme disadvantage, freedom got their exos refunded, so we should get our entire armoury refunded.

Then we'd have started off with two exoskeletons and no guns while you were armed to the teeth. See how that might cause problems?

Yer, theyd bounce right off you.
The helicopter is barley and advantage either, it does fuck all.
In the recent wipe, freedom started off better off than any other faction.
We don't even get a helicopter because no one can spawn it. Except maybe Radek. But we all know how THAT works out. =p

We'd have nothing to fire back with, not to mention there's only two exoskeletons. Once the bullets stopped bouncing off we'd be dead as the rest of our men.
In honesty its not the issue about other factions being better off, its about factions not being equipped full stop.
