Title: Creed Defence Industries (Government Owned Armament Company)
Post by: ApatheticExcuse on December 11, 2016, 05:49:33 am
Company Name: Creed Defense Industries
Intent: The state manufacturer of weapons and military equipment for the Rastal Collective.
Location: Creed System
Affiliation: Rastal governmental agencies, and their allies
Worth: Irrelevant


Description & History:

Within a few years of their taking to the stars, and accordingly deciding to bring co-operation and collectivism to the galaxy at large, the Rastal came to the conclusion that such a feat was simply not possible unless backed by a significant armed force. Early ventures into the systems nearest their homeworlds had identified the Creed system as particularly well suited to act as a system-wide industrial complex, with all celestial bodies present being incredibly rich in resources, and the system's only easily habitable planet also having a very low gravitational pull relative to their homeworld. This seemed like a logical starting point for their new production facilities, and within a few years, the entire Creed system had been exploited and geared towards the production of materials for the Rastal's crusade.

As with all Rastal industries, the CDI is really more of an amalgamation of multiple public entities working together to achieve a specific goal and accordingly, further the Rastal society as a whole rather than provide noteworthy financial gains. While several subdivisions of the group do produce basic consumer goods, CDI by and large focuses completely on production of military equipment, from small arms to starships, producing well over 80% of the total yearly output of this type of good singlehandedly.

While there are some disadvantages to concentrating such a large portion of their defence manufacturing in a single place, the Rastal feel the Creed system is secure enough, and that the benefits in streamlining production and development far outweigh the potential risks. Besides this, Rastal collectivisation doctrines simply don't allow them to effectively operate any other way.

At present, CDI only provides weapons directly to Rastal government agencies. This is subject to change, however, as the system commissariat and Ministry of Production have both taken the open sale issue to vote several times in the past.

The pricing seems a little low, as far as I understood it 1 GSC is roughly equivalent to $10, though I guess that hasn't entirely been decided upon at all so the pricing might be fine.

Oh. In that case, the pricing is too high. I assumed 1 GSC = $1.

This is stuff we could realistically build right now, today. It shouldn't be hard or expensive to make in the future, and given that the CDI is a literal non-profit organization, these aren't supposed to cost much. Really, with the way the R-70 series works, for example, they should cost around $800 to produce in today's dollar, not including optics and stuff, and assuming you pay your workers well.

Besides. I'm not really sure how much they cost matters, TBH. It's not like we're gonna buy things from eachother when we all have our own corporations.
