The Vinci-Armstrongs logo, depicting a stylised V and A
~•~
The Vinci-Armstrongs company is a large union of several semi-independent industries. It is formed mainly by two companies: Vinci Workshop and Armstrongs Engineering, and several other smaller ones, which have banded together to stand a better chance in the competitive Lion economy. Generally, VA specialises in machinery, engineering and metallurgy. They are responsible for many of common-day comforts present in a Lion home, such as kitchen tools and electrics. They are also responsible for a large chunk of the Lion Kingdom's weaponry, such as the A5 Champion, Sm-6 submarine and other vehicles.
The union was created many decades ago, and has been re-organised and changed focus many times. It must be agreed that it has mostly grown and become more powerful and famous. It has employed many great minds and played a large role in the Chimean economy and politics landscape.
Toady, Vinci-Armstrongs has several factories spread around Lion territory, and it's value is estimated to be in the billions. It employs vast quantities of Lions and machinery, but even then it cannot satisfy the large and potent and large Lion war machine. Thus, it has licensed many products to other fellow companies for wartime production. It has developed many successful weapons, which have been adopted by the Lion army, and is trying to create partnerships with other tribes to gain experience in areas such as aviation and naval building.
OOC: Expect more such posts. I expect the next one to cover the Leon-Enfield Armoury, a series about the Lion Kingdom, and then equipment descriptions.
(OOC: Howabout i make a outland competitor to your corp? Also sorry if the image is small, annoying image modding. )
A Trusted Friend In Outland Science and rival to Vinci-Armstrongs.
Aperture Mesa; the Outland Science Innovator, is a Research facility and manufacturing plant and testing/proving grounds as well. Being used by Scorpion Military and Scorpion Royalty for the reasons of developing new weapons, testing said weapons and approving said weapons from their "East" sub-plant. The Main Aperture Mesa Facility is just underground of the Scorpion Cavern Castle, based around a few thousand feet deep (like 10000 meters deep). From order (It was mostly a last resort for him.) of 3IC Scortica, he was appointed the CEO of the company and subsidiaries as he was appointed this position when Scorm turned it down, along with his wife, Queen Scorpia, and their son, Prince Scorpio.
This company is relatively new since the uprising of the outland tribes, AKA the "Crawlers". With the facility comes the most extensive technology the inlanders yet to behold and fear. With much testing from the Sector C Test Labs and "Enrichment Spheres", many weapons from new guns and melee weapons to high tech jets and tanks are tested each day, 24/7 until their specs are met to required desires. Most of these weapons usually fail to pass the rigorous testing due to being pushed to their limits and the limited brain capacities of some of the test subjects. The most liked labs in the facility, are the "Anomalous Materials Labs", where workers must wear a H.E.P.S. (Hazardous Environment Protection Suit) to work safely in the test labs due to unknown materials handled there. To gain access to the Aperture Mesa Facility, one has to go through extensive scanning and document sorting and all that other technical stuff, plus added with highest of technical knowledge and education akin to an MIT and/or Harvard level of education that is Ivy-League level. Then one rides a automated Tram in Aperture Mesa's transport system, this is mostly underground whilst some parts of it are in the mountain range near the Black Fang Mountain, accompanied by our Automatic Announcement and Diagnostic System to guide them to their destination and provide facts about our beloved facility and warn them if any danger is around. There are also multiple hydroelectric dams powering the science facility and the Scorpion Cavern as well.
CEO, Dr. Johnson Breen (AKA, Scortica) guesses the work of the Armstrongs corp is not to be wasted and that the science facility's stocks are up and Aperture Mesa's future looks good. together, with other outland tribes, the company will assimilate all of Cavora's chi to better the research and development to the outlanders and possibly overcome Vinci-Armstrongs in profits of their tech. The workforce is mostly comprised of these percentiles, they are working on robotics and intelligent and sentient AI as we speak, as well as special Zero Point Energy Field Manipulators (ZPEFM's) for carrying hazardous materials and being tested as an experimental weapon, and a portable quantum tunneling device, or for short, a "Portal Gun". Clearly proving that Aperture Mesa is MORE ADVANCED than the VA corp. They will soon phase out organic testing with robotic testing, once the new robotics and AI are tested properly.
Workforce Percentile:
Scorpion Scientists: 45%
Bat Scientists: 55%
Scorpion Test subjects: 50%
Spider Test Subjects: 50%
(Due to a recent attack by the bats, most of our bat test subjects have been taken back to their tribe, and have taken jobs as scientists and other jobs in the facility instead. The Spiders are merely rebels against the Spider Queen's rule and have devoted themselves to science.)
Well hey if its a competition for best companies, then let it be From the Gorillas we have GOTTA (We totally ripped off Skoda) (The transparency on it disappeared please help)
GOTTA stands for: Gorilla autOmaker of Technics Tanks & Aircrafts
By technics, we imply literally any military production.
(And yes I know how acronyms work, GATTA just doesn't roll off the tongue)
So 50 years ago, this one guy named Gotta was tired of the fact that he was run by lazy monarchs, who were bad at running their tribe, so he decided to improve the lives of his fellow Gorillas, by founding GAS (Gorilla Automobiles & Speedors) by producing speedors and armoured cars, which were too expensive for the average worker, and too useless for the government. So after going bankrupt, he teamed up with a famous doctor, and successful entrepreneur named Gorbav, and then got a government license to produce Gorilla Mechs and so GEMEC (Gorilla Electrical Mechanical Engineering Company) they became pretty good at building mechs and would soon be producing 90% of all Gorilla war equipment thanks to their innovations in mass production.
However, the founders of GEMEC (Gotta and Gorbav) were huge anti government revolutionaries, who hated the monarchy, since the monarchy kept failing in wars, and the people were in a poor state, Gotta and Gorbav, along with the poor workers, and the demoralised army, decided, "Hey! Lets overthrow the monarchy or something" -Gotta (paraphrased quote) So they did, in a non-violent peaceful Coup.
After the coup, everybody thought that the name GEMEC was too Imperial, they wanted a new name and by this time Gotta came up with a good acronym, so he changed the companys name to GOTTA (Except now they produce 100% of all gorilla equipment).
Their technology is very advanced, because they used to be the industrial branch of Lysandre Labs, so they just took all their inventions after the labs fell. They also make trains, because they can. Their most famous product is the Gorilla Mech, which is constantly getting improved and updated, along with the gorilla turrets. Their company is worth somewhere in the billions.
GOTTA also has subsidiaries, which makes it rather unique, whilst GOTTA produces all the mechanical equipment for the gorillas. Its subsidiaries produce other fun stuff:
Its 2 main subsidiaries are:
TOLNPACOTFOTPLNOTROG (Rolls off the tongue ) (The naval branch)
Which stands for: The Official Licensed Naval Producer And Constructor Of The People's Liberation Navy Of The Republic Of Gorillas (I know how acronyms work )
And: GorChem
Which stands for Gorilla Chemicals, which develop fertilisers, herbicides, pesticides and other chemical products.

The Forgotten
Motto: "For Chima, and the Downfall of Outland Monarchs; We Will Never Be Forgotten!"
The Forgotten are a Guerilla group of Outlanders capable of large military activities, if resources are supplied well. This faction of rebel Scorpions and Spiders are refugees of peasants from both spider and scorpion kingdoms. Said peasants were tired and fed up with their kings and queens, such heresy were committed from the 'lords' that the outlanders were traumatized. The Forgotten uses their strength and follows two Stomper Scorpion Brothers by the name of Scorion and Scrin. Ever Since they rallied up the scorpions and spiders, they conducted regular raids on armories of the two tribes, managing to steal most of the outland weapons from their HQ's. With also the help of 'faithful' scientists, the military rebellion group is armed and loaded with very destructive SCUD Stinger Missiles and have begun constructing SCUD Sites in the Iron mountains undercover and have operational ones in the outland mountain range near Black Fang Mountain, which could sour more ties with the Bats. Since they want bats in their leagues, they once tried to attack the Black Fang Mountain, which ended in a horrible casualty-ridden catastrophe as The Forgotten lost about half of their men before retreating back to their base, which is Aperture Mesa East, and hopefully, the Lion HQ.
The Forgotten sympathize for Cavora's troubles, they always think chi SHOULD be used well and wisely, plus shared. That's why Scrin is currently negotiating with King Lionel, and Scorion is heading his troops over to the Lion pastures to help defend against the pirates that are raiding it. The Inlanders would have to get used to their rough-handling in warfare, but with help of Scrin, Freeman, Vance and Scorion, the rebel outlanders will do their best to protect the inlands from the outland threat that is currently growing with Blistion and Scorm's forces getting ready to attack. As long as they get along with the inlanders, they will be Never Forgotten.
Scrin (AKA the "S-Man"): After being treated poorly in the ranks of the royal scorpion military, He deserted quickly along with his brother. The elder to Scorion, He studies and masters in governmental practices in democracy and political hierarchy, his little brother focuses on Science and Aperture Mesa's internal Corruption. A few members from the Science Facility had dropped out, a few names such as Scordon Freeman, Spalyx Vance, Barney Calhoun and Bachell. Freeman and Vance joined to support the cause of the radical outlanders to overthrow King Scorm and Queen Spilyth, they are hoping to get another top scientist by the name of Issac Sckliner to join them. Back to Scrin, He's a mysterious Stomper Scorpion that always wears a nice business suit with a blue tie, and always holds this briefcase with him always. He looks a bit elderly, and has green eyes. The Forgotten don't know what is in that briefcase, but the "S-Man" knows it well. He once tried to place Freeman in some cold-stasis chamber until a certain point of outlander aggression, but Freeman refused. Now Scrin watches over Scordon, like some sort of deity to watch over the scorpion scientist's... questionable actions. Like some sort of Psychic...
Scorion: The Brother of Scrin, A bit more bold and brash than his older brother, Scrin is the military commander of The Forgotten. He's in charge of all military actions, minus those that Scrin issues himself. Being a very good warrior himself, he's gotten away from melee weapons and focuses more on the firearms and his almost unbeatable hand-to-hand, thanks to his strong stinger tail and powerful claws. Since he likes his tail co much, he usually ghetto-wires it to most of his firearms as a sort of bayonet, using it for some melee combat if needed. Since he is usually hard-focused on military actions, he always has the SCUD Stinger Missiles launch codes on standby if needed, and is very fond of armored vehicles, even if all they have is Scout Jeeps and Stripped Muscle Cars so far for their mode of transport, he'd ordered a production line of fan-boats a while ago and it's almost done, he plans one on giving one of them Freeman to venture into the swamp if he needs to 'negotiate' with the crocs. He looks similar to his Older Brother, but he has a large beard, very hairy legs and arms, and a spiked tail, clothing resembles that of a ripped up biker-gang attire.

Even if they would surpass fighting skills of that of the Stomper Scorpion Brothers Scrin and Scorion.

OOC: Great map! other than the things jgread pointed out this map is perfect! once you make the minor changes to it maybe when it's up you can upload it to the LMBEs Gallery that was mentioned in the rules.
Nah, i think the gorge cutting into the great desert is a bit off-putting to me, plus i want the rhinos to own the Iron mountains to make the territory more simpler to me.
Actually... i take back my word, i will edit the map to make it canon again, plus if possible, i could add "The Fangs" as a topic as well. batonmaster500
And i remade the map for the outlands, like it? The J , LegoBuilder
Cool map! Only 3 small problems though: 1: The Iron Mountains aren't owned by the Rhinos. 2: The gorge of eternal depth goes across the middle of the Great Desert, not between Chima and the Outlands. 3: You forgot the Outland Mountains; they should be where the gorge is on this map.
So I think if you removed the words 'rhino territory claim', wrote 'Outland Mountains' on the brown strip where the gorge is, and made a line down the middle of the Great Desert to represent the gorge, this map would be 100% accurate.

No prob, Bob! I'll rectify those problems soon.
Good! After you do that, I might add your Outland map to Egorsmirnov's Chima map.

And guess what came on the mail today! BAM!!! Updated map, brought to you by me! Honestly, i didn't know if he gorge went through and cut the desert in half, but from what i can tell from the TV show, the depth gets higher as it gets deeper into the inlands, making the "Grand Archway" land-bridge, plus "The Fangs" in the desert territory, or as i like to call that area, "The Wastelands".

Sssoooo... how do you guys think?
Cool! I'm going to make a map of the Arctic North, and I'll attach it to your map after I'm done.

Make it detailed plz, and probs add the future sites of the Ice hunter HQ's.
Appearance: Black feathers, purple around the hands, wings and face. Radnor wears a black and purple suit with a contained CHI harness, in the form of an elegant silver symbol, rounded with curves extending past the edges. Essentially, imagine it as Razar’s, in a far more regal form. He wears full body armour, black and purple, with holster for Snypaxs at his waist, and a dual back sheath for his swords. If he wishes to go unrecognised, he wears black full leather armour and mask, with a regular CHI harness and butterfly swords.
Backstory: Radnar was a Junior Director at Talon Industries, having risen fast through the ranks. When they fell, he was able to seize control of a large number of bank accounts, placing him in an excellent position due to ravens’ love of money. The only people who know this, however, have been payed to keep their silence. He has gathered a small force of ravens, and has formed an underground resistance, all without the knowledge of the traitors now in control of the tribe.. He is ready and willing to do whatever it takes to bring down the Wings Row Monarchy and restore Talon Industries.
Weapons: Two Snypax Pulsorz blasters, twin swords (normal for ordinary use, and two Butterfly for undercover operations), and a dagger.
Personality: Cool and collected. Always has a backup plan, and spends most of his time thinking about things.
Likes: Stealing, doing business, Talon Industries.

I don't hate it, the idea that came into my head for a Raven RPC just went better with Talon Industries.
