The warlord Najib Khan was an intimidating man. Tall, barrel chestted and with a perpetual scowl. He stands in a cave, somewhere along the Afghan border. Around him crates piled to the ceiling filled with a Sultan’s fortune in white gold, opium. With the new irrigation and agricultural equipment being installed he had to pull up some fields and try to cut his losses. By a lucky stroke, or perhaps the hand of God, the market has become flooded with weapons, the remnants of two European powers collapsing. “I have fulfilled my end of the bargain trader. Where are the guns?”
Afghan Warlord Najib Khan is trading his recently liquidated stock of opium for maxim machine guns and Lee-Enfields to equip his lashkars.

ALexander pulled up im his truck. As he saw the afgan warlord and opened the back of his truck. 5,000 Maxium Machineguns where just sitting there and enough ammo to blow Germany in half. He looked over at the opium Then at the Khan.

Najib Kahn looks over the weapons with his hardened scowl, and silently nods his approval. With no pomp or ceremony he waves his hand to dismiss the Greek trader and his newly aquired narcotic. The deal has been done.
The weapons will be distributed to Najib's personal Lashkars and distributed to the other tribes of Afghanistan by trade.

The small rodent was in a corner while listening to the trader's conversations. He watched as the Afghan man stood there with crates piled up as he waited for man with the machine guns. Just then a truck pulled up with a good number of Machine guns. Then he herd the man say something in Arabic, with a slight Greek acent.
"5,000 Machine guns, enough to blow Germany in half."
The rat opened his eyes with disbelief, in fact, this was his first facial expression of disbelief, in fact, it was the first of the rat species. Mainly because the fact of the Greek army alone wouldn't be able to make such a trade, or a Greek civilian at that matter. How the Greek got from Greece to Afghanistan, the rat doesn't know. Why they believe a mere 5,000 machine guns is enough to blow Germany in half, is beyond the rat's comprehension.
"They must be fake" The rat thought, before continuing on sniffing the insides of this cave filled with lies.
OOC: Also, 5,000 maxim machine guns in the back of one truck?

Germany, I'm selling every machinegun that isn't on the Fiats. I have fought 4 wars so far. Japan, Eithopia, Italy and Bulgeria. I have lot of them, the one truck was a sample of the guns. You can't pull all of them in to the damn cave. After the Bulgerians where destroyed I got most of their guns. I also produce them, because they are fixed to my fiats. In OCC i negotiated the trade through Ottoman then through arabia and then through Persia. I was just using a figure of speech to discribe how much ammo there was like a medifore

OOC: Yep, worked it out with Ottoman and Britain, because they were easy to get ahold of at the time. Didn't mean to cut you out of the loop, but I'm juggling enough stuff as it is and didn't want to leave it waiting too long.
