We’ve come to the last two major weapons manufacturers in the world of CrimeCraft. One would think the game world couldn’t take much more lead or shrapnel, but where there’s a “boom,” there’s always a bigger “boom” to look out for…
Black Sea Armaments
A world-renowned military weapons manufacturer, Black Sea Armaments has roots in the Cold War Soviet Union, and to this day, it retains the vestiges of that era’s military tradition. Always drawing its leadership from military heroes of the Slavic states, Black Sea Armaments has focused on honoring the proud traditions of the armies who have fought to protect the lands around the Black Sea for centuries. The company has been famous for many weapons throughout its history, but today it is known for crafting some of the best core military hardware in the world, including assault rifles, LMGs and rocket launchers.
Based in Odessa, Ukraine, BSA is currently led by retired Major General Anatoli Vasnychikov, the most famous of the Ukrainian generals who resisted an attempted coup against the democratic government by a resurgent Communist movement fomented by the Chinese ten years ago. Gen. Vasnychikov was the commander of the military force in Odessa and fought to keep the headquarters and production facilities of BSA from falling into the hands of the enemy. After securing the city from the insurgent forces, he also led the march to Kiev, personally commanding the force which stormed the city and routed the attempted usurpers.
Since becoming leader of the company, Gen. Vasnychikov has focused on ensuring that the long-held traditions of honor and courage are upheld, and he personally involves himself in the design of most new weapons. Additionally, he has involved BSA in political and military crises around the world, morphing the firm into a quasi-security force, almost as much as a weapons manufacturer and wielding almost as much power as some nations unto themselves.
Valley Forge Armaments
A take-no-prisoners, nationalistic American company, Valley Forge Armaments has built a reputation for crafting high-quality weapons with the best materials, with a throwback design aesthetic. VFA was founded as a small gunsmith in the early years of American independence, and remained a small, family run enterprise for two hundred years. In that time, they steadily built a reputation for crafting high quality shotguns, assault rifles and sniper rifles.
However, the small family based nature of the company would change after a series of attacks on American soil. In response to the growing threat they perceived from both without and within the country, the New York based firm decided that it would step up its production, offering its elite, hand-crafted quality to the US military at a steep discount over other companies. This effort quickly enabled them to grow in importance and power, and they have used this to their advantage. Further, like the far away Black Sea Armaments, CEO Steven Greyson decided that weapon manufacturing would not be enough; he began developing local militias around the United States, who were sworn to protect the country against any hostile threat by any means necessary.
Valley Forge and its CEO both have a reputation for being ultranationalistic, but it is uncertain that this is part of a company mythos, or a true political alignment. Seeing as the company apparently has little issue with some foreign governments making use of their weapons, it is an open question as to whether VFA and Mr. Greyson put profits or homeland first. Regardless of the true motives of the company, there is one thing that is abundantly clear: VFA is focused to making top quality weapon hardware, and will proudly stamp a “Made in the USA” symbol on it.
Eight firms. Dozens of weapons. And a legion of gangs to use them on… Keep an eye on this blog for more information on the world of CrimeCraft, its denizens, and the weapons that seek to tear them to pieces.
