My master the Duke requests me to ask if you are willing to send examples of your contraptions and clockworks to the Ducal court as divertisments and possible mercantile commodities.
My master is most interested in clockwork instruments of war.
I look forward to your earliest answer

Dear Meister Ludwig,
The closest thing we have to instruments of war are toy soldiers, but we will dispatch a trade representative with exemplar contraptions and other devices.
The same offer is of course extended to all other nations interested in trade relations with the Soweiter League.
If I can locate some of the plans or etchings I will post them as well.
Thank you for your interest.
Your humble servant,
Zurik Fitz-Badger,
Minister at Large,
The Soweiter League
