Hmmm, that honestly seems like a alot of money for relativly little in exchange and some rather pointless limitations. Thanks for your honesty, but its starting to look like crossfire is not the place for us.

You know I'm new here but I can't help having the thought, wouldn't the type of ship be about the ONLY thing a scanner would pick up?

And "spoils RP" is an easy fix. Just because you know something, dosn't mean your character does.

I have a few of my own questions. I was thinking of getting some people togather and starting a clan, or sorts. But we would be, VERY, RP heavy. And we would have the same issue as the TC. The clan would be split into three distinct factions. The Muscle, a pirate and/or merc group that guards the shipments and kills the rivals. The Smugglers, who maintiane a legitmet face (while I'm being open about it out-of-character, in RP they would deny being smugglers). And the Cartel, who orchastrates the whole operation but rarely actually gets their hands dirty (and who, in RP, not that many people might know even exists).

The thing is, as the structure is set up, in RP these three factions wouldn't actually seem to have much to do with each other. The mercs are not known to actually be one and the same with the smugglers, and its not public knowledge the Cartel even exists, much less is pulling all the strings. How would this type of situation be resolved? I know we could all just be the same clan, but would others play along with the ruse in RP or would people "quickly figer it out" because they all have the same tag which no one could actually see in RP?

Also, if I where to purchuse a system, how much customization would I get with it? Can I name my own system, could I request where it is located, do we have our own trade goods and could we have any custome content such as ships or trade goods? Would it be possible to have a say what NPCs, if any, spawn in this system? Or do we just get a system assigned to us and get to say we are in charge?

When I say "Pirate" I mean more blowing stuff up and stealing other peoples **** honestly. Not taxing. The reason is in the story these smugglers are actually rather violent. In case it's not obvious this would be something of a clan, in the columbian cartel model. While mechanicly their thing would be delivering BMG from point A to B, RPingly they'd be an ultra violent splinter group of outcasts (though the violence itself would also be in story mostly. The violence would be more on the ground then in space).

Which brings me back to another question, are the outcasts still around in CF? Still the only actual source of Cadamine and secretly controling the drug trade in Sirius?

I was thinking of joining and becoming a smuggler, but I had a couple of questions first.

It seems there are special rules for smugglers, what with needing liscenes and such. Exactly how would this work? If I started a smuggling ring could they also dabble in piracy, or is it more that I'd be at the mercy of every pirate and cop and I see and have to pay protection money to both?

Are there Outcasts on this server? I was thinking of stealing the plot from an old fanfic I wrote and it basicly involves being an Outcast Cardamin smuggler.
