seriously? indy 5? isnt that a bit too much to be reasonable? i mean, msot people arent gonna put off ~50 days just to be able to have "resistance" to customs scannings. i mean, its a rank 4 skill goddammit.
i kno that almost everyone worth their salt uses iteron MK v's, but there are also people who are just doing agnetmissions that arent going to spend that much training time on indy 5 just for the hell of it.


God forbid, you might actually have to take advantage of courier missions, and allow someone else with specialised skills to do something you cannot do for you. Interact? Me?Embarassed

But that's different. In that case, we have a standard vehicle that simply happens to have been used for smuggling; there's no inherent quality in a Ford Escort that makes it preferred by smugglers. In what I'm talking about, there is a standard transport vehicle and a vehicle that looks exactly like it but has something which makes it really good for smuggling. Hence customs would be more suspicious towards vehicles that look like that, wouldn't they?


Not really - if every race's indy has a smuggling equivalent, what are they going to do. Search every indy more? You are correct there are standard transport vehicles and vehicles that look exactly like it that can smuggle. Unfortunately for customs, every transport vehicle has this equivalent. What are you going to do now?

Er, sure, but as I understand it the issue at hand concerns a single special smuggling-specialized ship, not a "smuggler version" of every indy.
