E019 Customs Inspection (takes 1d6 hours)
As you pass through customs, you are delayed by agents looking for anyone without papers (R228), stolen goods, or items
illegal in all systems. If you are in a starship, they will search the ship (R229D). If you refuse to pay any duties (see below), or
have anything improper per above, see E080. Roll 1d6 as well, to determine which type of item has duty charges:
- 1: liquor or any type of alcoholic beverage at 5 S per CU
- 2: any vehicles (including your own ship’s boat, if present, or the starship itself!) at 5 S per vehicle
- 3: any robots at 10 S per robot
- 4: any type of ore, at 2 S per CU
- 5: any living animals or plants are contraband and will be automatically confiscated, there is no charge, and they are permanently lost
- 6: any radioactives at 10 S per CU
