Acquiring Equipment without Purchase (R223B)
Certain events may allow you to find intact or damaged equipment without spending money. In addition, if you defeat
others in combat, you may take any equipment or valuables they have (indicated in the event), assuming it wasn’t damaged
or destroyed in battle. Damaged equipment that you can move can also be taken.
You take prisoners after combat only if so indicated in the event paragraph. Otherwise, those who are not killed are assumed
to escape.
Each person you encounter will have "pocket change" in Secs equal to a 1d6 cross-indexed with the system’s wealth code on
table R241. Ignore any fractional Secs of pocket change. In other words, pocket change is base price of 1 S times multiplier
given on that table.
