Stop chewing your cud.

Seriously though what were you thinking for your smuggler? Or give me an idea and I'll throw you a ship.

Cause, you know, pirate invested galaxy.

Also, has the exchange rate of credits changed that much? Cause everybody in this RP is really dirt poor. :p

Mandalore has a fair bits in total, but we're pretty self sufficient anyway.

That's a good ship, It's still not the fastest. Pretty much as useful as one of the ones I recommended actually... it just comes down to cosmetics in that case :P

If Cale is good with it I'm good with it.

Oh for the likes of the Sith? Definitely. I mean you're best bet is to take charge of the Empire (Republic, huedehue), Mandalorians or DFT somehow.

I think I'll manage, gimme time to get droid factories up and my shipyards rebuilt.

Then, Mandalorian Empire here we come.

-evillaugh-

... The Empire still exists?

Zarianna is gonna be pissed. Mucked about for eight years when she could've blown a Moff and been empress by now. Shiiit.

A young slave would never be able to afford this. It is too well armed and the extensive cargo space make it rarely ever affordable. When you were adopted it was the only time you were able to actually gain credits. And as a youngling with guardians you had no reason to need credits, therefore your largest sum of credits saved was not that large. Which is why which ever freighter you're getting it will have old and rusted systems and the hyperdrive will always act up. Because of these issues, you could afford it. Not saying they are permanent. After the timeskip, you can have them all fixed. But it'd be really funny if after that the hyperdrive would sometimes, in the worst moments, act up and require a quick recharging xD

Everyone is poor because all the banks have been destroyed, leaving people with only the credits in their pockets. While some flourished because they had trillions in their pockets, some did not. Which is why there are smaller organizations rising up. I don't think we need inflation, either. But what this also means is that everything is extremely cheaper than what it was before. A couple hundred credits could probably buy you a little land and a house now, depending on the area. And an example of back on Taris in KotOR, Davik was one of the richest fuckers on the planet as a solo man with his Exchange, but he himself still could not afford a ship of his own, and even when he did, it still wasn't bigger than 3-4 TIE fighters. And he was rich, so, yeah.

In eight years of smuggling, she couldn't have saved up for a craft that actually works? Cause The Light struck a few months after she started and apparently it's almost been a decade since then. :P

With living expenses such as consumables, fuel, repairs, restock, ammunition, if Sep really thinks you could have saved up over 50k, then we will talk, but only then.

Also, you don't need a tongue in every single post, it's starting to ache at me.

[Asura]

Even in a galaxy where everyone is poor, surely in the span of eight years she could've bartered her way into getting some ship upgraded instead of money. It just seems incredibly lame that a decades worth of work nets you 700 credits and a ship that barely worked when you got it and still barely functions.

It depends how said ship was acquired in this sense Cale. You're assuming it was bought, and if it was bought that it was brought brand new OR for full price.
Rather than take up the OOC Asura if you want we can discuss how you got such a fine ship, when and what kinda condition it's in in PM or in the IRC thats in my sig. If that works for you.

Aside from that, if you're smuggling, you're getting resources to someone illegally, and the pirates won't give you credits, they'd give you your life. If you travel within the pirate territory, they don't care who you are, they feel like they own you. And the only people would be illegal to smuggle to from DFT standpoint is Sith or Empire or the BHG, which means you'd be hunted in both Pirate and DFT territory, whiuch might mean you're hunted by BHG in general. If you were smuggling for DFT you'd be smuggling information, and DFT wouldn't give you much compared to Empire either, and the Sith are poor. If you were allies with DFT or even the BHG, you'd need a freighter license or bounty hunting license within DFT territory, without it, you'd again be hunted down. Not killed, but charge, unless you did something unruly. But if you couldn't pay the credit fine, items would be taken from you. This is all food for thought for everyone.

The 700 was after you purchased your entire ship assuming you purchased it. I was trying to be generous but then again you don't seem to understand the entire roleplay so it's okay.
