' Wrote:15 years have passed since the campaign. Things may have changed.
Bounty Hunter NPC's have access to Alaska, so it'd be pretty hard to say it's not in BH RP to go there.
They could get the codes from the Lane Hackers, former Ageira employees who know all about Tradelane and Gate Technology and are capable of hacking gates. Sounds feasible.

The notion of the Lane Hackers being able to poke at the Alaska gate in order to get the boulder to roll aside the opening 'o that particular cave is something that I've pondered on.
I can't help but feel that, should they be inclined to do so, it would take a little more effort than anticipating the cargo and timing of the next group of transports running down the pipe.
Not to say that it's necessarily beyond their capabilities, but I reckon it would take a little more effort than some smug computer nerd flipping a data disk at you with the most secure gate in Sirius' security code's... The word escapes me... At any rate, the ability for you to simply crack the gate at will to pass on through with your tradeship or what-have-you.
I'd imagine it'd be a somewhat involved affair for them to grab the codes, something a bit more hands on than your little bribe could likely afford. Especially for the 'never been captured alive' faction to risk.
My thoughts anyways, can't say as they carry much weight when discussing a faction that's not my own.
