- Hostages(There could be versions for each house, i.e. Libertonian hostage)
Not everyone captured by a pirate is killed. No, most are held at ransom for cash. And then killed, if their family doesn't pay up.
- Monitoring Devices It's a fact of humanity that some people are more curious than others. And some of these people might go to unusual lengths to satisfy their curiousity, by trying to learn things people don't want them to know.
Hostages? Well that's kina what Slaves are and seeing some person lining up hostages to be sold as a commodity is like watching the Airplane movie where they sold various bombs and hijacking equiptment before boarding. Funny but just odd.
Monitoring devices were what I had in mind for "covert Devices." In the hands of house police and military, its "legal" in anyone elses hands, it could be considered illegal. AKA a Daumann transport with cover devices would be seen as hostile, more so, to the Independent Miners Guild and Bretonia Mining and Manufacturing, or other indy miners.
With semi general commodities like "light Arms" I cant sell "ammunition" or concealed weapons. Even Black Market Munitions covers most if not all "illegal" ship-based weapons or devices that would be seen as illegal by house factions. I can make commodities up the wazoo, but I have never seen anyone transport "water" or "Oxygen" so making items that are the nuts and bolts of Freelancer may be fun to see but not practical for a money making commodity.
Illegal commodities are tough, but not impossible to think of. More to come.
Sometimes, when all you want is to gain your freedom, you must be willing to risk it all.
