Are Human organs contraband

If cats always land on thier feet. What would happen if you strap 2 cats back to back and drop them?
Probably destroy space and time.

Im not sure Greb, i did a mission where you have to kill a rogue and destroy the human organs loot, but i never tractored it in. I always blew up the stuff before i tried to take it.

I tried to tractor in stuff like human organs. But if you do, they always appears where they were when you tractored them. So if could only destroy them

Could have sold them for a nice price ...

I know, that you know, that I know, that you know, that I really don't know what I'm talking about...

that's it? one item of contraband that FEELS like contraband?? and how does one smuggle things? If it's to be a "true" sequel (or something that passes for a joke of one on USENET) to Privateer there must be some way of spoofing police scans, not to mention some kind of variety in contraband beyond "there be arties!"

hehehe greb, you spave time destruciont machine as I knew it, had a cat with a buttered toaset sticked on its back and drop that on a carpet... the cat always falls on its legs and the tast always on the buttered side...

Okay, let me get this straight. The one decent comparison to Privateer and you're telling me all we get is one lousy contraband market item? (i don't consider arties to be contraband no matter how you dress it up and call it ghey)

You're also telilng me the OTHER cool bit about privateer (being able to spoof police scans) is impossible? hahaha

It get's dumber and dumber, doesn't it? I'll bet you folks reply with "but it's not privateer" and then i'll have to reply with "yeah, but i liked freeform"

Hey, MajorFreak, I see your LAST post was exactly the same as the one you just posted. Obviously no one felt like replying to you so you decided to post again to try to stir up more trouble on a dead topic. I would like to see more contraband articles as well, such as slaves etc. I'm sure that someone will mod the list and make more contraband items.

Yer give it a chance man it aint even out yet

My guess is that what is considered illegal depends on what system you're in. For example, the New York system produces light arms and I wouldn't be surprised if another system wouldn't take kindly to you smuggling weapons to their outlaws (or in-laws for that matter!). And the Liberty Rouge couldn't care less about scanning your cargo for contraband, they would however scan it for valubles that they could take of your hands...

Also, the reason you could not tractor the human organs was because it was your mission to destroy it and therefore you can't tractor it. I've had no trouble tractoring cargo, but I couldn't tractor the nuclear device (and I really could have used that...) because I was on a mission to destroy it.

Anyways, let's just wait for the game to come out in a couple of days and I'm sure that they could change that stuff with a patch if they feel they need too.
