"The 'Exotic Ships & Weapons License' is the most expensive and the most sought-after license, as it gives you access to all of the outfits classified by the Federation Navy as requiring a license. The small hunched man before you grumpily informs you that his work will fool even the most capable sensor sweep by Federation interceptors."
Useless forged licenses can be purchased at Altia (Altair), Harbor (Scheall), Port Kane (Kania), Simpson (Aldebaran), Misfire (Trishka), Menin (Lesten), Latin (Heraan Sa), Heraan Prime (Heraan), Houseless (Kipa) and New Ireland (Tuatha).
This outfit represents the possibility of being stung by a Federal investigator when attempting to purchase a forged license. This outfit is removed after purchase.
When this outfit is purchased, it deletes all legitimate licenses you may own, including legitimate Exotic licenses. In addition, it immediately starts an auto-aborting mission that takes away 50% of your cash supply. It appears as if this mission was meant to display the following text, but at least on WinNova, it does not display and the player is left with no feedback as to what happened.

| The small hunched man suddenly straightens and looks you straight in the eye.
"Captain <PN>," he says in stern tone, "I am an investigator for the Federation Ship Licensing Registrar, and you have just bought an illegal license. The punishment for such a violation of our regulations is a fine that totals fifty percent of your known savings and a revocation of any other licenses you might have. "In future," he continues dismissively, "I would suggest you think twice about flouting the rules. "Have a nice day." |
