Availability

Some items are more common than others. To represent this, each piece of equipment has an availability rating of Common, Uncommon, Rare or Exotic.

Common items are assumed to be freely available at most stations or colonies with any degree of commerce. Uncommon and Rare items, however, at the GM’s discretion, may require a successful Streetwise test to locate. The GM is free to assign a ⊕ or ⊖ to the test for larger or smaller settlements, respectively. Failure means that you were unable to locate the item for sale, but may try again next week. Exotic items are particularly rare and are only available at the discretion of the GM. See the table below.

Availability	Test	# for Sale
Common	Freely available	Many
Uncommon	Streetwise-10	1d10
Rare	Streetwise-12	1
Exotic	Determined by GM	1
