Re: Krynnspace and Palanthas spaceport

Steel vs. Gold in Krynnspace?

This was my personal fix:

The Palanthus portmaster handles a money exchange system.  I had economic 
rules set in which the import of large supplies of steel and large exports 
of gold were contraband, or at least HIGHLY taxed.

I had one group of PCs work for the port authority as corsairs.  One of 
their prime resons for stopping and boarding outgoing ships was to search 
them for large supplies of steel and or gold.  Punsihment was confiscation 
of the entire cargo, which was used to fund port activities.  I had an NPC 
who worked as a go-between between the corsairs and the rulers of the city.

Seems to me that I read that landing a SJ anywhere on Ansalon except the 
Palanthus port was forbidden.  I ran a few adventures where the PC 
corsairs had to track down smugglers of gold and steel, and ships that 
wanted to land elsewhere.

Here's how it went:

In my campaign, a young lady by the name of Stacia Lionsmane (Yes, his 
Granddaughter) is the Captain of "The Liberty", a White Squidship in the 
service of Palanthus, and the Star Knights.  She is a Knight of Solamnia 
and her ship was "aquired" in one of her exploits.  She is the leader of 
what fleet Palanthus has managed to come up with, and one of her duties is 
to diligently search vessels for steel and gold that has not gone through 
the Palanthus Port Customs.  

I've got a whole crew and stats and what not.

Easy fix in my campaign.....what do you guys think?
