While working on refining the Random Job Generator , I came up with this "What the players are moving" list - and then expanded it with everything I could think of. The chart itself is simple, roll a D100, consult the table. If there's a footnote after the item, consult the lower chart and roll a setback die. If the setback die comes up a threat (ignore failure), the more illicit aspect of the item comes into play - a fact the captain moving the cargo may not know about.

(3) The organic material was infested with pests, which now inhabit the ship

(4) The items are controlled such as stormtrooper blasters or armor

(5) The item has been recalled or is otherwise unhealthy

(6) The supplies are military grade quality and potentially restricted (or could raise flags at customs)

(7) The items are bootleg knockoffs

(8) The artifacts are forbidden or restricted, such as Jedi related items

(9) The items are forgeries

Very cool. This could be of great use! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Desslok. Your stuff is always so useful. Just curious, why no 001?

Wait - holy crap. I screwed up the numbering!

See, this is why I need editors. I didn't even notice the lack of 1 - and all my notes are at work. I wonder what I had there. . . ..

***EDIT***

There - I added my one hundredth cargo item!

Brilliant stuff. Lots of adventure ideas to be had there, I got a few just from skimming through it.

Excellent work, man! I've already thought of a dozen uses for this list.

Now if we could make it a browser-based generator...

EDIT: Also, that link to the Random Job Generator just leads back out into the GM forums. Was that supposed to be pointed at a particular topic?

Does it? Bah! Phooey - I thought I fixed that. Hang on. . . .

Okay, fixed it (I think). If it breaks in the future, here's where it was pointing to: http://community.fantasyflightgames.com/index.php?/topic/89435-the-random-job-generator/

Found this thread in my browser history - and man did I have a ton of typos. Why did you people not say anything to me!

All fixed now. . . .

Nice list. I would suggest that some of the more dangerous goods also have some complications. For example....weapons grade radioactives? I'm preeety sure that's going to raise some red flags if the contract isn't from someone legit (read: Not the empire)

This looks pretty helpful, I'm gonna have to use it in my games.

Thanks!!

Glad to know I'm not the only one who creates Edge of the Empire material at work

That's the nice thing about Onedrive, I can get to my campaign notes no matter where I am or what device I'm working on...

this is great!

thanks for sharing!

....aaaaand... swiped!

great work, Desslok, and thank you...

Here's a visual redux of the generator...
Thanks, Desslok, for giving this your stamp of approval!
