Question, game but not rules related.
So, for those with active and imaginative minds, stick the kettle on and
make me a cuppa-tea while you think of a nice solution to my problem. -
Spike says that dried leaves taste nice, though not if they come from a
tree.
(PS, I have GM permission to ask).
You're a foreigner, in a foreign country, during an investigation in
that country, you discover 14.5m in gold inside the walls of a
fridge/freezer.
The country has archaic regulations regarding import/export, customs is
pretty tight. Security is pretty extreme, with a large number of
restrictions. The biggest downer is the gold doesn't actually,
technically, reall, sort of belong to you, and you sort of know who it
might belong to.
How do you get it out of the country with the least amount of trouble,
and back into your home country?
>>
You go to a large number of banks and convert the gold into cred in small
amounts. Take some and have it made into jewelry, or anything else commonly
made of gold. Sell it on the black market. Pawn some of it. Basically,
convert it into things Customs won't have a problem with, then ship the
larger gold items home, unless of course this gold was recently stolen and
they are looking for it. Find a crazed street mechanic(tm) and have it
melted down.
Wait a minute. I jsut did some checking and that's several tons in gold.
That's one huge fridgee. Leave the gold, report the location and hope for a
decent reward, unless of course the foks who own it want to kill you, in
which case, swipe as mch as you can smuggle out and ship the rest to a church
tagged as an anonymous donation.
Later-
