Factors such as the unstable political environment and the proliferation of space pirates, made ​​the space an unsafe place, a place where now the solitary journeys are considered risky business. Whole star systems are now cut off from traditional supply routes and are on the verge of collapse. Of adventurers who are not afraid to break some rules may profit from this situation, pulling the cargo of supplies to these sensitive areas. But if you hope to survive, you must have quick reflexes, you must be witty and be able to quickly pull his gun blaster, the life of a Smuggler is a continuing challenge.
