Sins And Sin Checks

SINS

When making a legal purchase, you have to attach a SIN number to the item. This shall be noted on the voucher by the GM that handles the equipment queue for you.

If you are using a Real SIN no test is needed, but you better take good care of the gear, because if its used on a crime, that's evidence against you. If buying legally with a fake SIN, a test shall be done following the table below:

Value	Credstick Check Rating
1-5,000 =Y=	2
5,001 - 20,000 =Y=	4
20,001 - 200,000 =Y=	6
200,001 - 500,000 =Y=	8
500,001 =Y= +	10
