I don't have the book in front of me, but I remember us going through a list of modifiers (number of parsecs, type of worlds, etc) adding that and roll 2D6 to see how many lots of freight were available. You did this three times, once for each size (major, minor, incidental). A bit tedious but it's okay. And then it suggested rolling to determine how many tons each lot were. The thing is that when we played it, the 2D6 gave us something like twenty-seven major lots available. There's no way they're asking me to roll twenty-seven times to determine the size of each lot.I asked around, most of the answers I had from experienced players were "yep, that's it". Most told me to roll it in advance, or use some online tools. And a minority of people told me they were rolling once for all the Major cargos and it was the size of all major cargos, which seemed to be counter to what the system is trying to achieve (cargos of different sizes and having to make decisions).</blockquote>
