> profiteering

Syntax:
profiteering
Usable by: Merchant (level 20)
Cooldown: 4 hours ("war profiteering")

High Mortal merchants know that the galaxy is a hostile place, and that hostilities come with an opportunity for enormous profit. Not shy about making a credit from the suffering of others, less scrupulous merchants are able to push belligerent actors over the edge into open conflict. These battlegrounds will create lucrative contracts for merchant corporations no matter the victor.

Once profiteering has been engaged, transports will land near one of these flashpoints. Players will have five minutes to board one if they wish to participate in the battleground.
