 ==== Food and Drink ====
 In a galaxy as diverse and varied as ours it is next to impossible to list all the delightful dishes and drinks you may come across. However, the Lavian Tree Grub and Lavian Chardonnay come highly recommended. With regards to the Lavian wine always ensure that you ask for white chardonnay as opposed to the red variety. These two drinks are poles apart! Other foods to lookout for are Thrumpberry flavoured items and deep fried trumble (The Ontiat system is probably the best for BBQ trumble - try it for yourself).

Systems have to enter a "world" team (made up of the best players in their system) for qualification. This prestigious tournament, held every four years, is the number one event and this year, Zaonce have qualified for the first time in over 70 years.

 ==== Communications ====
-Most communications are conducted via the Holo-fac facility and all space faring vessels are equiped with this communications unit. As long as you have a name, home planet and valid ID reference code for the person you wish to contact the Holo-fac facility can be used for an unlimited time with no cost to the user. [For further details of how GalComm can provide this service at no charge to you then it is advisable to read the GalComm enquiry of 3002]

 ==== Planetside ====
-Should you wish to visit a planet you must first obtain a visa from the appropriate authorities on the space station and rent a shuttle craft. These can be quite expensive and charges are ususally applied on a daily basis. Never attempt to trade with a planet's inhabitants whether they be your species or not. Onworld trade is strictly forbidden and drastic measures will be take (pilot's license revoked, 35 year prison sentence minimum).
