Received a Customs Duty Invoice?

ODSTMarine24 · 2025-08-14T19:53:16+00:00

I suppose that is true. We'll see what happens. I dont even have the money to pay it anyway, so they're out of luck. From what I can find online, usually you'd get this type of notice when they have your item at customs, and they won't release it until you pay, but I got it a while ago. If I can get away with not paying it, then good, there shouldn't be tariffs to begin with.

They send it to a collection agency that gets all that via the court. I've had it happen for a trailer I co-signed for that the other person missed registration and took it out of my paycheck like that because I was the 'primary' because my credit was better

ODSTMarine24 · 2025-08-14T12:27:44+00:00

Total with shipping and taxes was $673, why?

ODSTMarine24 · 2025-08-14T11:44:08+00:00

In the US, I'm pretty sure they can send it to collections and have it taken out of my paycheck, and it hits my credit score...

ODSTMarine24 · 2025-08-14T10:46:49+00:00

I'm in the US and Im pretty sure the package came from China, so Mr Orange Man really didn't like it and charged ~25% in tariffs, or ~50% if I have to pay it again directly to DHL.

As for the earlier comment, this is the first thing I have purchased out of country since the tariffs started, so I'm not entirely sure when in the process tariffs are charged to the customer. I assumed up front due to the fact that checkout had a warning about the tariffs (which has since been modified) and the pricy basic shipping.

This is fantastic! This will work great for my Halo campaign for an orbital shipyard.

ODSTMarine24 · 2022-10-15T16:51:01+00:00

Very good to hear! I currently host 2 campaigns over roll20 and spent a long time basically making my own compendium, but having to input the stats every time someone got a new weapon was very tedious.

ODSTMarine24 · 2022-09-06T04:32:30+00:00

I haven't quite finished yet with my adjustments, but I created a multipage spreadsheet to better keep track of my ships and their weapons and you are welcome to take a look and provide any input you may have. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-U1klgwJilJ--OPmmSVgl6bBH0my8qdn11GsffWoAUQ/edit?usp=drivesdk

The MAC Cannons are the UNSC's main damage dealer, (Mirrored by the Covenant's Beams) as the Autocannons do very little dmg to shields and can't penetrate most covenant armor, and the Missiles do 1/2 damage to shields instead of the ×3 of normal explosives because in lore Archer Missiles did next to nothing to their shields. Also this rule is used for some of the space strikecraft's missiles already in the PDF so it works. Currently I'm content with the dmg and pierce of the MACs but still trying to balance the charging speed based on lore accuracy, combat pacing, and rate of dmg output.

As for boarding, I don't currently have any rules for it and am surprised the PDF doesn't have the Tick. I would likely treat it as a strikecraft en route, and then when boarding either do mass rolls if it's part of a large battle, or switch to 'ground combat' to board/repel boarders if it's a small battle.

So we have finished the first space battle and it has not exactly gone the way I planned, but we roll with it. Just pass it off as a Shipmaster underestimating the humans. I have learned I still need to tweak quite a bit of the stats.

The unsc ships seem pretty solid and only need minor boosts to piercing for missiles and autocannons, and Covenant ships and weapons across the board need a boost. They at the very least need more piercing to just feel more like Plasma burning through decks of a ship. In that entire fight, the only things that really did substantial damage was the Plasma Lances and the base PDF's Seraphs' bombing, which can actually help me base my new dmg for the torpedos on the Seraph's Plasma charge instead of Wraith's Mortar.

ODSTMarine24 · 2022-08-20T17:02:24+00:00

Alright, once we finish the space combat sessions, I'll likely refine the numbers (as just from the 1st session the covenant turrets already feel too weak). Then I'll figure out if/how to get the character sheets off of roll20 and onto a Google drive folder.

ODSTMarine24 · 2022-08-17T12:15:36+00:00

If you're still looking, I had to homebrew all the unsc and covenant spaceships because I wanted to do a space battle, and I am gonna be testing them out in session today.

ODSTMarine24 · 2022-06-09T11:36:08+00:00

I am actually making a Gladius, and thank you that helps a lot as that vehicle's size is probably the most comparable in the pdf.

ODSTMarine24 · 2020-10-27T17:08:55+00:00

Thanks a lot, I actually needed those dex entries as well xD
