• The ammo being turned in has to be made by the player themselves.
• You can end the mission at each return visit to Drusus Cauponius. He will ask if you wish to continue.
• When you are doing this mission with a JE-driver, you can also pick-up Merus Milia Cleanup on each leg for extra Faction/Credits/XP
• Can be combined with Picking Up The Slack, it visits the same locations but requires 10 (or 5 with Polar Express) cargo slots
