Sealed Order chip

On some occasions, a member of the United Stars Military might receive a portion of their orders in the form of a Sealed Order Chip. This is help to ensure secrecy in an operation that the member might be participate in.

There are three basic type of sealed orders based on the conditions that need to exist before they can open the chip (after properly identifying themselves according to the security classification of those orders):
 * Those that can be opened only during a certain time frame.
 * Those that can only be opened in a specific region of space.
 * Those that are only to be opened when a certain condition occurs.

It's not uncommon for any two or even all three conditions needing to be met simultaneously for the orders to be unsealed.
