"Cardamine...Everybody wants Cardamine”


Outcasts always relied on individual Outcast pilots, foreign pirates and smugglers to transport their precious Cardamine and thus expand their Orange Dream. Then a man with a vision arrived, a man that would unite the Outcast Individuals that would primarily transports Cardamine into the major houses bringing slaves and other essential goods back into the Outcast core systems thus forming the Maltese Shipping. This man was Vincente Andolini, a hardened smuggler of Cardamine and a well famous slaver. At first Maltese Shipping found itself lacking support from the Maltese dons due to a common belief that a shipping company could never succeed in transporting Cardamine, as it would draw too much attention. Against all odds Vincente and his loyal supporters did not give up, instead they spent a few years of successful smuggling and have proven the Maltese dons wrong, finally getting approved in 815 A.S as the first successful Outcast trading company.


Operation Customs

Utilizing a wide array of transportation vessels varying from the smallest freighters to the largest transports, employing top security, ensured a large success rate. Using the routes where the lawful forces of the houses wouldn’t even think of looking for them and holding close bonds with the major houses unlawful populations, provided them with a stealth-like style of operations. If by any chance a Maltese Shipping pilot would be caught, he would deny that he was a member of a such company and that it even existed. Roughly making millions of Sirius credits every month, the Maltese Shipping brings a great amount of profit to the Commonwealth and of course – itself…

Goals and Actions

The primary goal of the MSI is the export of Cardamine to all major houses [color=#CC0000](//except gallia)). The prices of Cardamine in many houses might be low but as the addiction rate grows, so do the prices. Many houses have more lawful and unlawful resistance then others, making our jobs harder or easier by comparison.


LIBERTY

[color=#33CCFF]Shipping Cardamine to Liberty proves to be the most profitable and a semi-safe run and it's done on a regular basis and more frequently than the other houses.


Friendly Forces: Liberty Rogues, Lane Hackers.
Neutral Forces/Unfriendly Forces: Junkers
Hostile Forces: Liberty Navy, Liberty Police Inc. , Xenos, Cryer Pharmaceuticals, Bounty Hunters Guild, Other Liberty Corporations.

BRETONIA

Shipping Cardamine to Bretonia is considered semi-safe due to a large presence of Gaians and Corsairs. Due to the semi-legal Cardamine status in Bretonia makes it poorly controlled by the authorities and easy to transport around.

Friendly Forces: Mollys
Neutral Forces/ Unfriendly Forces: Junkers, Bretonia Armed Forces, Bretonia Police Authority, Bretonia Corporations.
Hostile Forces: Gaians, Corsairs, Bounty Hunters Guild.

KUSARI

[color=#FFFFFF]Shipping Cardamine to Kusari is considered highly dangerous outside the system of Kyushu. The Corsair Allies - Farmers Alliance and Hogosha tend to take drastic measures in order to eliminate the Cardamine presence, while the Blood Dragons barely tolerate us outside the protection of our allies the Golden Chrysanthemums.


Friendly Forces: Golden Chrysanthemums.
Neutral Forces/ Unfriendly Forces: Blood Dragons.
Hostile Forces: Hogosha, Farmers Alliance, Corsairs, Samura Heavy Industries, Kusari Naval Forces, Kusari State Police and other Kusari Corporations.


RHEINLAND

[color=#33CC00]Shipping Cardamine to Rheinland is dangerous and unprofitable due to rigorous controls by the Police and Military.


Friendly Forces: Red Hessians
Neutral Forces/ Unfriendly Forces: Unioners, Bundschuh, LWB.
Hostile Forces: Rheinland Military, Rheinland Federal Police, Bounty Hunters Guild.



MSI tends to give out land loans to ex-slaves that have earned their freedom with hard work and dedication, serving as an example to others. The land loans are there to give the ex-slaves a jump starts, and an opportunity to farm Cardamine grasses giving a share to the MSI and keeping a share for themselves. Currently the MSI has approved 23 land loans with 20/23 plantations are operational and producing Cardamine grasses. The most notable land owner that was an ex-slave is Fanuco Romero, a man that payed back his loan but still continues to give a share to the MSI and is a devoted share holder.

This is only a concept and it's not in-game yet. I wanted to see if this would work, if it couldn't I would just throw it away. Feel free to point out mistakes and leave comments. If this could indeed work, I would need a group of people that would help me to get this thing in motion. Thank you.
Please add what you feel would be your reputations with others.
Also I just have to point out that Bretonian civilian is red cell for Outcasts in the tech chart so you would need slaver ID to be your primary ID for this.
I'd join, if I could.

However, I don't have comp atm, so I can only do smth on forums.:)

[font=Comic Sans Ms][color=#FF9900]
i think rep will be like other outcast's anyway good idea to back a OC RP
to his primar purpose, smuglin a carda and make poeple's happy!! :lol:
I do like the history you have made.
Done. Added a short list that gives the general idea.

Well, I would love to have you...if you had a computer. But like you mentioned you could do something over the forums that is related to the group. :D

Well, I did think that the ID/IFF combination would be a bit self explanatory about the reputation. But I guess it just isn't enough.
' Wrote:I do like the history you have made.

Thank you but it's still far from finished.
Hehe, this reminds me of the Blue Lotus Syndicate [BLS] (something like a drug cartel, later a sub-division of {SOB} due to inactivity) that some members of years past might remember ...

Just a heads up about the members thing, it might be a bit of a headache getting people to join and stay in a faction that mostly trades and flies back and forth, or atleast it was back in the days of [BLS] ...

Hope you succeed in making this work, if not, good try ...

~cheers!
Well... what can I say? I approve of the idea, and I really hope that you manage to get this faction to take off.

Good luck, and don't be afraid to ask for help if you ever need it.
I am glad to see so much positive feedback. So I will try to get this running...if anyone wants to participate in this, just PM me. Thank you again.
