That's actually my fault. When I was a bit newer, I made a Jorm, which was my second battleship. The Hessians were commies and common pirates at the time. I noticed that Hessian ships and bases were named after Norse stuff, and I didn't know what and where Hesse was yet, so I was thrilled to RP my captain as a Viking and raid Bretonia and Space Eastern Frankia (Rheinland) every once in a while. Wesker, among other noobs, seems to have liked my erroneous RP and, with Zayne's support, he officially integrated it into the faction.
Another example of how I can be poisonous to this community.
