You never appeared nor seem to play Outcasts.
Care to shed some light on that?
This is a good question, and I would agree this issue isn't clarified enough.
This is, of course, owing to some 7 (more or less) years of game time, in which we drifted closer and closer in alignment with Malta. As such, we've been at different times allies, business partners, neutral bystanders and even subordinates to various OC factions. And other than the fact that about half of our faction's personnel are Maltese, as is elaborated in the lore, we've also become Outcasts by association, in a way. It wouldn't be wrong to say that the Commune considers Malta its home to an extent, as was made evident in various defense situations and even in political crises, where we always defaulted on the choice that ensured we would never have to square off and fight Maltese people. Even when we didn't particularly like it. Which is something of a rare and uncharacteristic display of sentimental attachment for a people that gave us refuge when we needed it most.
Thank you for your feedback. Do we need to elaborate further?
