Thanks for the advice. It's rather ironic someone with drug symbolism in his avatar and sig isn't the one starting what I think is Disco's 1st smuggler's faction. My faction concept was partially taken from an enormously sucessful Star Wars: Galaxies clan called the Independent Smugglers Ring and because apparently smuggling is going to get lucrative in the next version. Also, making it around the time of escalation of Corsair/Rheinland hostility provides interesting opportunities to use and assist Outcast allied unlawfuls in Rheinland and play the two enemies against each other.
By the way, the actual reason I made this an Outcast clan is because I thought they were a bit light in terms of active factions (though to an extent I later found out I was wrong on this) and because a drug smuggling ring makes the most sense as an Outcast one.
