This document explains the rules of engagement and proper conduct procedures against the versatile situations and conflicts that arise travelling through Sirius. All HS> members must read this in order to fulfill the tasks effectively.
1.1. Intervene in House affairs as possible, in order to track, harass or repel enemy movements and to achieve the Orange Dream, the complete Maltese domination of societies through Cardamine, in whole Sirius.
1.2. Protect Maltese at all costs. If traces of insurgency or deviant behavior appear, involving an Outcast attacking other Outcasts, or Outcasts assisting foes, in order to disrupt our people and culture, contact Alpha Command as soon as possible. If action must be immediately taken and the suspicious Maltese does not respond accordingly, decided to confront, all personnel are authorized to take custody or, in worst case scenario, eliminate the traitor with extreme prejudice. Alpha Command reserves the right to impart unilateral decisions towards Outcast traitors.
1.4. Respect the orders given by Alpha Command and superiors.
1.5. Assist Dons unaffiliated with HS>. Criteria are advised, as Dons’ agendas are different and conflicts of interest can happen, provoking the endangerment of our whole Nation. All members must uphold to HS> and what it stands for.
1.6. Not share Outcast technology, under no circumstances, without prior authorization of Alpha Command. Irresponsible use of instruments, that can harm in any way HS> and its members, will result in immediate extermination of the dealer.
2. Directives regarding the appropriation of external assets:
All members must:
2.1. Obtain commodities that can generate benefits for all HS> efforts and Maltese society. To fulfill this task, convincing and/or persuasion are highly encouraged to implement against the involved entities.
2.2. Acquire scientific research and nomad technology, at all costs. All members must secure information, materials and devices related to the current HS> projects. If the opposite entity declines or does not permit the acquisition, seizure and/or destruction of the elements takes priority.
2.3. Permit the escape of those who collaborate with our ends. Sustained acquisition must be preserved on the long run; stripping completely the assets of individuals or crew can result in the downfall of their economy and ours, thus a reduction of opportunities.
3. Directives regarding Cardamine and competition:
All members must:
3.1. Secure all Cardamine trades and routes involved, at all times as possible. Cardamine is the backbone of Orange Dream, a fall in its selling could affect the Maltese economy as a whole.

After the newborn Outcast has been secured and separated from the slave, this last one must be returned to the owner as soon as possible.

Unauthorized foreigner and not formal ally presence must be not tolerated if the intruders are in the vicinity of Planet Malta (at least 10K from it).
