Completed in 780 A.S., Montezuma is the home and birthplace of the Liberty Rogues' infamous spacecraft, the [[Greyhound]], and is rather less well-hidden than most other Rogue bases. Some of the more paranoid elements within the Rogues suspect that the [[Liberty Navy]] has a very good idea where the Cortez Rogues take their spoils after a long, hard day of honest piracy.
+
Completed in 684 [[A.S.]], Montezuma has been the main base from where the [[Liberty Rogues]] raid civilian traffic in both the [[Magellan]] and [[Cortez]] systems. Trade between [[Liberty]] and [[Bretonia]] has always been heavy, so the Rogues have no shortage of targets to ply their brutal trade. The base isn't as well concealed as most other Rogue bases, and some of the Rogues suspect that both Liberty and Bretonia are aware of the base's location, but so far, neither nation has made an aggressive move towards the Corcovado Ice Field. The base is also frequented by [[Outcasts]], [[Lane Hackers]] and [[Junkers]] seeking to buy and sell [[Cardamine]], supplies or information.
  
Regardless, Montezuma remains, as it has always been, a popular destination for much of the pirate element that accumulates around western Liberty. The colourful assortment of Rogues, [[Lane Hackers]], [[Outcasts]], and the like sprawled across rickety chairs or lounging at the tiki bar serves as a vibrant reminder of the diversity Liberty has to offer in criminal terms, though it also has a more sinister connotation, as the more discerning visitor aboard the ice asteroid may soon realize what a potent threat the pirate hordes can and do pose to the safety and sanctity of the House where they ply their trade. Nick Creeley, Montezuma's greying chief, once proposed that the Outcasts aboard the station teach the Rogues the tricks to their skilful piloting, but arrangements eventually petered out in the face of disorganized chaos.
+
As the Gallic incursion pushes into Cortez, Montezuma has attempted to remain unnoticed and has significantly reduced its patrols of the system in a bid to remain hidden. With security on high alert, all rogue ships in Cortez have been instructed to flee into Bretonia or Liberty instead of risk giving away Montezuma, [[Inverness]] or [[Coronado]] installations. The notable reduction in activity in Cortez has lead to a surge of rogue activity within the neighbouring systems.
  
Practically any good or ware can be purchased in Montezuma's expansive storage bays, from [[Artifacts|artifacts]] to [[Niobium|niobium]], it is for sale here. The prices are in proportion, as well, since Montezuma's dealers do a brisk trade most every day supplying Liberty's undesirables with their daily necessities. "Shady" transactions aren't made aboard this base, with bales of dried [[Cardamine|cardamine]] lie heaped beside [[Food Rations|food rations]] and [[Superconductors|superconductors]]. The nature of the ware doesn't matter, only the amount of credits in the buyer's pocket do.
 
 
Crime in the region generally is centered on here and [[Bretonia]], as the only House that yet maintains truly positive relations with Liberty, does a brisk interregional trade, and the Rogues accordingly fatten their pockets with trader spoils. Life is easy on Montezuma, they say, and the Rogues certainly maintain that appearance, for the sake of business if for nothing else, but the ominous threats of the Navy finally getting wise as well as of the roiling pirate masses loom more or less constantly, and every now and again, as the space-raid klaxons wail, it's all the Rogues of Cortez can do to thrust aside their fears.

Completed in 684 A.S., Montezuma has been the main base from where the Liberty Rogues raid civilian traffic in both the Magellan and Cortez systems. Trade between Liberty and Bretonia has always been heavy, so the Rogues have no shortage of targets to ply their brutal trade. The base isn't as well concealed as most other Rogue bases, and some of the Rogues suspect that both Liberty and Bretonia are aware of the base's location, but so far, neither nation has made an aggressive move towards the Corcovado Ice Field. The base is also frequented by Outcasts, Lane Hackers and Junkers seeking to buy and sell Cardamine, supplies or information.

As the Gallic incursion pushes into Cortez, Montezuma has attempted to remain unnoticed and has significantly reduced its patrols of the system in a bid to remain hidden. With security on high alert, all rogue ships in Cortez have been instructed to flee into Bretonia or Liberty instead of risk giving away Montezuma, Inverness or Coronado installations. The notable reduction in activity in Cortez has lead to a surge of rogue activity within the neighbouring systems.
