With the Maltese economy relying heavily upon its trafficking through the Taus and into the Houses, the Outcasts felt they were faced with threat after threat that inhibited the former part of the journey. In every system, be it forces of the Gallic Royal Navy, Imperial Kusari Navy, Crayter Military, or the Council, opposition was entrenched against them. Even non combatant organizations of the region, such as the Independent Miners Guild, Hogosha, Unione Corse, and on occasion the Gallic Metal Service, made efforts to impede the Maltese. As time went on, it seemed as if their runners, smugglers, and supply vessels alike became easy pickings for the many and rapidly increasing hostiles that they encounter. With news of the Kirkwall Base falling to the Gaians, it became even more clear - a solution was needed.
As the first step of their plan to better secure their trade routes, the Outcasts needed to increase their direct presence in Tau space. They deployed increased patrols and dispatched veteran escorts for cargo vessels, but it still proved difficult with the gap between Planet Malta and House territory, where they have allies to shelter them. The Basilica, a D5-2A Ranseur, was deployed to solidify their sphere of influence in the central Taus. Its mandate includes protecting valuable cargo en route to House space, guarding the slavers pushing for Malta, and launching raids against whoever leaves themselves vulnerable. Safeguarding the nation's economy by securing this route is critical, and the Outcasts must remind their enemies that they won't be pushed around.
