After the asteroid was pressurized, [[Outcasts]] moved in their own equipment to complete outfitting the station. Using the newest technologies for building asteroid bases, they created a large and well-defended outpost that could counter most threats. The asteroid field surrounding the station provides additional protection. Torino was completed with unprecedented haste and greatly assisted the efforts of the Outcasts in delivering [[Cardamine]] to the populated planets of [[Gallia]]. The drug is considered even stronger than Gallia's own [[Nox]], and is becoming a new fashion with the night life of [[Planet New Paris|New Paris]] and other planets of Gallia. While the pirates of Gallia are not involved in Cardamine distribution, some freelancers, mercenaries and shady dealers of various sorts, both in space and planetside, willingly purchase the drug from the Outcasts. The reason is simple: the price of the new drug with the end users is immense, and profits in the next few years are expected to be very high, compensating even the risks of the unforgiving space of Gallia.

Torino asteroid base was hastily built in 818 A.S. by the Junkers from Lixheim who were hired by the Outcasts. When the minefield was breached, patrols from Genoa Base were quick to investigate the situation. After a brief skirmish with Council scouts sent through to make contact, they were surprised to find that among the strange Gallic Naval, familiar Junkers resided. Outcast leaders were quick to detain and "persuade" several Junkers to explain their activities on Malta. In the process, they learned much about Gallia, and the potential for Cardamine distribution to that house.

The Outcasts then pressured the Junkers of Lixheim into providing them a suitable location for their first outpost inside Gallic space. Other pirate factions chose not to offer the Junkers any protection from the Outcasts, and many said that the Junkers sealed their fate themselves by co-operating with Gallic officials for so many years. Therefore, the Junkers had to deal with the visitors on their own.

Torino was established in an asteroid base previously occupied by Gallic Brigands, but abandoned when the Brigands were unable to mainain an adequate supply line to the base. After repressurising the base and restoring one of the docking facilities, the base was turned over to the Outcasts, who converted the remainder of the base to suit their own needs. The Outcasts plan to start the distribution of Cardamine into Gallia from Torino, realising the potential for profit by exporting the drug to their new neighbours.
