Killing refugees on non-combatant ships is generally frowned upon and would probably have some serious inRP consequences for groups that do that, esp. a house military.
And for the Military supplies? Also, given that this is Enclave, the glassers of Leeds, non-combatant is kind of not a viable story to play with. That's the entire prospect of such things as Mutual Assured Destruction. If one side was perfectly ok with genocide, then all who support that side will be assumed to have been ok with the action. The same goes for committing the action. Also, since I've been told that this is Kusari's vengeance war, and not actually about the dumb "get all the warwolves", how would Royalist civilians even matter to them? Wars fought on emotional standpoints generally have a "no holds barred" attitude anyway.
I never said anything about military aid friend
So as far as killing civilians goes, are you making a statement on behalf of one side of belligerents in this battle that escaping women and children are to be treated no differently then a military target? Or are you trying to say that KNF or whoever hates the Enclave atm is ready to be just as bad as they think the Enclave is by committing the same crime?
Those are both bold statements for a single person to make.
From an RP standpoint, we (Phoenix) would always respond to a call for assistance to help a civilian population, and hope to prevent another massive loss of civilians even if their government has made some poor decisions in the past. As far as anyone else is concerned, they don't know about our relations with the Enclave so yes we can say we are humanitarians as long as we don't run the war supplies. What I'm trying to figure out is if the Kusarian forces will sink to that level themselves, and justify it by saying they did it to Bretonia so its ok for us to do to them. Seems like it would be wildly unpopular decision with the civilian populations and might just lead to the same sort of situation that got the Royalists knocked out of power after the 'glassing'. Just my observation.
Supplying war material is a much different matter and was not what I was commenting on, thus I made no mention of it. I don't think it is a requirement to run both the civilians and the supplies if a group of space hippies like us were asked for help.
