@davidchan I'm afraid your last post is very confusing with saying EOC is not a thing then quoting a very small section of the "EOC" part of Space Law, then adding exceptions which just in fact reinforces the point you are arguing against.
To clear it up: EOC is still there and there are a lot of reasons to kill an antagonist, such as:
- Hatched shadowling: kill on sight
- Nuclear operative: kill on sight
- Confirmed changeling: kill on sight
- Wizard/Apprentices: kill on sight (as it is basically a meme round)
This leaves us with the following antagoists:
- Vampires: if they are powered - not necessarily fully powered, just simply powered - security can deem them uncontainable, execution/exilement
- Cultists & Thralls: unless they go murderboney, they have to be deconverted; if they go murderboney on a large scale and/or in massive numbers, lethal force is authorized (which is often forgotten...)
- Traitors: this is probably the only antagonist you referred to, yes, they need to commit a capital crime to get executed/exiled, otherwise they have to be put into perma
@Coldflame Seeing how many antagonists have to be or can be instantly killed by the law - and most of them don't even reach the execution chamber, just get killed on sight then tagged as DNR - I don't think we need any more encouragement of permamently eliminating antagonists from the round.
If everyone was allowed to subdue antagonists, why would NT hire a security department? And more importantly, what would a round become? The first time a changeling would kidnap an engineer, his fellow engineers would vent the hell out of that maintenance and/or electrify the airlock, zap the guy, then bust in with three more Grey McTiders and fireaxe the changeling to death. Then we all sit for 2 more hours because the other changeling is probably new and not ready to face 80 crewmembers. Keep "medium roleplay" in mind. If you see a vampire kidnapping your colleague, you should be terrified. Rules allow you to rescue someone if they are in immediate danger, which you would probably do in real life (if someone tried to kidnap your friend) but actively seeking out a psychopath? I doubt that.
