Use of Deadly Force 
As a member of the station's Security force, you are one of the best armed and protected people on the station and equipped with the latest in non-lethal weaponry.
Situations that warrant the use of Deadly Force are few and far between. In the vast majority of cases, you will be expected to use your non-lethal tools which are many times more effective than lethal options to defuse a situation.
There are however certain circumstances where deadly force is permissible:
| Lethals Authorised - Post-Combat Treatment/Revival Required | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Armed and Dangerous (Stun Weapons, Lethals, etc.) |
Multiple Assailants (Armed or Otherwise) |
Cultists (Flag Robes, Highly Armed, etc.) |
Individual Possessing Explosives (Grenades, TTVs, etc.) |
Unstunnable Individuals (Stimulants, Implants, etc.) | ||
| Non-Crew (Golems, Ash Walkers, etc.) |
Revolutionaries (Non-Heads) |
Armoury Trespassers (Armed or Otherwise) |
Hostile Environment (N2O, Fire, Space) |
|||
| Lethals Recommended - Posthumous Revival Required | ||||||
| Cultists (Halos) |
Heavily Armed (.357, eSword, etc.) |
Holoparasite Users (Irrespective of Type) |
Vampires (Shadowstep) |
Hostile Exosuits (Any Chassis) | ||
| Lethals Authorised - Kill on Sight | ||||||
| Fully Powered Vampires (Irrespective of Hostilities) |
Nuclear Operatives (Including Infiltration Teams) |
Revolutionary Heads (Excluding Standard Revolutionaries) |
Perma Escapees (Outside Permabrig/Isolation) |
Exogenous Threats (Xenomorphs, Terror Spiders, Borers, Changelings, etc.) | ||
| Abductors (Including Other Hostile Aliens) |
Cult Constructs (Irrespective of Type) |
Swarmers (Lavaland or Otherwise) |
Bluespace Entities (Demons, Wizards, Revenants, etc.) |
Shadowlings (Including Thralls at Critical Mass) | ||
Posthumous Revival - Should lethal force be levied against a target that is not an EoC (such as a cultist), is not set to DNR, or is not set to Execute/Kill on Sight the person is to be revived and sentenced/deconverted as soon as possible. Petty criminals met with lethal force are to be given immediate medical attention when captured.
In general, if it is possible to capture personnel non-lethally you should. If you do not, expect to have to justify yourself to Internal Affairs to not get fired and to Administrators to not be Jobbanned.
