Ordering your subordinates

Post by Tarchonvaagh » #505856

Like if you are a traitor Hop ordering cargo to rise up, will they get banned if they arm themselves and kill sec?

See, this is where rules lawyering intersects with roleplay. I don't think people have a good answer for this.

If the HoP's a traitor and they're captain because the captains dead/there is none.

Then sec will generally do whatever they say.

Think the same applies here.

Yes, cargo is a department, not a team, you are not expected to blindly follow a department head that asks you to break space law and the chain of command

Other than that it wildly depends from context and escalation, getting in a scuffle with sec is probably fine, chucking bombs into the brig just because your head of staff asked you to will probably get in trouble

Yes if it's blatant "just kill sec cuz I said so".

No if you manage to use subterfuge and deceit and they fall for it.
