Even more important... what's to keep someone from joining a different country and killing all the guys from one of the the other countries?

Solo doesn't understand the force.

Luke is (was?) understanding the force and was almost .... just almost lured to the dark side.

Darth Vader understands the force and was lured to the dark side where he enjoyed killing for pleasure and held great power until he wussed out and got what he deserved ... because of it.

Chewback-ee is just a dumb wookie.

Just thought I'd clear up the Solo thing. No relation to Hann. Actually my call sign and rank with U.S. Army Rangers, 1970 til 1980. Solo used on Ranger teams to identify lone sniper. Name just stuck. Wish the movie had used a differnt name sometimes. ;)

In AH friendly fire is pretty much a victimless crime because of tools in place to curtail it.  Surel that is quite the opposite of how things work out here in reality land but if killing teammates was permissable this board and the arena would be filled with the wails and cries about "fragging prettythanghole griefers." A foul species of player that would undoubtedly grow  and flourish in this day and age of "anything go's for kicks!"  AH.

 However we're lucky and "flying" online here is not "real world" nor is it a type of "WWII" mulligan.  We're fortunate in that HTC has added to AH a model of a jury, the judge and inevitable firing squad for those who simply cannot control thier impulses :)
