Is this _really_ how you want the game to be played?

Yes. It's less delusional than assuming basic humanity from attackers ... in a war.

So when Ukrainian regime attacked separatists in the Donetsk and Lughansk regions in 2014, were they lacking basic humanity in your eyes? Just asking.

Girkin («Strelkov») is Russian agent from Russia. Do we need your permission to kill Russian invaders?

"Russian invaders, and the occasional local collaborator or two."

Who in any case know exactly what's coming to them.
