Besides, 'realism' in cases such as this would likely amount to pushing particularly political agendas. Let's be honest here - most of what is considered to be a 'war crime' these days tends to only be a 'war crime' when the enemy does it. Though that's touching on a political debate I'd probably best not fire up on a site like this.

"Nobody ever considers themselves to be the villain."

But that's why the whole suggestion being made is the games follow the international war laws, Geneva Convention, things like that. It's supposedly what we all agreed were the "rules" of war.

Sun Tzu would probably laugh at all of it. >_>

I don't think anything like this would ever go in, but I'd still be intrigued by a game that did have more than just "go pew pew pew everything" as part of the gameplay.
