Except the Marines/unsc have literally every advantage over an innie. Better weapons, more coverage armor, a respawn that allows rapid redeployment nearly everywhere. Theyre far from the underdog. I really don’t see how the UNSC RoE can condone battlefield or post-trial execution of people who have sought them out for the sole purpose of surrendering.
Marines self policing is one reason why things like slicing the tendons of compliant prisoners is allowed as a form of restraint and barely seen as poor form. When the majority of the playerbase (or dominant faction compared to innie/cov) plays as a marine you tend to see poorer quality self policing. I fail to see how the UNSC would tolerate the warcrimes that are literally a meme status in this community. You have marines that boast about beheading innie prisoners or act like shooting an innie who is bucklecuffed facing a wall is the same as honorable combat; or someone who casually snacks into an MRE as the prisoner who handed herself over - with her own handcuffs - gasps for air as the internals he set run on empty. People who want prisoner RP need these protections in an IC term.
