[quote=@Willy Vereb] <Snipped quote by Brithwyr>I think neither of these are quite used in the NRP yet. We have opressive empire and telepathy-linked pacifists but none of the above. On the other hand we have no less than 3 communist states with each hating the others. [/quote] Well, the Simulacrum aren't total pacifists. They're just far more inclined to pursue peaceful resolutions, because of the whole 'feel the thoughts and emotions of others around them' and 'our species fucked the world twice' things. But if it's necessary, they will fight. They won't like it, but they'll fight. Hmmm, actually now that I think about it I think I'll have the ground forces of the Terminus made up almost entirely of unmanned drones. Makes sense that empaths like the Simulacrum would prefer to leave the ground slog to machines rather than actual people.
