[ETHIC:TORTURE_AS_EXAMPLE:UNTHINKABLE] <- UNTHINKABLE!
-this is a suggestions thread, the suggestion is for this to be changed
[ETHIC:TORTURE_FOR_INFORMATION:UNTHINKABLE] <- UNTHINKABLE!
-this is fine, pikes are torture as an example
[ETHIC:TORTURE_FOR_FUN:UNTHINKABLE] <- UNTHINKABLE!
-this is fine, pikes are torture as an example
[ETHIC:TORTURE_ANIMALS:UNTHINKABLE] <- UNTHINKABLE!
-animals dont siege you
[ETHIC:ASSAULT:PUNISH_SERIOUS] <- Corporal is fine for retribution - not terror.
-this is for punishing home-grown criminals, not war, which is strictly another matter entirely that involves law-enforcement
[ETHIC:SLAVERY:PUNISH_CAPITAL] <- Executions are fine.
-again, this is punishment for dwarves not invaders
[ETHIC:EAT_SAPIENT_OTHER:UNTHINKABLE] <- Not Elves.
-this just means they wont eat sapients, doesnt affect piking at all
[ETHIC:EAT_SAPIENT_KILL:UNTHINKABLE] <- Still not Elves.
-this just means they wont eat invaders, doesnt affect piking at all
[ETHIC:MAKE_TROPHY_SAME_RACE:APPALLING] <- Seriously.
-this just means they wont make bone crafts and totems out of other dwarves
[ETHIC:MAKE_TROPHY_SAPIENT:SHUN] <- Why impaling is not fine.
-this just means they wont make bone crafts and totems out of sapients, piking isnt making a lasting "trophy" it doesnt even kill them most of the time, its leaving them to rot in a way that conveniently "encourages" the next goblin siege to pause for a few seconds before sometimes (doesnt always work) slowly back away to the edge of the map.
[ETHIC:MAKE_TROPHY_ANIMAL:ACCEPTABLE] <- Why totems are fine.
-actually dwarves are content to make bone crafts and totems out of any type of bone or skull if you can obtain them through other means, such as a corpse grinder.
oh, and none of the other races would be offended by such an act because them all find torturing as an example acceptable and are all likely to already be at war with goblins anyway.
