I find cruel and callous easy and fun. Perhaps it's just me.

But, we used to play Orlanthi rebels in RQ2 and we regularly perpetrated massacres, normally on Lunar soldiers or militiamen, but often on cultists. We only really stopped when the Lunars killed ten Orlanthi for every Lunar we killed.

So, I've no problem at all with the wanton slaying of enemies and their dependents. It makes perfect sense to me.
