Of course, my sense of humanity is offended by the lack of morale in
this situation. Something tells me when the big wave of SMLs
appeared, many of your light ship captains would beat feet (or
thrusters) to avoid certain death - if they didn't refuse this
suicidal order in the firstplace. But then I just love morale rules!
