Despite the fact that you do not have to kill/execute necessarily any wounded Orcs, you have the possibility to do that...
And if you do, that named war crime, i guess. (Burning innocents in Teldrassil was also a war crime of course.)
As an Alliance player I'm really against this. I do not even want the possibility to kill like this. (And f*** I did it, by mistake because i was in a hurry. :( )

That is every comment on this page.

Where to go
