Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict/Civilians

"Watch it, general! Civilian casualties must be in a mininum!"

-Eva Lee.

Though most factions do their best to make sure that the battlefield is clear of non-combatants, this is not always possible in the fluid, ever-changing nature of modern warfare. As a result, civilians can find themselves trapped on the field of battle. Where most factions can lead them to safety or even get them to help, though more underhanded factions can use civilians for other tactics, either to make finding them harder or even use them as human shields.The presence of Civilians can be used as a tactic by underhanded factions, and there are financial consequences for killing them, so try to avoid it. Civilians are not autotargeted, but you can order your forces to kill them if you think it necessary.

EVA will notify the player if they killed a civilian ("Civilian killed!").

Civilians come in two forms; on foot, and in vehicles.
