Proposal: Police State

If Proposal: Ship Discipline failed, this proposal fails too.

Create a new rule, 'Police State' with the following text:

The members of Epsilon Group are armed with Neural Stunners. A member of Epsilon Group may spend an action point to use the Neural Stunner on a crewmember in the same location as em. Using the neural stunner on a healthy crewmember changes eir vitality to stunned. It has no effect on stunned, wounded, or dead crewmembers.

Epsilon group members my stun any crewmember who has committed an actionable offense, as defined in the ruleset, without penalty.

Stunning a crewmember who has not commited an actionable offense is itself an actionable offense.

Append to the description of Epsilon Group in Rule 17:

Any member of the Epsilon Group may, while moving, move a Wounded or Stunned Crewmember with them by spending another Action Point.

In a nutshell, the Epsilon Group are police officers, who can knock out anyone who has committed a crime and drag them into the cell.
