2. Do not burn or destroy land (pillaging) and do not kill local people (women, children, and elders) who are not fighting you.
3. Do not slay farm animals (like Cows, Sheep, Chicken and Goats) unless it’s for food.
4. Raping is not permitted. If one is found breaking this law, the Flag Officer is ordered to kill the solider for breaking the Edits of War.

7. POWs must not be treated lowly (like crap). They must be given some respect.
8. POWs' need of bases, food, water, and others will not be withheld.
