I've been squelched and done some squelching in my time, but I've also been one to return power to the one I was squelching. I've also worked to redeem myself and have my squelching undone. It's an interesting dynamic for orcs to kiss ass like their own shiftily ran Empire, or take power by force. Vote? Vote this! *axe to the head*
But, it's also a question to be raised for goblins - level 50 orcs and level 40 goblins will never get that hero level edge bonus, will they? So, how do you reward these players or should they be rewarded for being at the bottom? Is squelching too powerful, it's not like they lose bash :P
