Description of the incident:
The queen got off ovi sometime around 16 by memory to RP with a synthivor. Before this, she had set a single leader and she hadn’t been building from what I saw. She spent some time (10 minutes or a touch less, from memory) doing nothing but RPing with the synth, she never did anything of use to the hive during this time. This included; discussing with the hive (the builders were asking questions on the layout of defenses), and ignoring human survivors that she was informed were in her immediate vicinity needed help capturing. This prevented T3s rolling out when marines landed, we didnt have any leadership for ages (she was generally non communicative anyway), and survivors that would’ve easily been cappable were left alone.
I understand that the hive (barring queens words) isnt obliged to kill the synthivor or any synths but the blatant ignoring of their role is LRP, and not using their slot. Evidently this lead to the xenos loosing the round.
I was debating ahelping but I was busy helping clear unbuildable terrain for the hivelord, and I wanted to be clear what rules they were breaking in this niche situation. The fact she was ancient was also a precipitant factor in PRing this as she really should have known better.
EDIT: Redid first paragraph (it was unreadable, I blame it on rushing this out)
