   # Roleplay Rule 9 - As an antagonist, do not cause excessive death, damage, or destruction beyond your objectives
-  This rule is not intended to disallow reasonable steps taken to complete your objectives. As an antagonist, you can always kill in bona fide self defense. Taking steps to permanently round remove many people who are no longer an immediate threat to you is almost always excessive, even if it is done to prevent yourself from being discovered.
 
-  This rule is not intended to disallow all antagonist activity unrelated to objectives. Antagonists may cause a level of disruption to the station that is proportional to their objectives, even if it is unrelated to their objectives. As an antagonist, killing a single person in a round is not on its own be a violation of this rule.
+  This rule is not intended to disallow reasonable steps taken to complete your objectives. As an antagonist, you can always kill in bona fide self defense. You can kill if the action of killing could potentially advance your objectives. Taking steps to permanently round remove many people who are not a threat to you is almost always excessive.
+
+  Unless told otherwise, antags should avoid causing disruption to the station or other players that could potentially cause entire departments to stop functioning, either permanently or for a significant portion of the round. Major disruptive actions are acceptable to get evac called if the objectives require that the antagonist escapes to Centcomm, this does not include singuloose/tesloose. Antagonists should also avoid round-removing a large number of players unnecessarily.
+
+  As an antagonist, killing a few objective unrelated persons in a round is not on its own a violation of this rule. Pursuing a gimmick unrelated to the objectives entirely is also permissible as long as this gimmick does not cause nonantagonists to self antag.
 
   ## MRP Amendment
 
   As an antagonist, do not make the Emergency Shuttle uninhabitable or otherwise cause excessive death, damage, or destruction to the Emergency Shuttle.
 
   ## Exemptions
-  The "die a glorious death" objective allows antagonists to ignore this rule entirely.
+ The Syndicate Agent “die a glorious death” objective allows antagonists to ignore this rule entirely. Nuclear Operatives and Wizards are also exempt from this rule as of the time of writing.

   - Permanently round removing people who you have the objective to kill.
   - Causing massive station damage and chaos as an antagonist with the "die a glorious death" objective.
-  - Killing anyone you see as a nuclear operative.
+  - Killing anyone you see while playing as nuclear operative(s).
   - Permanently round removing a single person so that you can impersonate them to make it easier for you to complete a steal objective.
-  - Sabotaging station power 10 minutes into the round to try to get the shuttle called because you've completed all of your other objectives and have one to escape on the shuttle alive.
+  - Sabotaging station power 10 minutes into the round to try to get the shuttle called because you’ve completed all of your other objectives and have one to escape on the shuttle alive.

-  - Sabotaging a department's power 10 minutes into the round to make a steal objective easier to accomplish.
+  - Sabotaging a department’s power 10 minutes into the round to make a steal objective easier to accomplish. (Such as cutting the departments MV power, or removing/destroying the substation.)

-  - Sabotaging power station-wide 10 minutes into the round to make a steal objective easier to accomplish.
