The computers on both sides say (based on offensive or defensive calculations) that a certain sector of a city was hit. It then calculates the casualty rate and people by law are REQUIRED to report to the nearest termination chamber to voluntarily end their existence! The goal is to not destroy property, landmarks, natural resources, works of art, timeless architecture , etc. but eliminate people. It all work so well (population control, disputes settled, no radiation, no pollution, no maiming, no destroyed cities, no unintended deaths).

Yes, it all worked so well until Cap n Kirk messed it all up. The jerk, LOL... And what ever happened to adhering to the "prime directive?"
