The first idea leaves you with fire zombies, don't last long but don't let them touch you!

The second idea leaves behind radioactive fire zombies, even worse then fire zombies. :p

Yyyyeeeah, let's not have radioactive zombies at all, whether or not they're on fire.

I have made this line of text bold for one reason. What of non-humans, like the Darvi? Are you saying we can not use space or that rules set will not effect us? Can you please specify?

Also we would make peace with the Humans before we would ever agree to such a proposal.
