• Divide and Disperse Unless otherwise instructed by an authority, such as a Guard Captain or a Ministry Official, a soldier's first duty is to keep the peace. Their mandate is to attempt to quell disturbances by disbursing groups and separating troublemakers - before any blood is shed. Once blood is drawn, arrest is mandatory. Ministry Soldiers use “I'm Watching You!” liberally to keep as many potential targets marked as possible. Commonly this is expressed by the soldier two-finger pointing to their visor and then pointing the same fingers at the target.
  
• Push Them Back When attempting to calm riots on The Docks, Ministry Soldiers use Tide of Iron to shove people off the piers in order to quickly reduce the number of targets.
