Just wanted to say real quick in response to Lord Saren101's comment about krogan having 'strict honor through combat'... are we thinking of the same krogan here? The ones I'm thinking of are the ones with the notorious reputation of fighting extremely dirty and not caring about collateral damage. The ones who (to quote the Codex) were fine with "dropping space stations and asteroids on turian colonies", rendering three worlds uninhabitable. The krogan who are the reason that the Citadel Conventions regulating the use of WMDs against inhabited worlds. Just throwing that out there. I like the krogan too, it should just be pointed out that they really have no sense of 'honor through combat'. Krogan thinking is 'look out for number one', and the strongest survive, but only if they aren't betrayed first, as krogan are (again, from the Codex) 'are neither surprised nor offended by treachery', and follow the mantra "kill, pillage, and be selfish, for tomorrow we die." Hardly a race that has strict honor through... well, anything! :P
