* The rights of peasants can vary widely between estates. Links contain a lot of speculation on peasant/noble relations.

* Really serious issues get resolved by diplomacy or the Senate. If the issue is of real importance to the individual clans and it just can't be worked out via normal means, it goes to the Royal Court, which is literally run by an AI, The Magistrate. The Magistrate has some thoroughly scary powers and will make a ruling that serves the interests of justice. Most Clans don't really want to interact with the Magistrate. Problems that are basically bullshit, like something that isn't meaningful in real terms but nobody can back down without saving face, or there are mixed feelings about it within the Clan itself, might be resolved via duels. Duels are where champions in mechs go out and fight each other. [[https://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?784701-Sorta-Recruitment-Stars-Without-Number-The-High-amp-the-Mighty&p=20217436#post20217436]]

*Gladitorial fighting is ''in'' on some parts of New Eden, but forcibly drafting teens into it would be too far for most nobles. Convicted felons on the other hand might just work.

*Estates vary between those that openly embrace the direct rule of the nobles and merely have all practical power consolidated in their hands. [[https://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?784701-Sorta-Recruitment-Stars-Without-Number-The-High-amp-the-Mighty&p=20217704#post20217704]]
