Quote from Crenshinibon
Killing his family members doesn't matter if you use the train of thought that he's just been using the Black Knights as a means to eliminate other possible successors.
His mother being murdered and sister being crippled might, but it seems like he won't need the Black Knights after they oust him. With a insanely powerful few allies he's perfectly capable of taking down Charles, and it looks like his team members have some pretty ridiculous machines. I mean, you know he's not just going to leave Siegfried alone- that's definitely getting repaired or upgraded, and it was already the most powerful mech in the show.
I hate the wait in between episodes though, even if it does give me another thing to do.
As powerful as his inner circle is he is still dealing with whole armies, and as numerous as the Black Knights are they really can't win without Zero. If this was the case they should have been able to win during the first Black Rebellion. If they are going to actually win they really are going to have to gamble and have faith that Zero isn't just playing them for fools. Now they could all just decide to put down their arms but they will never be able to return to Japan or go to any Britannian territory. Besides there is the nuke that Schnizel has which is going to tip the whole balance of power, their numbers may simply not be enough to deal with such a weapon.His mother being murdered and sister being crippled might, but it seems like he won't need the Black Knights after they oust him.

Zero/Lelouch couldn't have come as far as he has without Geass, or the Black Knights and the Black Knights could never have come as far as they have without Zero/Lelouch. If Lelouch/Zero was the type to just be using the Black Knights he wouldn't have displayed the emotion he did when Kallen got captured, he would have just bailed quickly. The Black Knights are going to be in for a great deal of soul searching.
