Peter's Evil Overlord List: Relation to Real Movies or Games
Hey, all. I'm in the middle of reading Peter's Evil Overlord List, and I can't help but note that some of the rules are references to games and movies we know, so for the Hell of it, shall we list the references down here?

Oh yeah, one more thing:

This Evil Overlord List is Copyright 1996-1997 by Peter Anspach. If you enjoy it, feel free to pass it along or post it anywhere, provided that (1) it is not altered in any way, and (2) this copyright notice is attached.

Rule 1: Stormtroopers...and they can't aim properly.
Rule 2: Another Star Wars reference? Or was it James Bond? Mission Impossible, perhaps? :nervous:
Rule 6: Bond and the Neo-Terran Front.
Rule 7: James Bond?
Rule 11: The Joker?
Rule 13: King Elessar, aka. Aragorn, who fell off a cliff.
Rule 15: Austin Powers and that "Lay-zer".
Rule 21: Orcs, Stormtroopers, the Galactic Terran Alliance, you name it.
Rule 23: Take it on the side of the Humans if they force an EMP to go off. :drevil:
Rule 24: Who has watched episode 62 of D. Gray-Man?
Rule 25: Descent ][, final boss. Moron.
Rule 36: Umm, Star Wars again?
Rule 38: Skywalker!
Rule 39: Oh, hi, Sauron. Lost your One Ring? Serves you right. :drevil:
Rule 40: Gundam SEED?
Rule 45: Star Wars again?
Rule 47: Skywalker again, although the problem here is that Darth Vader still has feelings. :blah:
Rule 52: Hogwarts is quite a nice target... :drevil:
Rule 56: Stormtroopers again. They shoot like I do. :blah:
Rule 62: The Death Star as quite a lot of those. In fact, the UNIVERSE has a lot of those.
Rule 69: Star Wars! Obi-Wan! Wesnoth! Delfador! Snow White! Aurora! :wtf:
Rule 75: Classic. Star Wars and Austin Powers again? Throw Agent Aika to the list too, if you've watched a drunk man knock out a group of ladies with his head, a microphone, and his elbow. :drevil:
Rule 80: Star Wars again?
Rule 84: Austin Powers again?

That's everything I an think of. I don't know or forgot the references to the rest. Feel free to add on to this list.

The Evil Overlord List

He's comparing each entry to a movie/game.

Most of those apply to James Bond and Star Wars, tho.

I was eating dinner, dammit. :ick:

I've just found another 156 things the author would do if he were an evil overlord. That's a total of 256 rules.

Re: Peter's Evil Overlord List: Relation to Real Movies or Games
I would set up my base, Commit no initial theft of nuke/experimental weapons or craft in the opening five minutes (Thus leaving no trail for the good guys) develop my own weapon. Make no
demands. Attack without regard indiscriminately, and i mean EVERYTHING. Simply pick up all the gold / treasure riches :)
Campaigns I've added my distinctiveness to-
- Blue Planet: Battle Captains
-Battle of Neptune
-Between the Ashes 2
-Blue planet: Age of Aquarius
-FOTG?
-Inferno R1
-Ribos: The aftermath / -Retreat from Deneb
-Sol: A History
-TBP EACW teaser
-Earth Brakiri war
-TBP Fortune Hunters (I think?)
-TBP Relic
-Trancsend (Possibly?)
-Uncharted Territory
-Vassagos Dirge
-War Machine
(Others lost to the mists of time and no discernible audit trail)

I will provide funding and research to develop a full range of tactical and strategic weapons so my choices are not limited to "hand to hand combat with swords" and "blow up the planet."

Re: Peter's Evil Overlord List: Relation to Real Movies or Games
Ah, yes, I forgot that rule. Also, I believe there was a line about not slaughtering innocents unneccesarily. Therefore, I shall be like Revan, picking my targets carefully, avoiding damage to civilian population centers and economic centers, striking specifically at military targets.

I prefer to be like Malak: Strike hard and with no quarter, nothing vents anger better than total planetary bombardment.

You should never slaughter innocents. They'll just come back and haunt you until you kick it.

They you just make sure to slaughter all the innocents, so there's nobody left to come back. Sheesh, do I need to think of everything?

There'll always be innocents. Might as well just glass all the people not in your organization.

I always thought of Malak like a kid. Just because he couldn't catch Bastila and Revan, he decides to throw a tantrum and nukes Taris.

Brainwashing, my dear Wobble. Brainwashing. Plus a mind control chip for added security.

Re: Peter's Evil Overlord List: Relation to Real Movies or Games
Nu uh. Its brain washing. Not slavery!

Oh you know what, I'll just be nice to all the innocents and be a just and good ruler with a streak of cruelty and evil.
