Messengers are Valuable – Don’t Kill Them, an Evil Overlord Tip!


There is nothing worse then getting bad news, except killing the messenger! An Evil Overlord must have good information in order to thwart the plans of the “Good Guys”. If you kill the messenger you wont ever hear the truth and all of your best laid Evil Plots will come to naught. So with that in mind we continue with our Evil Overlords list after a rather protracted absence.

 

Evil Overlord #32
Tip #32!

This is a very straightforward tip for the burgeoning Evil Overlord amongst you. Having a top notch messenger service could mean the difference between capturing the Hero, or being captured yourself. Treat them with respect and dignity, pay them well and allow them the Illusion of freedom in order to get the best results. You can always have them assassinated in a less conspicuous way if you feel the need. It may not be as satisfying as blasting them to atoms right in front of you but it is better for morale.
