Advice for the Evil Overlord:

I will have my fortress exorcised regularly. Although ghosts in the dungeon provide an appropriate atmosphere, they tend to provide valuable information once placated.

Advice for the Hero:

Mountains and castles that are shaped like skulls, hideous faces, fists, etc., are the very Lairs of Evil. All visits will be planned accordingly.

Advice for the Bad Auxiliary Character (Evil Overlord's Trusted Lieutenant):

If you find the Evil Overlord's beautiful daughter consorting with the hero, take her bribes but turn her in.

Advice for the Good Auxiliary Character (Good Guy's One True Love):

If someone capable of feeling pain covers my mouth with their hand, I will make use of my pearly whites at the moment when my captor can least afford to be distracted.

Further Evil (Advice on Fortress Construction):

If possible, no exhaust ports should lead directly to the heart of the reactor core. If that is unavoidable, all such exhaust ports should have closeable reinforced blast doors at every other level, and alternate routes of venting in case of emergency.

Murphy's Laws of Combat:

• The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire.
• The enemy never monitors your radio frequency until you broadcast on an unsecured channel.
• When both sides are convinced that they are about to lose, they are both right.
• The seriousness of a wound is inversely proportional to the distance to any form of cover.
