Advice for the Evil Overlord:

If I am recruiting to find someone to run my computer systems, and my choice is between the brilliant programmer who's head of the world's largest international technology conglomerate and an obnoxious 15-year-old dork who's trying to impress his dream girl, I'll take the brat and let the hero get stuck with the genius.

Advice for the Starship Captain:

I will not depart the starbase unless my complement of Marines are on board.

Advice for the Bad Auxiliary Character (Evil Cult Member):

If the ritual site has some strange powder sprinkled around that wasn't there the last time, postpone all ceremonies until the site is verified.

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

I will never take a vow to marry only someone who can defeat me. I will learn of any laws which limit my marriage options and work towards their repeal. I will decided when and who I marry, thank you very much.

Further Evil (Advice for the Evil Empress):

Sex is certainly a weapon at my disposal, but then so is a blaster. If it is not clear which weapon I should be using, I will opt for the blaster.

Murphy's Laws of Combat:

• Radar tends to fail at night and in bad weather, and especially during both.
• Tolerances accumulate unidirectionally toward maximum difficulty.
• The crucial round is a dud.
• The more the weapon costs, the farther away you will have to send it to be repaired.
