Peter's Evil Overlord List

This Evil Overlord List grew out of the exchanges on what is now the Star Trek mailing list "shields-up@spies.com", beginning in 1994 (when it was still "startrek@cs.arizona.edu"). We were kicking around cliches that appeared on "Deep Space 9" at the time, and I started to compile a list of classic blunders they were making. On November 12, 2002, I exchanged some emails with Jack Butler who has a list on his website. Apparently both lists were compiled during overlapping periods of time. I believe Jack Butler when he says the list on his website is the current form of the James Bond Villain list, and I thank him for helping to clarify matters. -- Peter Anspach Being an Evil Overlord seems to be a good career choice. and This web page has been given the following awards:

Tradewinds Caravans Game for Apple Macintosh Tradewinds Caravans 3.5 5 4 4 picaresque adventures and quirky characters With gameplay this simplistic and repetitive, Tradewinds Caravans proves to be much more entertaining than it deserves. All you do is waddle around the map, back and forth between locations, to complete tasks, trade goods at the best prices and reinforce your small army to boot out highway robbers. Click, click, click. In its defense, the lack of challenging puzzles do give your brain a break if you need it. Silk Road pirates A nice variation from sailing. Could have been better I loved all the Tradewinds games. Worst Tradewinds Game Ever Made!

The SCP Foundation Le Monde de Greyhawk Sur les rives brumeuses de l’océan Dramidj, à l’extrémité de la grande route commerciale qui unit l’Orient et l’Occident le long de la Velverdyva et de la Tuflik, s’étend un pays fertile et verdoyant : le califat d’Ekbir. Ce pays, puissant et prospère, brandit très haut l’étendard de la Foi, de la Justice et du Courage. Les hommes d’Ekbir sont hantés par le souvenir d’un passé glorieux, tragiquement englouti dans l’horreur de la dévastation invoquée. Cependant, sous la conduite d’Al’Akbar, la civilisation sut renaître avec éclat. Ekbir perpétue ainsi brillamment les anciennes traditions artistiques et magiques de l’empire baklunien, grâce notamment à l’une des plus puissantes organisations de magie du Monde, le Zashassar d’Ekbir, gardien des secrets de jadis. Mais c’est la Foi exaltée qui rythme aujourd’hui la vie du Califat. La page régionale d’Ekbir sur le site RPGA (Wizards of the Coast)
