Okay, if there is anything much less likely to aid one in taking over the world than an army of chocolate soldiers, it has yet to be the subject of such an in depth research topic. These things just suck. They're absolutely useless when employed in such a fashion, and the moron who tries to use them to achieve this end is likely to find himself on the Rikki Lake show, complaining that someone read his mind and produced a Pinky & the Brain episode, and he deserves royalties. In short, if this is the best you can come up with for taking over the world, you are in all likelihood the kind of person who would be quite good at ruling the world. As long as you have a hunchbacked assistant to wipe the drool off your chin, you freak. | Okay, if there is anything much less likely to aid one in taking over the world than an army of chocolate soldiers, it has yet to be the subject of such an in depth research topic.

A Treatise on World Domination Tactics
Notes on Being an Evil Overlord
Equipment
okay, we've seen how important henchmen are going to be to you budding young sociopaths, and so today we'll look at one of the other things you are going to need for people to take you seriously. What is it, you ask? Simple
Equipment.
Now do not snigger, and enough with the, "wellm if you have the equipment, you wouldn't be so insecure as to have to impose your will on others" spiel. No, what I refer to are the toys and tools of the operssor of today. Again, we'lll look at some of the most important groupings, in no particular order.
Transportation
OK, now a dictator in a Lada is going to get mocked out of the game and fair enough too. A would-be conquerer has to be seen in something that speaks of raw Masculinity. Even if it is a woman. Masculinity is all in a vehicle, whatever the type.
For preference, you're going to want an aircraft, and we are not talking about a Cessna here, we're looking for something special. Try a small cargo jet, but put guns on it, paint it black, and don't forget to paint flames on it. No flames, no kudos. This way you can fly places with your bodyguards (including the Ice Bitch -- make sure there's a comfy chair for her, or else she'll be grumpy) and possible even the odd Goon to bring you a wine cooler during the flight. However, if you're just setting out, aircraft could well be out of your budget. (Some people have been known to attempt World Domination on $10 pocket money a week, although there have been no reported successes to date). So you may have to look elsewhere.
Another idea is a hovercraft, more correctly known asa GEV (Ground Effect Vehicle). Also GEV sounds hellishly technical and hivercraft doesn't. With one of these things, you're going to have a hard time getting around the carpark at the 7-11, but people are going to be scared of you. Especially beach-goers, as you can churn them into sand and run down surfers if you're particularly annoyed. For a GEV, the best thing to do for visual effect is to paint it black, with flames on the engine cowlings. Best to put some guns on it too.
If you are to insist on ground-based transportation, make damn sure it's something imposinglike an articulated tractor/trailer, preferably painted black, with flames on it. Try to put guns on it somewhere. Sports cars don't really work as it's hard to take a schoolroom full of hostages in a two-seater. However, a sports car does fit neatly into the bacl of said big truck. (WARNING: If you do this, avoid black leather pants with large belt-buckles, or else you may end up as an actor/singer 10 years down the road. This must be avoided at all costs.)
Tanks are a vaguely popular choice, but they're a little hard to get a road permit for, and rarely, if ever, fit in a family garage. Intensive research suggests a compromise...
The M39 Fox. These babies are jsut right. Made in Germany, lots of wheels, overpressured so they make a *whoosh* noise when you open the door, and quite imposing looking. Room for a small goon squad inside too. These babies could almost look cool if painted green with the words "Mystery Machine" painted on them. Almost. And nothing else would come close ... However we suggest you paint it black, with flames coming out of the wheel wells, put a gun on it too. One or two -- what the hell, you deserve it.
Firepower
Chocolate Soldiers
I've been thinking a little recently about certain nefarious plots for world domination, and I thought I'd share the fruits of some of my research with you...
The angle I've taken for researching a possible method of world domination is this:
Complete control through a reign of terror, backed up by an army of chocolate soldiers.
Now, this is certainly one of the more unusual methods, but by no means unthinkable. So, after a certain amount of running around asking people strange questions, getting poked in the eye a lot and occasionally bought a beer and patted on the head with the phrase "there there, it'll all seem better soon" ringing in my ears.... I present some of my findings, loosely organised under three headings.
World Domination through the use of an army of Chocolate Soldiers.
Pros:
- Cheap to replace when they take horrible losses.
- Logistics -- food especially -- not a problem.
- The element of surprise...
- Corruption of the young, in preparation for a really insidious takeover next generation...
- Generally unrebellious force, unlikely to stage a coup and overthrow you.
- A tasty treat if everything's going really badly.

Cons:
- Not very scary.
- Can't carry guns, and small candy spears don't really hurt a lot, no matter how many you get hit by.
- Low morale a common problem amongst confectionery militia.
- All attempts to subdue Opelika, AL have met with heavy resistance, with no bodies recovered to date...
- Hot weather an operational limitation, as is excess humidity.
- Mobilization is a problem, unless many Kinder Suprise (for aircraft/sailing vessels) are purchased.
- Inability to withstand enemy fire of any kind.
- Many tactical limitations tied to being 3 inches high.
- Inability to understand complex strategic or tactical issues.
- Basically, completely bloody worthless.
