if you where planning world domination...

[Novajam]

I've got a friend who keeps on planning world domination in his math book. His plan is to build a doom base on the dark side of the moon or Antarctica or something with a ten-thousand strong army of tanks, planes etc.

He also carries a flip knife around everwhere and keeps complaining that he only got a B in Art.

 

[PwnStar]

Switzerland.

Send a message that neutrality is not an option.

good thinking, gain control of the money defended by knife wielding weaklings LOL

(I know the swiss are all armed to the teeth btw its a joke ..)

Ah, the never ending war of good against neutral...

It's a beige alert!

I'd use the I'd sabotage a large number of oil fields and use the ensuing economic chaos to start my own theocracy right here in the USA. Hopefully, it'd go like this:

1. Have a vision. It's so much easier to make people do things when they think your the son of God.

2. Aggresively recruit hard-liners. The more militant followers you have, the harder it is for moderates to ignore you.

3. Once you gain power in an area, form a gang. Martial law makes it harder to be suppressed. If you get enough 'cells' in a region, have them form together to make a government. Be sure to enforce many arbitrary laws to discourage dissent. Make sure that you keep pumping your own gospel so people don't get bored or scared.

4. Expand until the national government begins to recognize you and enacts a whole bunch of blue laws for you. Use televangelism to spread your message to everyone.

5. After a few years of indoctrination, run for president. Continue to give impassioned rants and sermons to keep momentum. Once in office, tighten the grip.

6. Brush up on psychology. Make sure you know what makes man tick. Appeal to his desires and to his fears. Use the threat of eternal punishment or a secret police to keep them in line. Don't forget to edit history.

7. Launch paramilitary missionaries into other countries and repeat.

This works best if you can start it in religiosly sensitve areas like the Middle East or places where religion is a primary unifying factor, like the Southern United States. Having a nice base of operations for your state will be important for the next steps.

8. Once you've got your hands on most of the population, begin extermination campaigns. Take out other creeds and arbitrarily designate people as infidels while praising those near your BoO as 'chosen by God'. While you've got the populace frothing mad, tighten the secret police's grip via improved surveillence and propaganda.

9. Once you've purged the dissenters, use the threat of atomics to keep your far flung empire in check.

Now, you can either keep your rosy little theocracy running or you can take it down and make something else up. To do that:

10. After you've indoctrinated the world for a couple of decades. Fake your own death. Have your cronies state that you were ascending to heaven and then fire off some of your atomics.

11. While the populace reels from both the loss of their prophet and the bombings, sweep in to provide aid under a new guise.

12. The tragedy should shake their faith enough to keep them out of crusades but enough so that they're unified beyond tribal boundaries.

13. After you get more and more people under your banner, go out and take out what little resistance remains. Odds are the more fervent of your followers will not take too kindly to you and need to get whacked.

^ worked out well for Japan


If I were planning world domination I would attack economies first, stockmarkets... bring countries to their knees economically and they won't resist as much to a war cause they'll be concerned with their own problems...

War drives an economy. Lets not forget what mess the US economy was in before somthing called the second world war came about and fixed.

 

[Easykill]

You copy/pasted that from the other world domination thing, didn't you Galt?

 

[Conqueror Kenny]

Oooooo Galt is soo busted.

Everyone.

He's got the idea.

The Germans and the British weren't exactly rolling in money either; what with Germany's crippling inflation and Britain being defended by geriatrics.

 

[Crudler]

Living in Britain I reckon I'd go ahead and subjugate Greenland and make it into my fortress of doom (call it the palace of light for PR sakes).
Move to the west and gradually take over America etc. Oh there was something about a secret Atlantic base which I'd name Atlantis. You should see the front of my notebook with the map in, that's got all the plans.

 

[Meshakhad_v1legacy]

The Internet would be my first conquest. I would turn all of you into my minions, and then invade reality.

My first target in reality would be Las Vegas. I would destroy it as an example, to cow the world.

 

[defcon 1]

Africa [http://www.amazon.com/Stealing-Network-How-Own-Continent/dp/1931836051]

Something like that.

 

[Churchman]

Tanks, missiles, and gold.

Or I could just play evil genius

 

[Darth Brownie]

I'd ally myself with other country to destroy their enemies, then have them help me with my own enemies, rally more and more people to finally be a strong alliance that control the world. Then I'll take full power on the alliance by being the only leader who hasn't been killed in really odd circumstances...

O.O

I would introduce crack and aids into their populations to undermine their ability to resist and put flouride into their water supply to make them more doccile and controllable

 

[hazakura]

Well,this is what I would do.

1.Get some large financial advisers,Including hard core Soviets.
2.Go to the former soviet union,and buy cold war era battle ships,Submarines,and Migs(yes its very possible to do that ).
3.At the same time I would have some men light Iraq's oil fields on fire,
4.I would position Battle ships so they can hit D.C.
5.I would also position ships along the west side of the U.S.
6.At dawn I would open fire on the capital.
7.I would Launch The Mig 14's to intercept The U.S. forces,which would be trying to pull out of Iraq to defend home.
8.At the Same time I would have diplomacy with Middle eastern countries,Once the oil fires have been put out I would Embargo The U.S's Oil supply.
9.With the united states crippled,I Would ask for unconditional surrender in order to aid there economic situation.
10.With The united states under my control,I would take A large amount of thermonuclear Weapons,and Bury them in crucial parts of the world(Mecca,Oil fields,South Africa,)
all able to be set off with a remote detonation.
11.Next I would ask my new countries for a "holy crusade" across Europe.
12. with United States Technology I would ask Britons surrender.
13.With these Two large military suppliers I would Sweep through Europe.
14.I would stop and wait 5 years.
15.I would continue to conquer,taking no unnecessary risks.
16.After the worlds land mass is conquered,I would ban all unnecessary weapons
17.I would set up a constitutional Monarchy*
18.I would rule with Benevolence,not fear.
19.I would Increase Funding of the Arts and Technology.
20.I would build wonders,and not be prejudice to any race,so as not to cause a riot.
21.I would be considered a king,that is loved, not feared(I would also make sure people know I have military authority. )

*The buried Nuclear weapons are to threaten the world,If I was assassinated

Sorry,I'm into strategy and I've given this some thought.
