Where would you build your evil fortress?

[Leemaster777]

You are now an evil would-be conqueror of the world. Where is your evil base of operations?

You can go with any time period, universe, or place you choose.

Present day? Or maybe the far future? Or past? Perhaps a nice, cozy spot on the moon? Or deep space? Or parallel dimension? How about something a bit more underground?

Me? I'm going with a James Bond-style volcano-doom fortress. Complete with henchmen in silver space suits, scantily-clad female ninja assassins, and my own personal formula for the worldwide destruction of corn.

And you?

I'd build my evil lair on the Galapagos islands. I'd attach laser beams to my evil komodo dragons, I'd fashion armor for my evil dragon warriors using the shells from Galapagos tortoises.

In a volcano, no one would think to go in there and it would be pretty cool

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

Exmoor/Dartmoor... with a complex of imported medeivil castles on adjacent hills... Then if push comes to shove you could re-flood Somerset/Devon, killing the opposing hordes and then draining the land around your castle islands again in order to gain back your land...

Tactic also works on peasants if they become to expensive to feed... or for an instant wakeboarding site... Gnarly..!

The main part of it would be the nice-looking castle on top of the hill. The rest of it would be the hill. I would also have a teleporter system that would be able to take me to the smaller base on the moon.

I already have a headquarters. It's a fortified mansion that is held underwater. In it i have several divisions of operation each fitted with henchmen. I also have my private quarters stocked with a harem of beautiful women and things to keep them satisfied. It's a good time and i conduct most of my business deals from there.

I'd build mine in Southport, UK.

The thick layer of weed smoke would mask it from satellite imagery and precision air strikes.

Eyjafjallajökull, Iceland

 

[MrFalconfly]

In LEO (Low Earth Orbit).

And it should be complete with a GDI Ion Cannon killsat and JSF Rods From God (Tungsten Kinetic Kill Vehicles), and some droppods for my minions.

The witley park estate in england it's a long abandoned manor house with a HUGE underwater dome underneath it!

Perfect hiding. No one would be able to say where you live.

 

[Riddle78]

In the middle of the armpit of nowhere in Ontario. The mountains and forests would provide ample cover from prying eyes,and the Canadian Shield is rich with resources. Set up shop there,and I shall dominate the world with my army of elite soldiers! None shall stand before my might!

 

[TheTechnomancer]

I'd hide in a secret underground lair where the only access tunnels come out in Scotland Yard, the pentagon and Mt Fuji. No one will ever think to look for me there.

 

[Rumpsteak]

Somewhere like Nepal, directly underneath my fake evil fortress.

 

[Esotera]

Basically, anywhere on this list:

If anyone wants to join me in a coup attempt, then they're perfectly welcome to help me enslave the natives. It's about time this site had its own country.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Switzerland. No one would ever think to look for me there.

It's pronounced throatwarbler mangrove.
