A BROB gives you the chance to take over the world, to do this he is going to give you an army that will obey your every command. He says that as long as he feels like you're making good progress in taking over the world, he'll prevent you from aging or catching any diseases, though you can still be killed violently. Should you manage to get 10 million people under your rule (aside from the army itself), he will give you supernatural powers based upon your army selection that will make it virtually impossible to kill you. You can select from any of the following armies. Zombies With a touch, you can turn a corpse into a zombie. Each one has virtually no intelligence but you can command it with a thought if you can see the zombie. If the zombie gets outside of your visual range, they will follow the last command you gave them or just kill any human they see if given no commands. They are 50% stronger than humans, 50% less fast and dexterous, and extremely difficult to kill. To take down a zombie you must hack it to pieces, cut off its dead, or otherwise pulverize the body until it is useless. As undead, they are immune to poison, disease, thirst, hunger, fatigue, though they decay normally. Zombies carry an infection plague that can be spread with bites, scratches, or through bodily fluids. Anybody exposed to a zombie this way will become infected with the plague and will die within a week's time, rising as a zombie within an hour after death. Any human killed by a zombie will rise as a zombie as well. You are immune to this plague as is anybody who drinks a teaspoon of your blood or more. Also, those who have had that much of your blood will not be attacked by zombies, nor will any zombie attack you. You can control any zombie created through the plague just as if you had created it yourself. You get the supernatural enhancement from having 1,000,000 or more zombies, not necessarily human subjects. Tribesmen You get 50,000,000 stone age hunter gatherer people from what ever culture you desire. Half will be males and half females, there will be no children among the group and they will all be young adults. They must be based on a real people who existed or do still exist today. They have the same skills that they would have to survive their lifestyle, including warrior training for all of the men. They all understand English as well as their native language and you gain the ability to speak their language as well. Though they do not have any skills that would be useful in a modern high tech world, they can learn as any human can. They are all loyal to you and will obey your every command. These people will appear where ever you want them to, as spread out as your desire, as long as it is outside and on public property. For every group of tribesmen, one amoung them will be a shaman, wise man, mystic, whatever who can hear your telepathic commands. Daemons You get 10,000 40K style lesser daemons to serve you, or 15,000 if all of the daemons are of the same Chaos God. You can exchange lesser daemons for other kinds of daemons as well, at the following rate Beast of Nurgle, Fiend of Slaanesh, Hound of Khorne, or Furry of Chaos: 2 daemons Juggernaut of Khorne, Screamer of Tzeentch, Disk of Tzeentch, or Flamer of Tzeentch: 5 daemons Steed of Slaanesh 1 per 1 Nurglings: 10 nurglings per lesser daemon Greater Daemons: 5000 lesser daemons, only 1 allowed. The daemons all have superhuman physical prowess and combat ability. They also have human like or higher intelligence and the ability to learn and adapt as humans can. When a daemon is destroyed, it reforms a week later at your location or a location predetermined by you, which must be marked with Chaos symbols. For every 100,000 subjects you have, you may have an additional lesser daemon. Gang Members You have 10,000,000 gang members who are loyal to you. These will be mostly males, at least 80% and the other 20% is your choice, who have the same mentality, abilities, and fighting prowess as your typical American inner city gang members such as Crips or Bloods, though these followers will not identify with any real world gang and will follow your rule. Each starts with a pistol of his choice, 1000 rounds of ammo, and $5000 to spend on other things - though groups can pool together their money for more expensive possessions. Each also gets a cell phone with which they can use to contact their immediate leader or underlings and which with the leaders can use to keep in touch with you. You can have have this army be spread out in what ever way you desire, but they must begin in large cities. A Genestealer You begin with a single genestealer. Any human who is injected with the genestealer's ovipositor becomes a brood brother or sister, and thus loyal to you and the genestealer that created it. The children of those who are injected are hybrid genestealers and grow up to be able to grow the Genestealer Cult as well. Once you have 1000 or more members in the cult, the genestealer becomes a patriarch and becomes too large to move as quickly, though its intellect increases and it develops psychic powers such as the ability to read minds or see far off places. All members of the genestealer cult worship you and the patriarch as gods, and will obey your orders completely and fearlessly. Von Neumann Robot You get 1 single robot which stands 8 feet tall, has the strength of 10 men, normal human physical speed and dexterity, with computer like thinking ability and reaction speed, and armor like a light tank. This machine can't really think for itself, but is essentially a very powerful computer and will obey commands as effectively as a human would in most circumstances. It is totally obedient to you and can learn a large variety of tasks. It also has the knowledge and ability to create more of itself from commonly available materials (effectively from computers, cars, scrap steel, etc.) It will take the robot 5 years to create another of its type if it does so alone and without help, two robots working together can create a new one in half the time. The robot is powered by water, by stripping the hydrogen from the water and fusing it - they require about a gallon of water per month of operation. Sharing the technology for this robot with the world so that it can be mass produced, making yourself rich, does not constitute trying to take over the world in and of itself. Though you may use money earned from the robot to fund your military exploits. A captured robot can be reverse engineered given enough time and resources from a sufficiently advanced organization. Klingons You get 20,000,000 Klingon warriors in your service. They are all highly skilled with the bat'leth and have above average physical prowess even for Klingons. They come to earth distributed where ever you like as long as its not on private property or indoors. They start with a bat'leth, one other Klingon melee weapon, and a Klingon disruptor, which can be recharged from wall outlets (with a converter each Klingon has) but cannot be reverse engineered. All of the Klingons have communicators which allow you to communicate with them over any distance but that likewise cannot be reverse engineered.
To be fair, they could do a lot of damage to places without preparation time. If a city was suddenly mobbed by hunting tribes, a lot of people would die. Given that they could learn to use whatever we use given time, they'd be armed with guns pretty soon too.
Make them American Indians, have them appear around Washington DC saying that they are ancestors who have returned from the spirit world and they want their land back.
Von Neumann Robot. Scrap yard will become my favorit hobby for the next few decades, while I have the robot help in building a few products that can help with my monetary situation and possibly set up a small business.
Twenty million badass Klingon warriors, each with a Bat'leth and a disrupter pistol. That is really just an absurd amount of pointy, burny death for me to command.
the problem is the invading force would be the poorer for all the attendants I would demand. that is almost too trollish not to try.
Part of me wants to start the Zombie Apocalypse (ZAs) just to see what would happen, I mean come on. Who wouldn't want to be Patient Zero in a ZAs. Normally I'm against ZAs but this looks really entertaining. I'm gonna go with the Gangster option though. With each member having 5 thousand dollars and being completely loyal to me we collectively have 50 billion dollars. I'll just order each of them to deposit 1000 dollars into my bank account. Hell 100 dollars would still make me a billionaire. With this much money I can become a powerful public figure/private figure. I'll use my gang to take over the Northeastern underworld of Canada and the United states as population alone ensures I win. From there on I do whatever I want. Maybe I'll move to the US and run for the Governor of a state. In fact I'll do exactly that. I'll move to Connecticut, sign myself up as an Independent and have 2 million of my Gangster members vote for me. I'll win by a landslide as the youngest Governor in US history. After a view years as Governor I'll run for Senator and vote the other two out of office so I can vote in a puppet. Heck, I don't even need to stop being Governor and I can still vote in puppets. Honestly ruling the world is a hard and fruitless job. As a billionaire playboy I'll have a lot more fun.
You know what, I take over the entire region of New England and unofficially declare myself the Regional Governor. My gang of 10 million is just 2 million shy of being half the population. I'm sure as a multibillionaire I can convince 4 million idiots to do as I want. I'll give them jobs. Once I have their votes in my pocket I combine the 6 states into one so it doesn't look suspicious that my people keep winning the election from the new political party I'm gonna create. From there I consolidate my power and eventually run for President.
Yes... yes he did. I'm going with the Genestealer. No chance of Tyranids showing up hopefully, but I can gain some impressive psychic powers with the Genestealer... genes floating around my blood stream and then all I need to do is target Scientology with my Genestealer, claim him as Xenu and I become Space Pope.
Genestealers. It'll take a decade or five, but my eventual victory is assured. Infect a large base of people (to begin getting the numbers up and a income base) then begin taking over. Take over a hospital to give easy access to implant more people, then start taking control of governments. I'd expect to control the UK in a decade and expand exponentially from there.
Genestealer, it's the most subtle and largely effective route. Begin infecting people in important positions (but not too important) work on a small scale for the first hundred years or so, by then I should be looking at the first new-generation purestrain Genestealers and can begin spreading more effectively. Is the plan a long-term one? Yes. Certainly. Is it going to be effective? Very.
Going with Klingons. Sure there are several choices that would be a lot more effective at actually conquering the world but my Klingons will make a big messy show of it and maybe even take some ground now and again so that'll keep the ROB happy. Meanwhile, its party time.
I'm sure that after bringing 10 million jobless gang members, with barely any money to their names, into New England to support you that the original inhabitants will absolutely love you
Robot - too slow and can be reverse enginered. Gang - a crapload of people and money (50 bln $), but the comms are crap as soon as you go against any half decent military, and the troop quality is very worrying - "who have the same mentality, abilities, and fighting prowess as your typical American inner city gang members such as Crips or Bloods. Unless you find a way to drastically increase your forces, you could conquer just one or a few small or mid sized first world countries, but as soon as you get a decent military power to fight you, you are as good as dead. Not to even mention USA, Russia or China. Klingons - as above, might work a bit better than the gang. Tribesmen - As above, but with no above stone age military hardware. Not a chance. Zombies - could have a chance, assuming you get a country scale plague before a government finds out it's your fault. Genestealer - easy mode. These fuckers are hard to detect with 40k tech and security measures, and half the time when they are detected, the it's too late for solution other than exterminatus. Daemons - take a greater one = childsplay mode. A decent greater daemon takes a Grey Knight team to kill. No Grey Knights in modern world, see where this goes? A greater daemon who listens to a sane human? Even in 40k the Inquisition would wonder what should it do first - crap their pants, send Grey Knights, declare exterminatus on your ass, send assasins at you or beg you to join. Probably go with a greater daemon of Tzeentch or Slaanesh, because advanced mindfuckery is what you need.
