Essay:Really dumb mistakes made by evil 'geniuses'

Things to avoid doing

 * 1) Dress your really powerful troops in bright white, clunky uniforms and send them out into a thickly forested area.
 * 2) Hiring droids with an accidental sense of humor.
 * 3) Putting the reactor in the same area as the hanger bay, and then leaving the door open.
 * 4) Making your high-tech, powerful vehicles have a high center of balance and then sending them out to fight in a rainforest.
 * 5) Having a son. This is always a bad idea. Make sure you are not his father, or you will save him at the last moment and get killed.
 * 6) Using weapons that have cool looking laser effects if the actual combat performance is poor. Because pleptomatics are more important then functionality, isn't it?
 * 7) Equipping your soldiers in full body armor that provide no protection, hinders movement and then not using chemical weapons.
 * 8) Show off your new super-secret superweapon.
 * 9) Make a list on a public wiki detailing all your things to do and not to do.
