Dark Lord: Game Master's Guide

Softcover, NM Condition, B&W interior
 
In Dark Lord, you play as the Big Bad Evil Guy, leading your minions into battle against the forces of light, and stopping at nothing to conquer the world! Contained herein are all the rules a game master needs to confront a dark council with the forces of light, seeking to defend their homelands' riches from the conquering armies of the shadow!
Players in Dark Lord each play an evil overlord as part of a dark council, but only one player controls their overlord at a time. When you are the dark lord, the other players at the table take the role of your minions. When you are a minion, you must balance boldness and cowardice to maximize your plunder in order to receive mana rewards that you can spend when playing your dark lord. The forces of light are arrayed against you and your dark council, but with enough cunning and tenacity, your reign of terror will be eternal.
Each season begins with a meeting of the dark council, when the dark lords discuss who shall embark upon what adventures. Some adventures will involve sacking towns and villages for their treasure, while others will involve scattering the gathering armies of light before they can strike at your holdings. There’s not as much plunder in driving back the heroes, but someone has to do it or it’s game over for everyone. You can strike a deal with your fellow overlords to fight the heroes in exchange for a cut of the market pillage, but can you trust them to keep their word?
