well, it does involve a one-sided nuclear war (maybe), potential for MASSIVE casualty rates, the invasion of Canada, infiltration of Central America (potentially through drug trafficking?), and a pyramid scheme

hmmm, yes he is an official member, though he is somewhat... expendable.

I'm keeping him for now as advisory staff (every king needs an adviser), though he won't have any decision making responsibilities.

... if only you hadn't been ousted (dam buffalo penis)... we could plot for you to regain control of Central America perhaps...
 
May I humbly suggest an alternate strategy?...
 
First, take over the vineyards and buffalo ranches in any given area you wish to conquer.
Second, offer free glasses of wine and hors d'oeuvres of buffalo penises to those who join the great state of AR - I suspect the acceptance of a new ruler will be quick and encompassing, especially if you use a nice cabernet and AAA penises.
Third, move to the next area.
Fourth, repeat steps one through three. 
 
Remember the golden rule of war, when conquering a hostile force ensure that the vineyards and buffalo ranches are not damaged.
 
My liege, I offer my neck and should you find my comments distasteful, please lop my head off.
 
Your humble servant, FP.
 
Long live Atomic Rooster!


Excellent, this could work... until we run out of buffalo, but for the time being you shall be made my Secretary/Minister of Buffalo Penis and Fine Wine Strategy

and yes, you can have a Cabernet

Can I be considered intelligent? 

EIDT:  I also do karate (first degree black belt).  Might that be useful in say..taking over America (or whatever it was that you were plotting...)?
EDIT:  I spelled Edit wrong the first time^


You're in for misspelling Edit and your karate skillz could come in useful... or if not you could at least be my meat shield

Well, if you think it'd be helpful for you, I would love to rule the Southern Western Hemisphere.
 
I could always give it another try, sure.

Give up? No no  just be careful. And that WOULD have been great.
But, how long could we co rule the Hemisphere before one of us, probably you, tries to take over the rest?
