    1. Actor – 8 actually quite good, I like his reserved style.
    2. Sadism – 8 keelhauling, he certainly seems to enjoy it.
    3. Villain’s Scheme - 8 pretty good cold-war manipulator
    4. Physically Menacing – 5 not really
    5. Dialogue – 7 here he is a bit of a letdown, I think they could've done better.

    Sorry to interject here, folks, but I am an occasional reader of this thread (as opposed to a contributor) and I couldn't help noticing Eric Kriegler is mentioned as Kristatos' henchperson.

    I always thought that Kristatos' main henchman in FYEO was one Emile Leopold Locate, no? Kriegler was less a personal Kristatos henchman and more of a KGB go-between or contact for General Gogol and Aris Kristatos. I of course agree that he is yet another Grant clone and that he may feature more prominently in henchman form, but Locque is clearly meant to be working directly for Kristatos, whereas Kriegler is a East German KGB liaison man.

    I'd be interested in hearing the reasoning behind the choice of Kriegler as the main henchman of FYEO. :)

    I agree, but I just went along without questioning authority ;)

    Locque would get a higher vote than Kriegler though.

    Good catch @Dragonpol!

    Tbh, I completely forgot about dear old Locque. He's just a man with glasses. Pardon, octagonal glasses.

    Should I include Locque instead of Kriegler? The combined readership of this game can decide!

    Calling @DarthDimi, @Birdleson, @GoldenGun, @CommanderRoss, @vzok, @GBF and @barryt007 et al!

    You have until tomorrow to decide. Good evening gentlemen.

    To be fair he is pretty forgettable, although I like the back down to Earth nature of the character very much of course. No need to change the game though.

    'a nose, not a banana Q!'. I agree with @Draggers, Loque would score higher as well...

    I agree that Locque is the better henchman. He would get 3/5. Anyway I think it would be better to vote for the whole range of henchpersons since some have not a single but some memorable. And it is the whole set of them which makes them great...

    Locque is rather sinister in his silence, but I think Kriegler is still there at the end so he is a suitable choice as a henchman for FYEO. Shame he’s a bit dull.

    Yes, well I agree like all good henchmen he is there to the end. I think that the writers of FYEO wanted to make the villains more grounded again after the most outlandish villains in TSWLM and MR and in that they certainly succeeded! It was a good thing.

    Plus Kriegler is blonde and has a fight with Bond. Ergo, he stays! Thanks gents.

    It's not worth mucking about with the game,best to leave it as it is.

    Yes, exactly, and there can only be one henchman in the bonus round, under the rules. That's as far as I can tell as something of an onlooker. ;)

    2. Sadism –7 funny thing is, he doesn't even do that much, but the pleasure he takes in the man hunt, and as said the way he's talking about it while enjoying the sheep's head, give him a lot of credit in this department.
    3. Villain’s Scheme – 10 cool cold-war story with a lovely cover.
