Just leave Wrex with me and I've got no problem with you.

You intend to destroy reality. I can't allow that. If Wrex works under me but still with misko, it helps me and hurts you. If Wrex gets two infinite planes to rampage across, it helps him and hurts the baatzeu and tanar'ri.  I see no benefit to letting Wrex help you, at all. My dedication to not destroying the world would be enough to earn your ire no?

misko, you can't be everywhere. You can't do everything. Unless you decide who makes what, who buys what, and how well they do with everything, for everyone, market forces will still cause a 100% command economy to fail on this kind of scale. You need some competition. Competition is a free way to increase quality and lower prices.

They will be asssigned there place and categorized in the Buerocracy.

And they will do the minimum they can, as they will have no reason to do more. Free markets with competition among workers and firms encourage better work and reduce your personal workload, allowing you to focus on, say, purging the heretics or whatever.
Also, when have you heard of an efficient bureaucracy?

Your dedication to not destroying the world does nothing to me. How about this? After I destroy creation, I set Aperture aside in one reality and Wrex in another, which has different levels a la Eversion with different things to kill for each level. Do whatever you want past then; just leave Wrex with me.

Gold dragon. Always Lawful Good.
Also, I signed up for this final-boss game to save the world.

I haven't. However, most Bureaucracies aren't ruled with a iron hand by a Omni-present all powerful Deity. Besides, do you really think the vast majority of those at low-level jobs put anything more then the minimal effort into their work? Higher jobs automatically inspire interest, besides, now we can sort people by how much effort they'll put into their work. No more picking a job just because it pays good.

If you're so omnipotent, why is the lichette still "alive?"
Anyways, look at Soviet Russia.

why do you want Wrex so bad?

He's the only of Xantalos's minions I'm aware of a way to buy off.
Anyways, misko, isn't Xantalos's goal of destroying reality directly opposed to your goal of ruling the universe?

I made a bargain. I
DON'T.
GO BACK.
ON BARGAINS.

You don't need to. All I care about is Wrex changing... sub-sides, I guess.

An offer was what I made her. It was her fault that she didn't ask if I'd betray her.

And if she did what would you have said?

He would have broken his word to someone, that's for sure.

Well, I'd have obviously lied. What do I look like, a being that ISN'T dedicated to destroying reality (so it can be started anew)?

Are you planning to betray me?

He wants to destroy all you want to rule, of course he will!

I'd approve, but it would do almost nil to either!

To answer your question, no it wouldn't work, as vermin remains are simply non-animatable, just like meat.

We are debating. And bidding. Would you want your new regime to be a Commie one, because that doesn't work well.

You need to have the aptitude, you can't learn it.

No. I'm offering Wrex his dimensions specifically to convince him to help me prevent you from destroying all of existence.
