Re: Armored Brigade (upcoming wargame)
Usenet newsgroups. They are older than internet.
The easiest way to get to them (though it pains this oldtime netter to say so) is thru groups.google.com with your browser. But like many things on the net, if you get hooked then there is a better way thru specialized software for doing newsgroups. There are newsgroups for all kinds of game types.
By "real marketing" if you mean on the shelves and lots of paid advertising then you are probably correct. But there are levels that dont involve quite that much investment. Personal distribution is an option thru PoD sites such as CafePress if you want to take everything on yourself.
Or even better if you can get the attention of someone like Shrapnel which was started by a game developer to offer options other than having to take chances with those big animals. Shrapnel would be online ordering and publicity. They do really well at both and it doesnt force you to wait for years to pay back costs before seeing profits. Just IMHO of course. You would need to talk to them about it.
