Thanks for posting that. Its great to know about things like that.

I was considering posting a note that Alexa shows a large increase in traffic and linkages to www.illwinter.com but it didnt seem worth noting all by itself.

Now I wonder what this review will do to their poor overworked web site.

Excellent! Always nice to see something other than eye-candy occupying the pages of a major gaming mag. Dom II is certainly deserving.

Related to this, in CGW this month Tom Chick and Bruce G play a game of Dominions 2 in that end of the mag section.

Just a note - in the same issue of Computer Gaming World with the three-page Tom vs. Bruce article, Dom2 is reviewed and gets 4 1/2 stars (out of 5 possible).
