another way of looking at it would be along the lines of what edratum suggested. it is pure marketing forced by capitalist endeavor. I don't want to open that can of worms. But while some Pmod critics claim that modernism is more of a 'counterfeit culture' than an actual 'counter culture' (similar to Sombre's position), others claim that fault lies not with modernism or Pmodernism, but with capitalism. Capitalism creates the necessity for the boundlessness reflected in modernism.

I had to blink a couple times to realize that wasn't a bare nipple, myself. At first glance she looks naked.

Wow, it IS official.

I don't know what I should think about that, but in case anyone else wonders... Yes, it does appear as one of the ads on top of the page, eventually.

Good point.

I agree, She should be hugging a bog beast, or a cyclops doll (talk about suggestive..) or something. But I mean hey, its not like you can show the battle graphics and say "best looking game award 1985!"

Its hard to advertise "THE DEEPEST STRAT GAME YOU HAVE EVER PLAYED!!"

but I agree. I like women, and boobs. but I have a girlfriend, I dont need an add with one. :O though it is especially humorous

Edit: It should at least say something like "Dominions 3: With 10% more women!" (because we added a new faction of giant women or something)

This guy figured it out.

I thought the add was funny.

So where do Dominion 3 players like her hang out.

I dunno about the ad. It doesn't explain anything about what Dominions 3 is. I suppose given the context this being a wargamer board, it's interesting, but why not have her playing Dom 3? I think that would be way cooler.

Are there any girls that play Dom 3 though? I have a feeling this game is just too geeky, but I would be glad to hear if I am wrong about that.

Anyway is that ad still going to be around on Wednesday?

Oh by the way, can someone translate this into English? Just for the sake of exploring postmodernist theory, which I'm somewhat interested in, does Dominions 3 challenge the accepted order / master narrative in any meaningful way however it is advertised? I mean it's a fun indie game, but like you're conquering the world in Dom 3 just like every other 4X. I would love to see fighting for global domination in Dom 3 as cool and subversive, but I can't see how that could be.

That is one strategically placed cushion! Obviously a very appropriate ad for a strategy game.
