What is the story with those dominion ads??

[Sombre]

In what sense? We all already own the game so who cares how much we talk about the ads on here? It proves nothing. To someone who has never played dom3 (a prospective buyer) there's nothing to talk about and nothing controversial. Just another crappy advert. It isn't like I'm going to be pointing my friends to the adverts to convince them to buy dom3 either. If anything I'd now be wary of pointing a prospective buyer to this site without telling them to please ignore the stupid adverts.

I don't buy that "look you're talking about them, they must work" logic. They'd get even more reaction on here if the women were naked riding crocodiles covered in jam and eating flaming tophats with chopsticks. Does that mean they should have done that? Well yeah I guess it does.

Well yes, we all bought a copy, and some even more than one (belated Christmas gift for my brother, heh) but the shrapnel site does cater to more than just Dom3 players, though it is debatable how interested others would be in Dom3, after all historical wargaming is quite different from Fantasy TBS, and quite different from Scifi 4x.

I'm pretty sure the ads appear on other sites. I found out about Dom3 by clicking through an ad on the AC or Civ forums, can't remember which one.
