My original idea of spreading some more Dom love would be what if someone created a series of viruses that attacked major infrastructure such as power, stock markets, etc and named them after their favorite nations? That could build brand awareness amongst folks who don't normally play strategy games. Of course there's that whole potential for society to crumble risk, which makes LOLDominions a better option in the long run.

Well, that's a small price to pay for spreading turn-based strategy gaming around the world while stopping the spread of another LOLcat-style infestation. So I wholeheartedly endorse your original ambitious idea and will do what I can to keep DHS off your back until the plan can be implemented.

Anyway, the risk of societal crumbling is pretty low if all the viruses do is rename stuff.

It seems to me that there are alot of computer controlled communications and broadcsting satellites in orbit that could be better used disseminating Dominions propaganda than Sopranos reruns.

Just food for thought.

Oh, sorry, to clarify the virus thing. I didn't mean that the viruses would simply rename things, but that each virus would be named after a Dominions nation. It would then attack an important computer network, and thus when someone talks about the NYSE being shut down they would say that it was brought down by the Atlantis, or Eriu, etc. virus.

Your idea of crashing satellites into the planet though is also a good one. At least that's what I got from it.

Ahm... Crashing?
Waste of good satellites. I was thinking you could just engineer a program to have the satellites broadcast Dominions adverts instead of useless junk. Might not actually be a bad thing to have happen.
