D&D 4E How Would You Like 4e To Be Advertised?

[Kaodi]

Or rather, the better question is " How Should 4e Be Advertised " but either way works, especially if the former is more fun.


Hmmm... My way out there suggestion, hehehe:

TV commercial with Vin Diesel as the DM and an assortment of actors, singers, athletes and personalities as players. Or cheaper up-and comers for budgetary purposes. Last shot would use the same angle as Craps camera shots do, with Vin throwing 2d10 or a d20 and a d8 across the table with awesome bounce right into the camera.

Back in reality...

Don't make adds that look geeky, make adds that look smart and mainstream, and put them in the places where people are going to see them. Has D&D ever made use of billboards, or endorsements of any kind? Time to take another hint from the mainstream industries.

They could do it like beer commercials... Every DM in the place surrounded by bikini clad Swedish bikini models...

They should release teasers and previews about 4E in magazines like Dragon and Dungeon...

 

[Aeolius]

Conan O'Brien should DM a game on his Late Night show.

 

[Doug McCrae]

They should replace every 'A' on the internet with a 4.

How do they advertise stuff like clue and monopoly?

" How Should 4e Be Advertised "

During a new D&D cartoon. For crying out loud, Wotc has put more mass-market support behind the P.o.S. Duelmasters.
