[casual_games] Comparative advertising

[Lennard]

I am going to be doing a press release soon and want to make a 
comparison to a well known board game.  I want to say something like, 
"Like Risk but for Civil War buffs and students" (BTW, the game is not 
Risk).

I am making a comparison to a game that's at least fifty years old, very 
well known and which I compare well to. It also lets me pitch the game 
in a single sentence so that the consumer, at a glance, can know what 
the game is all about.  Looking at commercials common in North America 
this seems to be an OK thing to do and I haven't found anything online 
to contradict this.  What I'm looking for is a source that definitively 
states the rules.

Thanks in advance,
