Copyright infringement using frames from Age of Empire 2

Sorry, I didn’t find a suitable topic about copyright infringement.
Sorry for me english, he is not my native language(Russian). Because of this, I often use google translator to translate some words that I don’t know. I started playing AO since 2003-4(At 6-7 years old) and I find it offensive to use false footage for advertising(Yes, most likely I played the pirated version).
Im hate THIS: Sorry, new users can only put 2 links in a post.
Remove spaces “. com” or replace “. com” -> “.com” “. png” -> “.png”

It is more difficult to catch a thief here. For many buildings have been changed or rotated.

I am attempting to contact Microsoft Legal about dropping the hammer on this nonsense. Hopefully they help erase Rise of Empires
