  • Why no Swastika flag?

    Do the Germans really think they make the past nonexistent by getting rid of symbols of their darker days?

    From the Paradox site: "There will not be any swastikas in the game, because it IS illegal to show them in Germany and various other countries. Same goes for other Nazi symbols (e.g. related to the SS) or Nazi propaganda material, including songs etc."

      The trouble is that the Swastika is used as a rallying symbol for young neo-nazis. That's why its banned here. And the proper name is Hakenkreuz.

      (Except in historical photographs or educational materials, obviously)

        I bet if all the jews started using it as their symbol, then the neo-nazis would abandon it.... like that will ever happen...

          It's illegal in some countries.

            I'd be interested to know what is done re: the Nazi swastika in the Commandos series. It appears a fair wack in the UK version.
