ok, realism is nice, war was 60 years ago, it is a fact that they used swastikas so, why not put it on the game?
plus swastikas mean inquerble, and are not a personification of evil ok?
its like in any game involving soviet union , would they ban the red star?

ps: the game is awesom, but it lacks the soviet and japonese armies ,
for me its always the best part

Display of the swastika is illegal in some countries, so I can understand why it wouldn't be in the game. Not sure why the States flag wouldn't be, though.

I know this is an old thread but I've only just started playing the game and I found this thread googling for Swastika, SS etc mods.

Some interesting points have been made for both sides of the arguement but the simple fact is that if one is playing a WWII game, it is reasonable to expect SS divisions, Death's Heads, Double Sig runes and Swastikas. THEY were the reason the war started in the first place! The Nazi ideology was the cause for the whole thing and to pretend otherwise is nothing more than dangerous.

The law in Germany about Swastikas is incredibly shortsighted.. do they really think a newly formed Nazi party is going to use the Swastika? Do they really think they will even call themselves National Socialists? Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it, as the old saying goes.

I am reminded of a similar case where a band named 'Death in June' were banned from Germany and Switzerland because most of their songs are connected to WWII and they use a Death's Head as their logo. The funny thing is, as pointed out by the band, they had just completed a very succesful tour of Israel with not a complaint and yet the country who actually were responsible for the Nazis and a country that got fat off the Holocaust had the nerve to ban them. hmmm....

Finally, I am playing this with Oposing Fronts... does anyone know where I can get a mod that rectifies this?
