One supplementary question please that genuinely interests me and perhaps someone who knows can provide the answer.
if NSDAP insignia and markings are illegal in COD in Germany and Russia then why is there a loophole that allows motion pictures to bypass that law. For example Valhalla, Downfall or Battle of Britain etc etc. If they are excluded on artistic merit then why is not a historically accurate pc simulation also exluded? it seems like double standards.
Or is it because with a film the autthorities see the full context of the usage in advance whereas in a sim it's more dynamic?
Finally, swastikas or not, I can't remember anyone but the WWII luiftwaffe using ME110s or flying 109s out of France so in terms of referencing the NSDAP (who were definitely dictating usage) isn't that identical? It all seems maddeningly illogical to me but I'll shut up now.
