Please, stop discussing war crimes.
Neither of you (nor me) are historical experts, to make judgement on who is more guilty.
And it is ridiculous.
Axis campaign won't be in this game.
Nazis commited a lot of war crime, but far better excuse is that they actually lost the war.
How is it supposed to end this 'Axis Campaign'?
I have nothing against fighting for Axis in MP (that's why MP has Axis), but Campaign seems weird.
Nazi pilots were fighting for evil side. For guys who were murdering millions of people, because they were of another race or nationality. Yeah, it doesn't matter cause they were soldiers and had to obey orders. But it matters - because they vote for their leader earlier. And their leader makes all these people fight - and die - in a world war, which they lost in the end. And it is their fault as well - that's the dark side of democracy. Everyone is guilty for the crimes of the government which was publicly elected.
Personally, I like the fact that Nazis lost this war. The idea that people have to die, with a horrible death, just because they are of the another race - seems horrible to me.
But to fight in Campaign for the loosing side?... What for? Will it prove that they were fighting for anything that worth fighting? Why anybody want to take a part in a Campaign for Nazis - and lost it, as Nazis did?

BTW, Allies and Axis both killed a lot of common people during military operations - it is war. But in USSR German prisoners of war have better food ration that Soviet soldiers on the frontlines. And USSR prisoners were starving and dying in German concentration camps.
The attitude towards prisoners shows a lot. And Germany attacked first, unexpectedly, without declaration of war - France, Britain, USSR. They (the govenrment) were mercyless agressor - and still they were treated as a war prisoners, not like they were of a lesser kind. I am proud that my grandparents fought and won that war.
And so stop comparing Russian (USSR) with Nazis or Japanese. That's silly and unfair.
