Fact 1:

$86 of the german criminal code outlaws any use of the swastika in Germany except for the following reasons:

a) education
b) documentation
c) art

Computer games are considered toys (as are models, BTW) and are therefore not exempted.

Fact 2:

Apparently 1C has decided not to allow the use of the swastika, let alone make a different version for the german market. (Hell, I even had to change my Balkenkreuz icon when I registered here, 'cause it was considered an NS symbol! )

Those are the facts pertaining to SoW and whatever original or ancient meaning the swastika has or had in certain cultural circles they are simply irrelevant in this case (as the swastika on german planes has nothing to do with hindus, navajos or buddhists).
