If the mod is outside of the developers control then it's nothing to do with them. They're available in IL2 aren't they? And the devs aren't in jail.

Assuming the developers aren't allowed to touch it, I think you'd be better discussing a solution on a forum that is not linked to the developers.

As I said on some other post discussing this SWTK issue...

IMHO to play this game and being alarmed/infuriated by the SW is highly hypocritical.

let´s not show th SW, even when it is historically accurate, but let´s play to kill people and bomb the shit out of cities.

It just does not make sense to me.

Because the Swastika represents a broad ideology that is not limited to just the war, and is still to this day used by racist groups.

It also runs into legal problems in germany, russia and other european nations I believe. Since that other absurd thread was posted yesterday, I would say its probably best to let this issue sit/slide atleast for now. I dont see why you feel that the Wehmarcht Iron cross is not enough.

Ironic that we keep getting seemingly axis sympathetic Austrians posting, they unlike Germany did not undergo a de-Nazification process...
