Which country is preventing me from committing high-treason and attempted regicide?

My guess is it's out of respect, not so much written law. In Olegish it's quite common that ideas like this can get mixed up since people of Oleg's character consider respect more like a law than an opinion.

I would prefer it if it could sustain damage, but surround it with an impenetrable wall of AAA, Barrage balloons and fighter screen.

Also if it was damaged, the demeanour of the defending AI forces should become extremely agitated and aggressive, and be solely focused on destroying the offending aircraft.

Also the crew upon return to their aerodrome should then be arrested, court-martialled, stripped of rank and summarily shot for disobeying the strict orders not to attack the palace.

Well that's what I'ld do!

If they model the Reichstag or Brandenburg Gate in a future SoW module, will they indestructible as well? Here's hoping there won't be the usual double standard in gaming.

It's not too much to ask I guess. At least they aren't likely to wait until SoW is almost ready for release, then launch an NG style lawsuit to screw money out of Oleg for representing their buildings and public places in the sim.

The Palace had some damage on the outside. There are pictures of the royals with the rubble.

You Aussies have the luxury of being republican! - you don't have an 8,900km undefended border with the land of Mordor

I figured Oleg meant a literal law since MS CFS 1 also had invincible buildings.

Perhaps some European country views major cultural symbols as equivalents to a countries civilian culture and civilian population (and therefore vulnerable to hate and mock atrocities)??

However, destructible civilian buildings would seem to make this irrelevant.

between this issue and the grumman lawsuit we really need some good lawyers with an interest in flight simming to do some pro-bono work here.

anyone know a lawyer with a closet aircraft fetish? go find 'em.

I on the other hand am an Australian who is staunch monarchist.

The only reason we haven't become a rebublic is that the differnt rebulican factions in Australia hate each others guts and even they know that if they got into power only public appathy would keep us from being in a civil war within a few years.

I believe that there is nobody in this country (bar myself of cource) who I'ld want as a head of state and if we're going to have a head of state forced on to us I prefer them to live on the otherside of the world, that they have too many things to do so they don't bother us too much and that they speak proper, you know.

Long live the Queen!

God bless pubic apathy (I almost thought it was a Canadian invention).
One tyrant 3000 miles away!

No BadAim I suspect we still think you're all nuts...

I mean, you developed a republic before the French - that takes imagination; and you guys seem to think it is treasonous to modify your constitution, even the amendments, to your constitution. Lots of people dislike some of the private and public interference in foreign countries and are mystified at internal politics. But we've always liked the States (even when you elect strange politicians). The fact is that people really like most Americans as individuals and think America is a great country, if slightly unhinged at times. This is true almost everywhere.

But, back to the topic - we still don't know whose laws make buildings resist the laws of entropy and physics.

I wonder if this is a part of the reaction to the bombing of cultural targets (eg. By Germany during the war)?

Regicide?Mmm,no.

According to the modern mother of knowledge (aka Wikipedia),the king and Elisabeth used to stay at a safe place of the Buckingham palace (or somewhere nearby it).
