Swastikas are an ancient American Indian symbol for good luck used by the Boy Scouts of America as recently as 1946. Sorry that your country is ass backwards and allows a despot to **** on a perfectly good symbol.

Yes, I'm totally aware of the history of the swastika thank you very much. I don't live in the country you refer to, and my ass backward country doesn't forbid the use of swastikas. Actually, still today, you can find a swastika here in at least one military flag.

I was just referring to the fact that laws are what they are in some places and we cannot change that fact.

no matter what you think, you cannot change the fact that some things are illegal and this one is not devs hobby. lets not worry about a very small part of what we might or might not miss, but instead enjoy what weve gained with these new forums to the fullest, shall we?

Exactly this!

I think a more reasonable interpretation is that the swastika as a concrete glyph or symbol has multiple meanings and can be used for any one of them. If someone paves a swastika outside a raided camp, it's probably safe to assume that he did not mean it as an Indian greeting for good luck and prosperity. ^^

That is not said to excuse the American-imposed German censure on swastikas, of course. I'm just sayin' that if someone of the opposite sex shouts "***** you!" at you in anger, it's probably not an invitation for sweet love making. :)

It's not so bad :)

It's not very good, either, though. :)

There's far better things to pave in the ground to taunt people. I would like to see the oddgod symbol burned into the dirt on the heathen lands, of the dollar sign for the trader church or whatever symbols people come up with for their own town.

C'mon folks! This game is ripe for your own heraldry and taunts. Why rely on the crappy swastika or inverted crosses? Even the evil eye would be more impressive (and more era appropriate)

True that, point taken. lol

Right on! Relying on someone else' symbol is lazy. Be original and make a unique symbol for your enemies to fear. I only wish we had more custom clothing, so groups could be more identifiable by how they dress.
Maybe some of the old H&H ideas for worshiping gods can eventually be put into Salem, and we can have our own churches and cults.
