Sombre,

Are there "troubles in Africa" right now that are heat-related? Like, people napalming each other? In that context I can see it as unintentionally insensitive. If it's just about Africans living in hot climates I don't see it as insensitive, and it's a valid point. Preference for hot weather != heat resistance.

I'm no expert on africa, I just catch random tidbits from the newspapers, but not so long ago I remember reports of people being burned alive.

That's come up a few times along with machete dismemberment and the other usual nastiness.

Replace with any country and you can make it look like it's a bad place to live in. The largest part of Africa, America, Asia or Europe is kept completely safe.

Sadly, it takes only a few articles and a broad generalisation to make any country look like it's hell. Especially if you listen to the usual TV and radio that always want to make people believe that their country is the best place in the world.

Anyway, I think that this kind of discussion has nothing to do with Dominions and should be stopped...

Edit : Sorry to quote (and modify) you Sombre, this comment isn't directed at you. I just feel like politics shouldn't be on a game forum. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/fear.gif

No, it's not Sombre's fault, I asked. Sorry for bringing it up.
