Re: What flags would you like to see most in SEV?
I wouldn’t label it as repressive; each culture is entitled to their own mores even if we [Americans] don’t agree with any repression; even those born from a stigma.

Re: What flags would you like to see most in SEV?
It has nothing to do with mores; it is the very definition of repression (2 a : a mental process by which distressing thoughts, memories, or impulses that may give rise to anxiety are excluded from consciousness and left to operate in the unconscious b : an item so excluded). Nazi memorabilia is distressing, and they seek to repress the memories of WWII atrocities by erasing the presence of its historical artifacts. German social mores may generally find that particular repression acceptable, but it doesn't change the fact that it is repression. But this is getting way off topic from the point of this thread...

Re: What flags would you like to see most in SEV?
The thing about Nazi symbolism is that much of it has significant historical value long before the Nazi's twisted it into symbolism of evil.
I however wouldn't want to see a flag for SE V that has anything to do with Nazism.
Back On Topic.
There are over 300 ship sets out for SE IV, many with very cool race emblems that would be great adaptations for SE V.

Those who forget history (or try to wipe it away by repressing it) are doomed to repeat it...

Cloudy all day! It hasn’t rained but everything is still damp.
Atrocities: Would you like to surrender now or wait till the day before the game starts?

Re: What flags would you like to see most in SEV?
How about a collection of corporate logo based flags? It might be amusing to play wars among computer manufacturers, for example.  |
