really like the idea of the thread, although there are more important issues atm :-)

since the axis commander was one of the main characters who also appears on the loading screen the guys were probably a little overprotective. maybe they though that one of the most desired characters in the game should'n be associated with the nazis. but it's only a thesis.
but why do we have a hellhound then? that could hurt the feelings of some religious persons too ;-)

it's a game in a specific universe and most of us know that this is only a form of art and entertainment. iron maiden is a worldwide popular brand so people all over the world are united through their music. that's why i cannot see a reason to be overprotective, since the band is the best example for a worldwide community without inherent natiaonalistic tendencies.

that's why i would also love to rename CG to axis commander again, since that was a real cool name, the corrupt general is somewhat lame imo.

OTAH someone pointed out long ago that the prefix corrupt fits better to the story line, since there are many corrupted characters. their soul
was corrupted by the evil beast, that's why they behave the way they do.

maybe it's a combination of both factors, but who knows :-)

anyway: MAKE THE AXIS COMMANDER GREAT AGAIN
