WW2 German uniforms were magnificent to be honest, and if I was alive during WW2 I would've joined the German Army if I could simply because the uniforms were that good. The German uniforms commanded respect and fear, so people really shouldn't be surprised if more people play the Germans in WW2 games if given the chance. Surprisingly, Relic actually managed to make proper German uniforms for the OKW. I was a bit dissapointed with the uniforms the Ostheer has when I first played CoH2, but they massively improved upon that aspect for the OKW.

To each their own. While people may not care about how a military uniform looks, I do and it's why I haven't joined the Canadian Army yet; i'm waiting for the Government to make combat uniforms that look good and command respect. Fashion has some relevance in war since there are people like me who won't fight unless our military has uniforms that look good/magnificent.

Like I said buckers, fashion does have some relevance in war and no amount of insults will change that fact. I myself know a few other people who said they would join the Canadian Army if the Government makes combat uniforms that look good/stylish, so I have no doubt there were many people like myself during WW2, but this is indeed veering a bit off topic.

As for Death's Head avatar, you do realise that "Death's Head" is an actual symbol that predates Nazi Germany, right? If my memory serves me right, the Death's Head symbol was used roughly 170 years ago by Prussian hussars under King Frederick, so it's definitely not a symbol exclusive to Nazi Germany, that's for sure.

EDIT: Looks like the user Death's Head already answered regarding the symbol predating Nazi Germany.
