If that looks like an iron cross than so does any cross where the lines meet in the center. Red Cross, you're on notice.

skasion posted:That just looks like Mensch ärgere dich nicht. German parcheesi basically. It’s pre-Nazi but uh. Yeah I Googled it and the board really does look like that, and that's the least swastika-like way to make that game. I didn't see the iron cross. Blind Guardian is my favorite band, just thought the imagery was a bit off... but knowing it's some 100+ year old German board game makes a lot of sense.

This is the one and only time I will defend Blind Guardian: Blind Guardian are not nazis. They're not trying to code anything. It's literally a Mensch ärgere dich nicht board with nerd characteristics.

To be fair, everything can be a swastika if you squint hard enough  I only see an iron cross and that’s if I ignore arithmetic also happens to use an awful lot of iron crosses

Idiots, that's not an iron cross or swastica, it's the most played board games over here in retirement homes and such and usually babbies first board game for already over 100 years. That's how the board is set up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mensch_%C3%A4rgere_Dich_nicht

Just purchased 4-day passes to Aftershock 2023 in Sacramento for my daughter and I. Christmas present to her. Should be fun, but $900 for two passes, without any bands announced yet, is a bit annoying. They have some dumb model where the price goes up every X weeks/months, but they only slowly release new bands to the lineup.

Everyone born in 1988 was a nazi. You can tell because they keep putting 88 on the end of their nicknames on the internet.

I haven't listened to them (or any metal at all) in over a decade but I'm just curious who it is and what they did. I mainly remember liking teh vocalist, Matt Barlow, at least as a musician. I used to love thrash metal in high school and a little after but then drifted to symphonic or power metal for something..."softer." I was mainly poking my heard in here to see if any of the female fronted symphonic metal bands are recommended? I think the big one I never listened to back then was Epica. And there might be tons more now.
