Trivia

German version

There are a number of changes in the German version:

• All swastikas were removed or replaced with iron crosses.
• On most posters the text was removed.
• With the exception of the finished mission goals, all level statistics were removed.
• The cutscenes using documentary film material were re-cut. Additionally the translation removes all mentions of "Nazi" or mentioning of specific persons, e.g. Hitler.

A detailed list of changes can be found on schnittberichte.com (German).
