Hmm.... I still don't quite see it. Oh well, I'll just take your word for it. I sorta guessed it was a bird though, either that or an anchor or something.
I think they turned it's head the wrong way ... I agree that it looks a bit distorted in the shield.
Speaking of flags, did anybody notice that the Britton flag (the one on my shield) is highly anachronistic ? It was created around 1930 I think.
I personally think the Breton flag is very very cool. Even if it is anachronistic, I don't think it should be changed that much. Although, if you don't like it in the game it is an easy thing to change.
Don't get me wrong young Morpheus, I like this flag (there is a reason why i put it on my shield). I was just wondering how this assembly well versed in History let this little anachronism slip here.
Was there really a flag at all before that one was adopted? Because if there isn't, that just might be the reason....
Brittain was independant until the 1500's. I don't know exactly what the various flags looked like, but I think one of them was a black cross on white ground (like the english one, but in b&w) maybe with some stylized ermines not sure.
Hmm... They might not have used that b/c of the similarity to the Teuton flag...
Hopefully in Vic they make the Prussian flag more clear, though.
