Whilst there is no copyright to Nazi/ 3rd Reich symbols /posters etc, you have to be very careful when using them in your maps. In Germany it is illegal to have anything relating to the Nazi's in your maps ....
Then there is not so many German players as the game must have been hard (illegal) to market. In any case, this should not be a problem for the maker of the map as he or she is subject only to the rules of his country. Which of cource is bad if you live in Germany.

Doens't work like that - Game makers normally have to make the game with slightly altered textures just for Germany....and you can still break the law of another country eve if you don't live there
Well thats might be true if you try to sell your map in Germany, but if you submit your map to a web page in the US, you can't very well be blamed if someone downloads it and plays it in germany. The "Crime" and blame must be placed on the end user i belive.
