Can anyone think of a good symbol to use to represent the forces of Fascism in a game? I intend upon using the Germans, Italians and Japanese in a mod and instead of the rising sun symbol for bases I need something more appropriate to all three. Can anyone think of any?

Thanks.

The only problem with that is that at 14 pixels it wouldn't look very good I don't think.

Here's a couple ideas I had. The one on top is a combo of a red circle and black cross. The one of the bottom is a skull and crossbones, pretty good symbol of evil I would think...

Thanks Halsey, but I think the intricate patterns would be hard to recognize at such a small scale. Here's a couple other ideas I had.
