Those are both very badass.

Another flag from the same world as before:

The emblem of the "Council for The Distribution of Goods" (aka the Eurasian Mafia). More information on them will be provided when I make the thread.

Hey, they ripped off the Soviets enough OTL that ATL quasi-fascist Soviets mobsters are allowed to rip them off.

Another thing (possible flag challenge) - are there any "generic" Eastern European flags out there?

That is, flags that look Eastern European, but aren't actually reminiscent of one particular country.

Step 1. Choose three random colors.
Step 2. Make a horizontal tricolor out of them.
Step 3. If you've just created a real flag, or one that looks Pan-African or Pan-Arabic or whatever, go to step 1.

Or if you pick well, this one which doesn't represent any actual real-life entity. You could embelish it further of course but it would make it less generic probably.

This gives me more or less what I'm after, thanks.

On an unrelated note, any heralds on here care to describe this in heraldic terminology?

That is a perfect Fascist Russia flag.

This is a gorgeous flag. However, I find the use of the Nordic Cross to be..baffling. Why not use the Russian Naval Jack as a base?

Well a mixture of things. Firstly there was a nuclear war, so things got a little scrambled. The remnants of the Soviets government fled to Sweden (less cancer), so there was some Nordic unfluence. Most importantly though, the people running the mob thought it looked cool.
