Question about Acraetia

I am VERY new to all this and I noticed something about Acraetia's symbol (logo). The logo they use looks like it is composed of an upside down cross. Is this indeed correct and/or intentional?

I can't say that it isn't correct, in that the elements you mention are actually there. However, it most definately is not intentional.

I am glad to hear that. Thank you for your response.

Welcome to the forums, daddystabz. Denny will surely correct me in case I'm wrong, but as far as I know, the Arcraetia logo is based on medieval conical helmet:

I was wondering if it could be something like that. I can definitely see that.

As Alberto noted the helmet reference was intended as well as the hilt of a sword. There are religious elements in Arcraetia but an upside down cross was certainly not the intended visual message.

I thought it was an "A" for Arcraetia.

I definitely saw the helmet motif - well, and the A for Arcraetia, of course - but an inverted cross is not something that comes to mind for me.

Mind you, many medieval helmet designs definitely had an intentional cross motif going in the first place...

The "A" was the other key visual. That's where it all started, the other stuff is just cake
