Some of these games are difficult for me to play since I am color blind. Maybe the current player can have highlighted territories or the numbers can be highlighted. Maybe the player in action can have their pieces in BOLD Just a suggestion.

if go into a game you are playing, look to the right of the map, towards the top (near to 'refresh map' and 'enlarge map') 'add colour codes' - that should help you.

You can also make it a permanent setting in your control panel .. i forget how but am sure someone will fill you in.

Yeah, jiminski's right. Clicking on [add colour codes] will do the job.

You can set this in the left hand menu Personal Menu in Game Settings but the link does the job as well.
