better than having two colors clashing in any 7-8 player game.

also the black stroke ensures that the number is visable in both light and dark backgrounds.

New Army Colors

Post by WidowMakers »

SO with the addition of 7 and 8 player games, the army colors have been edited. I have seen several other threads discussing this but I wanted to try and get an opinion with a poll. The last three colors tend to blend together a little and I don't know if that might add to the confusion during play.

I have made up 5 alternative color schemes for the 8 armies. Please vote for the one you like the most.

If you like a combination of several different ones please vote accordingly and explain your choice.

Nope...

Actually it works like this...

#999 = 999999
#F33 = FF3333
#0C0 = 00CC00
#33F = 3333FF
#FF0 = FFFF00
#0FF = 00FFFF
#F9C = FF99CC
#F60 = FF6600
#C09 = CC0099

They're shorthanded codes...

Check this...

Merged threads. Again. Widow's pole moved over though, but sorry about the jumbled posts.
