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.

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.

That's so weird, WidowMakers and I voted for the same thing, assuming he was the first vote.

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...

I like B, but it still means pink and red might look the same (but thats an ancient problem)
what about black?

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

No one knows what the poll means. gimil needs to post my graphic from page 3 with the 6 choices.
