I hadn't even thought of terrain. I assume different terrain would be easier to view with different colors as well? I got my work cut out for me, lol. Right not I got 13 factions, each has roughly 11 units and can have up to 10 or so structures. Would it help if structures for the same team had maybe a shade of the same color to help differentiate them from the units? For example, royal blue compared to a dark blue? al -----Original Message----- From: ian-reeds-games-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ian-reeds-games-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Craig Brett Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2013 1:54 PM To: ian-reeds-games@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ian-reeds-games] Re: colors Hi Allan, Well, I think unique colours are cool. i.e you could have a red team, a greeny coloured team, a blue one, a pink one (maybe!), a brown team, a black team (perhaps not fully black but close, like #050505), any sort of different colours would work. The only thing you need to keep an eye on is that you don't start using the same colours for terrain and teams.
