Well, it's, I think, a pretty easy and trivial thing to do, but I must be dumb because I could not figure how to do it...
Looked through the *.txt files, but could not find how to do it...

So my question is just : how can you change the colours of a faction ?
Not the shields, the flags or thinks like that. Just the two colours that we see on the soldiers, and that fill the army bars in the strategic map.

Thanks.

In the startpos file just under faction sheilds are the faction colours bit. there are 2 entries or 2 sets of numbers for each faction which represent the rgb colour.the first of which is the main faction colour,if you don't have an rgb colour chart showing colours and numbers respectively you will just have to adjust numbers by trial and error. I hope this is clear enough http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

You change these numbers as easy as that (I think).
