New faction colours

[B-Wing]

Could be my monitor settings, but Makedonia is clearly brown to me, though they are the darkest of the five. Black actually sounds a lot better, though, so I think I'll make them that. I believe that was their original RTW color anyway.

I'd also like to mention that I do really, really like the fact that in EB each faction's territory are represented by only one color (well, except for the rebels, but that is fine) instead of two. Makes the mini-map much clearer, especially in places with dense or winding boundaries.

Some of the faction colors were simply kept from vanilla or altered slightly.

The new factions in EB2 will use colors that are not in use by nearby factions, like Pergamon who will use purple. Closest faction with similarish color is Baktria.

Meaning POntos won't be purple anymore and Hay not light blue...

Oh dang, I did like Purple Pontos. I liked Armenia's color, too, but I was really hoping they would adopt the Artaxiad Dynasty's standard's color (as represented in Wikipedia).

Not sure what you call that (red-purple?), but I think it would look nice on the campaign map. 2 cents deposited.

YOu will probably never see them, although they look great: The Artrix Dynasty wasn't royal until the early 2nd century bc, so way after the campaign beginning.

Just shows how easy it is to forget the little guys

Well, from the alpha tests we done it seems the colors are different enough with Pergamon's purple being different enough to distinguish it from Pontos and Hayasdan. Although if people complain that the colors are too alike, there might be changes.
