When I play, I tend to roleplay heavily.

I really try to live like the leader of that faction and think like him/her.

One of the key things I do is to look to the faction's art and determine the colour. For example the broken lords wear red cloaks, so they get red. Wild walkers use nature --> green, roving clans look like desert nomads --> orange.

Do you guys do the same? if so what is your colour scheme?



This is my colour scheme

Roving clans - orange

Broken Lords - red

Wild Walkers - green (light or dark)

Vaulters - dark blue

Ardent Mages - purple

Necrophages - wathever remains (pink)



Drakken - light blue?

Cultists - ?







Also I would like to use this thread to ask another question:



I usually don't include the necrophages in my playtroughs simply because their colour schemes don't match. I've noticed in their pictures that they have yellow markings, but yellow isn't a colour that can be picked. And this made me wonder, are there going to be new colours added in further patches? Like brown, yellow, black, white,... I think this would be a simple feature to implement and it would make the game even more enjoyable for me smiley: biggrin

Because then I wouldn't have a problem anymore: necrophages would get yellow, cultist black or white smiley: biggrin what is your opinion on this?

They really should add more colors. It shouldn't be that hard. Unless they have some trouble with how long the dropdown list can be, defining a color takes three to four lines of in the xml file.

Fix the drop up/down list while they're at it. It was junk in ES .

More colours were indeed nice.



I would use yellow for the Necrophages and switch for my actual colour(light green) if it looks right.

I make the Wild Walkers be light green and the Necrophages dark green. There's enough difference in the two colors to not confuse them and I find that dark green is thematically fitting for the Necros.

I use purple for any team I play as, since it's my favorite in game color so far. But if I had to choose specific colors for each factions "and I usually do." Here's Order I go with.



Roving clans - orange

Broken Lords - red

Wild Walkers - light green

Vaulters - Cyan

Ardent Mages - Blue

Necrophages - Dark Green or purple if I decide to go with one of my specified faction colors.



unnamed factions?

I do the exact same thing. I have specific colors for each faction and I feel some faction colors overlap. For the most part I use:

Red: Broken Lords or Necrophages (usually Broken Lords get this color)

Blue: Vaulters or Ardent Mages (Ardent Mages usually get this color if I'm playing as them)

Green: Wild Walkers (preferably dark green)

Orange: Roving clans

For my the light green has a "toxic" vibe( I hope this is the right expresion) which is fiiting for the Necrophages but yes any green is my prefered colour at this point.



My scheme is the following.



Ardent Mages: Purple>Pink>a blue one

Broken Lords: Red>Dark Blue>Light Blue

Necrophages: Light Green>Dark Green

Roving Clans: Red>Orange>Purple

Vaulters: Orange>Dark Blue

Wild Walkers: Dark Green>Light Green

It seems we're all in agreement on this topic. I'm tempted to ask a dev to comment on this with their own (canonical) faction color choices.

In addition to more color options, it would be nice if each faction had a default color, it would help give factions more personality.

Having looked at the various Factions on the settings screen before starting a game, my conclusion is that the present factions are:



Ardent Mages - Purple.

Broken Lords - Red.

Necrophages- Yellow.

Roving Clans - Orange.

Vaulters - Gold.

Wild Walkers - Lime.
