NAH I AGREE WITH INQUISITION YOU HAD IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME MAN

no i mean do what you feel, and while i whole heartedly agree the map isnt too clear in vanilla sometimes. I think your current mod fixes one problem and creates another. Worst case scenario, just try to keep everyone with a different color next to each other. Just Blue, Slightly Darker Blue, and Slightly lighter blue are all next to each other, it turns into a busy mess. Until someone pointed it out earlier i had completely forgotten nordland was on that map, all i can see is middenheim and empire rebels molded together.

@InQuistion

you can't make 100% black color or other color that show still little brown on i think because of map background is yellow. Parrovan is at rgb 50,50,50 but yet show dark brown than normal dark grey.

i would be unhappy if make write for reikland lol.
this map is merely to make map with my taste to myself.

if a lots guys agree with InQuistion idea about color.. i can make one new mod to for you all?

@InQuistion...every people have their own taste plus different pc or setting for graphics or eye strength.

for me Angrund and Midland are not so close to same color

about Brown, I was tired of can't see who own region between Kislev and Ostmark plus didn't like see brown for like Barak Varr and some brown south, so that actually less brown now than vanilla.
i try change Dark Green color group for greenskins tribe Yellow for Southern etc
and so alliance color for Middenland/nordland and Ostland/Ostmark.
plus some color was too strong so i try make less strong. like BP,Ostland,Tilea and top knotz.

to make perfect color for all faction is a bit hard work to just make all happy player is not easy.

im not sure what you fixed? theres still a ton of brown and now with the colors more muted theres little difference between any of the colors, Angrund, Middenheim and the Empire rebels look IDENTICAL.

I dont mean to offend, but you might want to assign new colors, but make them bright and vibrant. Especially when you are doing something like battleplanning you need bright objective markers and clear indicators to give you direction.

If its possible, try to pick specific colors for each fation, like:

Empire - White
Dwarves - Sky Blue
Caln Angrund - Bright Purple
Bretonnia - Royal Purple
Bordeleaux - Navy Blue
Couronne - Yellow Gold
Wood Elves - Blue Green
Argwylon - Earthy Brown color
Greenskins - Lime Green
Crooked Moons - Black/Bronze sort of color. like tarnished brass
Bloody Hands - Bright Red
Vampire Counts - Black. Dark Grey
Von Carsteins - Dark Red (like blood)

Then just tweak the color schemes for the minor factions, pick like a color scheme for an entire faction but add variations. If possible, maybe you could add patterns, like Empire could be White with a black line pattern running over it for instance.

The main problem is that they still look very much alike. I'd love a map with those colors but where you also could see where each country starts/stops. For instance BP and Broken nose look alike. Same can be said about Talabecland and Ostmark, or Middenheim and Nordland.
