In the battlefield and stats page the kuwal has no color right now.
To make it as clear as possible what kind of kuwal you are attacking, it will be colored in the respective color.

I coded it, but kuwal in red looks weird.
In Aderan Wars red symbolises defense, or some kind of danger.

That's the reason why the colors for all kuwal types will be changed.

Before we had 3 types of kuwal with these colors:
Empire Kuwal (RED)
Home Planet Kuwal (YELLOW)
Bank Kuwal (GREEN)

Now the colors will be as follows:
Empire Kuwal (YELLOW) to represent the yellow veins of kuwal/gold is often represented by yellow color, as well as jewelry, making the kuwal value look more valuable
Home Planet Kuwal (GREEN) to represent that the kuwal is ready for you to be banked.
Bank Kuwal (LIGHT BLUE) is similar to the color of bank on main. Blue is the next color after yellow and green.

The only reason why it shouldn't be done is that people might have got used to the old colors already, so I am asking you, would you mind if it changes?
What is your opinion?

Color changes do not matter, but my question is why? You can only attack 1 type of kuwal, so why even bother signifying what type it is with a color? As it is right now it is very clear which type of Kewal you are attacking. You are attacking the only type that you can.

Also, since when has the color red indicated "Defense"? I have never seen it as such, nor ever conversated with anyone who made that same analogy.

I currently like the existing colours and think that they work well.

I see no reason to colour Kuwal on the battlefield pages because all that should be displayed there is the Empire Kuwal. Rather than colouring it change the column heading from Treasury to Empire Kuwal

I am not sure what you mean by the Stats page either but I would suggest an update to the Income page by adding an entry for how much Home Planet or Bankable Income is generated per turn

I think the colors are perfect the way they are, red signifying whats in danger, yellow showing you to take caution and bank this before you stop gaining it per turn, and green for being spendable.

Treasury has been changed to Empire Kuwal already.

The only page where you see kuwal colors are in your infobar and bank.

By stats page I mean the page which you see if you click on a name of a player.


Red as defense was used for example for weapon research. If you researched an attack weapon, then in armory you saw a green sword signifying that you can build this weapon for attack, and a red shield signified you can build it for defense.

Color wise this makes the most sense to me, but I really don't care.

I asked a couple people and all of them either said that the red-yellow-green scheme is better than the yellow-green-blue scheme, or they said both are equally good. Not a single one said it looks better with the blue color.

That's why it will be kept the old way.
