but people were complaining about not being free to choose their own color every single match, I honestly dont care about the “civ specific color” I like changing colors all the time. Setting a color to each civ would be a bad idea imo

The idea is just to have the possibility of all-unique colors for each civ, since it’s common to consider the symbol color of each. Could serve as “civ default”. But you choose freely
Agreed.
On another note, this list looks completely arbitrary and full of false stereotypes.
edit: colors stereotypically and nonsensically slapped as a civ’s ‘volksgeit’
You didn’t see my answer @UrbanizedGem684 . Too slow.

To me England/Britain is always red. I hated playing Blue England against a red France. Just felt wrong in the campaign.
These color assignment seem almost completely arbitrary.
You could always play any 1x1 as red x blue. But more colors have several advantages, in customization, uniqueness and possible association.

I definitely agree with reserving purple for Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire in such a system. We should get more colours, take Warcraft III’s palette as an example.

Color assignments aren’t necessary because we don’t need players to be colors of whatever civ they’re playing as.
