Regional Camaflouge colors Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

IMO, some regions should have different color uniforms and tanks. The African, Middle Eastern, and South American or Central American Civs should have desert themed uniforms and tanks, (and maybe artillery). The European, Asian, and North American (in X-pack) civs should have green and grey themed uniform and tank colors. Maybe it's just my computer, but the T-34 and the T-80 tanks look yellow, but there is no desert in Russia. Also, the German Tiger and Leapord tanks are also yellow colored, but there is no desert in Germany. And the Russian infantry look yellow too.

The Russian and German Industrial-Info Age UU's should be green or grey. The Russian Red Army should have green color uniforms and the German infantry should have grey colored uniforms. Also, The Leapord+Tiger and T-34+T-80 should be green and grey.

Full PM-box? Change here!

i was thinking that all generic tanks should be camoflage green, and each nation's unique tanks should have a different color. Like the Germans
should have all the Unique tanks a greyish color.
while russians maybe have like a snow camoflage.

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

well, this is a pickle.

All nations with good tank armies have all forms of camofloge. because those countries just so happen to be big enough to fighht in all terrains. The Germans were big in notrth africa during WW2, the chinese have evreything from desert to rainforest to snowcapped mountians, the americans are all over the world, so shouldn't camaflouge be based mroe on campaign?

there should very much be different uniforms for different armies

or maybe different units should have different colors, that way, the M1A3s will be yellow all the time and the T-32s will be green all the time

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

i'n just thinking in terms of unit recognition....
like u see a gray tank...u know its the Germans and its them killer Tiger Tanks, plus it matches their infantry's uniform color. so if all their tanks, planes etc matches a similar color scheme it would be more easy to recognize as i'm facing Germans, and gives the Germans a more distinct look for flavour. Same with the Russians and whoever else.
