Ok ok ... I know, it is not crutial ... so just a feeling:
I find the colors of the tiles too flashy (or dark) so that I don't get a clear overview of the tokens. It looks a little bit confusing to me ...
Otherwise, eveything is working perfectly (for the first turn I have taken :lol: :lol: :lol: )

I'll see if I will be able to improve the graphics, meanwhile I have created several different colors for the tokens, so players can choose what works better for them.

Well, setup turns don't need testing :-).
Just wait to execute a war or politics action, or a culture action where two or three players should place more tokens than they have in reserve, and current turn must be interrupted so they can choose where to place them... |

I think making the cubes slightly larger and "back lighting" them in black would help out a lot.

Thank you very much for your suggestion Jim, I will give it a try.
Graphics will improve (I have toned down tile colors, though now blue and purple are a bit too similar), but it will take time, I'm no good at photoshopping. |

The blue and purple tiles are very similar, to me at least, even with the different art. Could you perhaps brighten the blue a little? |

OK, well I noticed 2 small problems. First of all, no matter how hard I tried, the grafics of brown cubes didn't load themselves properly. And as second I could sucsesfully change the colors of players so, that the cubes of those players were of the same color. Not that someone would use such settings, but for the sake of testing the game, and it's features. |

I had forgot the brown ones in the recent change, thanks for noticing, it's fixed now.

Yes, I know there is the possibility, but enforcing all different colors requires a bit of work that's not really necessary: it doesn't break anything in the game and if a player does it by mistake he can easily change.
Thank you!

The new blue colour looks good MaBi.
In my current game (9749), the red tokens with a blue flip-side (@ B6, B3, & E1) in this game are the old blue, while the rest of the blues are rendered correctly. Odd :D |

You changed the blue and green cube highlights to white? Ew. :( |

It was suggested by another player, I'm just trying it and can't really see a significant difference from a practical point of view (visibility), so I think in the end it's just a matter of personal preferences. |
