I would agree that from a practical standpoint, it is useful to be able to fairly easily differentiate the various units in an army (as well as the opposing sides). Piquet family rules, for example, have variable unit ratings, so two identically equipped units might have quite different combat ratings.

I try to make army color themes because I find if you go too realistic (for fantasy/medieval/dark age) you can't tell the forces apart.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-84470489842135552502013-11-18T19:06:42.563-05:002013-11-18T19:06:42.563-05:00Glad you enjoyed them.
