Why is Vlandia mainly yellow instead of red?

[FBohler]

Looking at videos and streams, Vlandia main color seems to be yellow most of the time, even when playing against blue factions.
I always thought Vlandia main color was red, but I may be wrong.

I find a yellow army a bit underwhelming, too happy for my taste ?

Can someone explain this?

There's two colour themes for all factions, from what I've seen sometimes the game picks the "alternative" colour theme even when not playing against the same faction. The "yellow" Vlandia is the alternative one you've seen.

Androme's right, also I doubt you'll see the Yellow in Singleplayer because it will clash with Aserai's colour scheme and we know Taleworlds likes to have factions distinct by colour.

Each faction switches to their secondary color when they are playing as defender. It's not related to whether they're battling against their own faction.
In Singleplayer, you won't see that happening as each faction only uses their actual color all the time.

Hmm is that so? Perhaps it would be more wise to make it so they switch to secondary colour if they're the defender + they are both the same faction.

I do like the yellow, but won't it be more like this in single player?

Gotta be honest, no idea. Can't remember.

Thats shame. Still thanks for the respond .

 

[Rabies]

Shouldn't they use their home shirts when they're defending their own turf?
Surely the away team should have to play in their second kit?

It is from the creative assembly thread in this forum. None of it is confirmed, but they have said they plan on taking ideas from the major creators like Piconi and Terco

@Husky @Eternal
Those troops are not from the game. Those are beautifull sketches from our very talented Terco_Viejo, my brother in arms.

I hate the vlandias aesthetic, too much late-middleage.

Huh? They’re nowhere near late MA. They’re dead on appropriate for Western European armies around the 11th century.

thats late, the game is supposed to be of the high middle ages, it could even be before as there is still a Western Empire.

The Empire is based on the Byzantine Empire (330 - 1453), not the Western Empire (285 - 476).

Yeah. You’re mistaking different time periods and perhaps misidentifying them. The Middle Ages were from 1000-1450 (approximately). From 600-1000, there were the dark ages. Before that is considered antiquity.

the game is meant to take place around 1000, give or take a few hundred years.

Thank you very much for your response, that's why I decided to open this thread!

Now I'm glad that Vlandia won't be ruined by yellow armies ?
