Colors of The Factions...

As many of you noticed already, the colors we see in the CU logo, are Red, Yellow, and Blue, as opposed to Red, Green, and Blue, like we saw in DAoC... I noticed, a lot of the TDD color-schemes for the concept art, and the recent model that was revealed today, have a very "reddish" theme, or is it just me?
Is it possible that the Arthurians are actually Yellow, Vikings Blue (as before), and TDD... red? What do you think?
And what do you prefer the colors to be? Personally, I think a two color system would be cool... Like TDD Green + Black, Vikings Blue+White, Arts Red+Gold, or something like that.... What do you guys think?? What would you prefer?

Red just seems so fitting for Albion (maybe cause I watched Merlin recently, the BBC show, and Red was a staple color for them, the knights, Arthur, wearing red cloaks, etc, though the show had a terrible ending imo but that's another topic) and blue for Vikings seems to be a good fit if it is, when many people think vikings they get images of northern countires, fjords, the ocean, glaciers, etc and the color Blue just fits with that. TDD could go green/yellow or such.
Yea, personally, I don't like the idea of TDD being Red either... I liked the colors I mentioned b4:
TDD: Black+Green
Arthur: Red+Gold
Vikings: Blue+White
I got the same thing from watching Merlin, and oh man, was I sad when that thing ended... Oh man, I loved that show. lol And yea, I got the sort of "inspiration" for a darker Green+Black TDD from Morgana, Mordred, and The Druids from that show, so, it's interesting you mentioned that (even though the Druids were technically a peaceful people). Still, I think seeing a darker Hibernia like Morgana's crew from Merlin would be super dope for CU.
What do I think? I think THIS:

Arthurian
Think King Arthur, you think two things. Royalty (red is regal, then again so is purple), and Knights (Platemail, grey)
Tuatha De Danaan
You think of the fae, you're thinking trees, nature, primal/feral qualities. I think greens and browns mix.
Vikings
Of the vikings, you think cold, and colder steel. So darker greys, and a mixture of cyans.
** editted for reasoning.
These are some pretty good color choices, but I dunno, I'm in love with the idea of a darker, eviler Hibernia, especially after seeing the concept art, so I'm thinking Black and Green, tho, I like your other choices there, particularly Mid, I think Blue/Grey would definitely work well fo them...
LOL. I agree. That way, when we kill you, we can be all like "OHH Yea!! How you like THAT? Taste Da Rainbow Muh Fuckas!!"
Like the Black and Dark Green TDD scheme
And, of course, Dark Blue and White for the Vikings
But a Dark Purple with maybe a Grey or Silver for Arthurians to distinguish it fromAlbion.
Each realm could have a rich deep, color and a neutral, but the TDD's would have to be tweaked maybe, with the black lightening up some.
Anyway, there's already this:
So we might be stuck with those colors.
Hib is green... period!
Black and Green? Great!
Gold and Green? Perfect!
Brown and Green? Magnificent!
I don't really care what you pair it with... but, Hibernia is GREEN!
I'll say again, it's the EMERALD ISLE!
Really, I don't care... just get the game made so we can PLAY!

Yea man, I have to agree with you, more than anything, I think TDD is Green, haha!
I hear that's what they chant in San Francisco too

Maybe the piercing of the veil turned all that green to yellow? Think outside the DAoC box... :P
