Request from a color blind man.

About 8% of the population suffers from color blindness. I am part of this group and I cannot distinguish the colors used in the small triangles on the upper left corner of the counters (soft factor).
Would it be possible to introduce a game option that replaces these colors with a simple grayscale (black - dark gray - light grey - white)?
It would be a great help!

This can be done by modding. I made one casually. You can extract the enclosed zip file and copy the five tga files to your "[WitE2 directory]\Dat\Art\Units" directory. Remember to back up the original files beforehand.

The current color code adopted in the mod are -
RGB 255,255,255 (white)
RGB 204,204,204
RGB 153,153,153
RGB 102,102,102
RGB 51,51,51 (darkest)

As I cannot judge on the desirable greyscale, please let me know if you want adjustments. Best if you have samples.
