Faction Colours

It is a well known fact that when a faction takes a territory through the process of territory war, they are automatically given a colour, and this colour cannot be chosen by the faction, and it cannot be changed, it is simply given to them.

However, through observation of all the territory maps across all servers, it would seem that there is a set norm for which the factions are given their colours. It would appear that it is standard for the first faction to own the first territory to be given the color red. And the remaining colours are distributed in the order of which territories are won.

Now, with this in mind, would it be possible to pseudo-choose a colour based on your own will by timing your bid so that your faction would finish at the designated time and acquire the designated colour? If anyone have a collection of the array of possible colours and the order of which they are given out, I would greatly appreciate it if you would please share it.

Thanks!

    Well, if you were on a brand new empty server, and you could effectively choose your own TW time, then I suppose.

    But the only set color is red as first. After that, it's all random.

    Its not quite random Red is first then green I think after that is either purple or orange not sure which one comes first but I am leaning towards orange Then its that blueish color I think there are a couple more colors but thats most of what you are going to see.


    Ah right there is also yellow but I don't know the order for that one. And Teal

    I'm fairly certain that if it's not random after red, then it's random after about 5 colors, because there are some colors on certain maps that aren't on any other, or colors that appeared too soon. For example, on the Raging Tide server, QQme has a lightish white color, similar to that of the unowned map, which I haven't seen really anywhere else except maybe on LC when they gave all of the lands away.

    Our faction always ends up with purple/pink. It's kind of neat since our icon is purple. b:laugh
