Hi, First off I want to say thanks for your hard work in bringing us another great game to play here at SBW.

I was wondering if it is possible to change the color of the black players pieces? I find that it is hard to see them on the map and they tend to blend in. I am not sure if others have had a problem picking out black's pieces. I am in my first game, so I am not sure if it will mean nothing in the long run and I will be identify the pieces at a glance after more play time.

Ok I think I know where they're coming from. I have had in the past old monitors that won't show constrast worth squat. Basically when you try playing some dark maps with online shooters it's like walking through a dark tunnel and no matter the adjustments on the monitor you can't get the contrast you need. So the simple solution is to get a better monitor but realistically that probably won't happen. So maybe they do have a point.

Here's a game with black

I think the black pigs and black horses are easy enough to see. So is the only issue the black cows? Which was mentioned by someone during beta testing.

I find the Cow, Horses, and just seeing the symbol on the land tiles difficult to see. It gets a little easier as the game progresses and patterns begin to form on the map, but initially it is difficult to see the intial placements of the black players pieces.
