Simple Idea
« on: March 09, 2002, 10:30:52 AM »
Right now when the host delivers the message that a field has been captured you have to bring up the map to see if it was your country's field or another's.  For example, if you see:

FIELD 14 HAS BEEN CAPTURED BY THE BISHOPS

you don't necessarily know if it was one of yours, unless you are Bishop.  With the arena size getting bigger, it may be even harder to tell who did what to who.  So how about coloring the number of the field in the host message ?  If 14 was captured from the Rooks by the Bishops, Knights would see the uncolored message above, but Rooks would see:

FIELD  14  HAS BEEN CAPTURED BY THE BISHOPS

That way everyone knows who did what and there is no strat confusion.
