Warhammer Color Palette

I found this link with color swatches for the colors in War, if you're like me, appearance is 75% of your battle performance! You need to look good fighting!

It also has the RGB values and hex codes.

Thanks for that! I had to experiment a bit to find out that Scab Red looked more like dark purple, than purple did... heh heh... Well, at least on my monitor ;)

Oh, and dumb question... Are those the paint colors for the miniatures? And are all of those colors available in game somewhere?

Yes, they are the miniature colors from GDW. I believe there are some Warhammer 40k colors in there as well. TBH, I love looking at the thumbnails of the painted miniatures, its amazing how well they are finished. It seems most of the colors are in game, would be cool if they released more colors. I don't see the difficulty in it to be honest. 1 thing that would be cool, I know there are UI tools to write your own custom addons, what about a new tool to customize armor? Also, what about a new guild reward "Guild Colors", where the primary and secondary colors are set for the guild, and it you choose, you can use the guild colors or your own primary colors you picked?

I would love to see "guild colors" rewards. That would be fantastic. It's odd that "scorched brown" according to that pallete is actually brown whereas in game it's actually one of the most preferred reds.

Maybe Fog can drop a suggestion with guild colors? :-) It shouldn't be too difficult imho, seems to be similar to displaying guild heraldry on a cloak. Maybe a programmer entered the wrong RGB values in the game for that brown color? lol.

/signs petition for Guild Colors. That could be a guild reward at Guild Rank 10 or something. Default color of items would automatically match the players guild colors (primary and secondary). With a player option to Dye and Override to a custom color if they want to :)
