there is no reason for a grey HRE

[Krypton]

just like in CK2 there is no reason to paint the HRE in grey color. Please make it in golden/yellow thanks.

Let's summarize this: The byzantine empire is purple because it's flag is purple/red. France is blue because it's flag is blue (from house capet). England is red because it's flag has red in it. Poland is red because it's flag is red. Hungary is redish because it's flag is red/white. Sweden is blue because it's flag is blue. Bohemia is brown because it's flag is red/brown.

BUT: There is no white/grey in the flag of the Holy Roman Empire. The white/ grey of the HRE is coming from the Prussian/German Reich flag of the 19th/20th Century. The HRE flag on the other hand is a black eagle on a yellow/golden field. White/Grey is not even part of that flag. So that's why the color of the HRE should also be yellow/golden.

You might have a better chance of having this suggestion noticed if you post on their official boards but that's up to you. There is a community manager who reads posts here and reposrts back but he's not going to say that he's read them.

I just find it weird that they keep doing it. I did complain about it on their forums before the release of Crusader Kings II...

and why is noone else complaining or even bothered by this. So many mysteries in this world...

you suggest gold/yellow have you seen the yellows they use in CKII they ain't to pretty. if they did gold how would you make it look gold and not just yellow
do you have a specific tone of yellow you would like to see.

I like the bright white HRE it's so bright, vibrant and very bold you know who it is when you see it on the map.
can't imagine what a yellow would look like.

Yeah they can easily use different shades of colors, and they do that with other countries: For example hungary is more pink than red, even though the countries flag uses a different kind of red. You can also see other countries that are yellow in the current CK3 map: Scotland, parts of Iberia and Khazaria. And they are pleasant to look at, definitely more pleasant than grey in my opinion.

I would use a similar color like they are using right now for khazaria, you can see it on a screenshot here:

So basically very soft and pale, more towards white than dark and brown..
