I have much trouble seeing the red maneuvers on dials. The contrast for the whites and greens is GREAT but dull red on a faded black is hard to see.

FFG, please use red ink with some more vibrance so the arrows pop.

I'll trade you. I am color blind. The red and green maneuvers look identical to me.

How do you handle that?

I'd expect a half decent memory and an expectation that the more "radical" a maneuver is the more likely it is to be red instead of green.

The colour blind player i play with will often ask another player what colour that maneuver is showing them the dial. other then that he memorizes.

I bring an 11 year old with me. The only time it is a real problem is when I play against that 11 year old. Luckily he lies very poorly and I can tell when he is trying to mess me up.

Actually, the first time I came across a Shadowcaster I did not believe my opponent.............

I feel like @Brunas should weigh in.

Those who doubt this is a real issue should track down the SteleTV episode where Paul Heaver teaches him IA. The constant frustration at picking the wrong dice, though funny in its skit-like repeating pattern, highlights just how annoying (to impossible to use) it can be have things that are designed with no regards to accessibility.

Here's something you might try. Get a small piece of red and green transparent cellophane like what's used for Christmas gift bags. The green cellophane should brighten the green arrows and darken the red arrows. Of course the cellophane will color the white arrows but the difference should be noticeable enough not o confuse them.

This trick goes back to the original PASSWORD home game. The words were printed in red and overprinted in blue making them unreadable. The card was placed into a sleeve that had a red cellophane window. When the word was aligned in the window, the red cellophane filtered out the blue printing making the red printed word readable.

It's something to try and cheaper than a red contact or special glasses. Another source of the cellophane would come from the old, cardboard 3D glasses.

I can't depend on my memory alone any longer. Fortunately, my eye problems don't include color blindness.

I don't blame you about remembering all the different dials especially considering how many there are. Still if you could tell it's one or the other you could usually guess based on how extreme the maneuver seems. If you think you're seeing a green k-turn I'm thinking something is wrong but then again you've got hard turns...

It not that I can’t tell that it is a red manuever, I have trouble seeing which one it is!

This is why FFG should either allow or print themselves dials for CB people. I understand why they don’t allow need non FFG promo cards without the real card as well, but when you can’t see red or green, the whole premise of their games manoeuvres need to be addressed for these people.
