Looks like nones played Need for speed or midnight club.
Pearlescent colors are colors that turn different colors in different light when you move the unit. but i dont know how well it would work in tactics.

You mean for the units then? You play too many video games. It is called chameleon paint or color changing paint, in real life. Duplicolor's Mirage paint comes to mind.

There's no light in tao...So I don't get how possibly it could change?

There is a light source in the game though, shadows and such are based on it, and it could be worked in such a way. Anyway, this is in the wrong forum and is pointless.

I was thinking when the units turn different directions the color could change.

So what forum should this go in.

I'm actually not so sure about this. I think the shadows might be hardcoded to the sprite.

Interesting, I wonder if.. well, there can't be, but I was gonna say I wonder if there is still a point that could be used as the.. vanishing point, of sorts. If they are hardcoded to the sprite, which they are, then mathematically it is impossible. Touche.
