Grey worlds have either the ability to consume and or convert goods into points and cards. They may also have some other special bonus ability that can be used with other cards. But, they don't actually produce any goods themself.

Gray worlds are "barren". They will never carry a good. Note that when Race For The Galaxy players use the term "colored worlds", they're often referring to blue (novelty), brown (rare elements), green (genes), or yellow (alien technology) worlds that can contain those respective goods, but NOT gray worlds.

The gray worlds don't produce. They are useful for the victory points and whatever powers they have on the card. Keep in mind the worlds all have a circular shape while the developments all have a diamond shape.

They're just generic. They don't represent any color that's all. You play them normally otherwise.

The colors are shown on the box lid of the kit. This was a very confusing issue for us at the time of purchase, because the place we bought the kits from didn't know how to mix the white; they weren't sure whether to leave it or tint it. It ended up being tinted, which was the right course of action. Later, I've heard people say that you can have the kits tinted with any color you want, but it goes against what we were told at first: that it has to be one of the tints Rustoleum offers for these kits. If it's a big question for you, I'd call Rustoleum about it, their customer service, we've found, is very helpful.

Their is two versions one for kids like pre-teen elementary and their is another version for older kids and adults I am not sure about the box colors these days but it was a red for kids and a blue for adults last year. I got this for my neice and nephews who at the time were 6,4, and 3 years old as something that could play for a few years.

It looks "White" to me, but there are sooo many near whites that I am not going to commit myself. What do you use for reference white? Mine could be different!Cheers

why color it at all? why not just leave it natural metal colored. why make a pink one when a plain, rust covered one will function just as well? why have anything in any color? thank you for taking the time to post a question that could have been answered with a little bit of marketing savvy. also, for the record, deer only see things in shades of grey (just like the crappy movie, but probably way more than 50).

I'm guessing they are going with red+blue = violet, red+green = yellow, blue+green= teal, and red+green+blue= white. These colors only appear in the areas of overlapping colors. The lights are so close together that there is some overlap. It is unmistakably RGB, but on a white wall, other colors, particularly white, can be seen.

All colors and they transition into the next color. The colors off hand I remember from mine are: blue, purple, pink, red, orange, yellow, green and every color in between. You can choose of you want it to change colors or stay at one. Hope this helps!

Unfortunately, as far as we can tell with our version, there is no way other than color to distinguish the different types of planets... never thought about that before - it's a good question!

They do have 4 color modes. Green/blue/red and black and white there is a switch on the top that does this affect

Are different colors available? I need uniform colors in quantity for a demonstration, but I also need different colors to present the contrast. There is too much variety in mixed marble packages for my purpose.

Hello, I will add more pictures to my listing. However, there 4 solid color pawns-green, yellow, blue and red. The board is a combination of blue and green and I don't know the answer regarding the cards. As I said,I will add photos. Thank you.

The colors change. One would have to read the instruction book, brought to you in three different languages, to perhaps find how to set one color.

Concerning color codes, I don't remember any, but had choices like cherry, and maybe one or two others with a px of the color. I'm not much help, but I was happy with the cherry color. It's on top of a simple antique dark oak desk and blends well.

I got one white, 5 shades of yellow including an actual gold pencil, 2 orangey colors (two of the yellows are bordering on orange), 3 shades of pink, 5 reds, 5 purple, 5 blue, 8 greens, 1 teal, 1 aquamarine, 6 browns, 1 peachy- tan, 1 black and 1 silver. That is just a generalization of the colors. Over all I think it's a good set cause the color spectrum varies between yellow and orange and pink and red...etc. it's hard to tell where one color stops and another one starts. That's a good sign to me cause there are lots of "in between" choices.

They're really light pastel colors. There are two pink sides, not red, adjacent to each other which makes solving the cubes annoying because they're pretty similar. The other colors as you can see are a light blue, yellow, and light green. Hope this helps

I think the way the mesh photographs is distorting the color here. It's bright white, but the shadows of the mesh in the photo make it appear gray. Mine is very true to advertised color, super bright.

That are standard colors- white, green, red, blue, orange and yellow. But I have to say that the shade of these colors are a bit different. They are not base colors
