Blue first move always

Does blue always move first?

I seem to remember in Weewar there was issues with first move advantage and maps had to be designed with that in mind.

I believe this is random.

I can confirm this is random. IMO it’s a good suggestion and I can’t think of a reason against it right now. (I have a hunch it’s very easy to do so it might appear soon.)

Implemented, thanks!

Assignment of colours to players in invited games is now random (the inviting player was previously always blue). This allowed another change: blue now always plays the first turn, therefore giving map authors better opportunity to balance their map. Thanks to mahks for these suggestions (Blue first move always, Opponent should have first move).
