Bug Description
In the graphics forum, DaggeTeo wrote: "This may be misplaced but I figure I should mention it anyways... The other day I was showing the game to a friend who suffers slightly from color blindness. He pointed out that the roads were nearly impossible to distinguish from the mountain terrain."
I feel we should explore ways to improve the game experience for the color-blind starting with the roads.

This is definitely one of those cases where increased accessibility can benefit all players. I am not sure how to improve the current roads, but this should be considered.
