Scheme Reference
The Sian Reserves do not have a defined color scheme so I used the generic House Colors.
Liao military hardware, like that of their ancient enemy House Davion, is usually thought of as green—“Liao” green. Liao green can be interpreted as mid-to-light greens, such as forest, kelly or jade green. However, Capellan units are just as likely to use red as green, though they tend toward darker reds such as maroon

and burgundy. Metallic colors are also prominent in many Capellan paint schemes. The colors ivory, jade and gold are especially important, and are only used by specific forces upon whom some honor has been conferred.
