I'll try that.  

What I was hoping to do was break down all divisions to their 'components' [brigades?], and change their component colors to show attachment to a given army HQ, thereby offerinig a kind of command heirarchy.  Just a way of visualizing the heirarchy rather than really having one. 

I look forward to some future update to the game adding such heirarchy. 

[later]

That did work, thanks.

It seems that changing the unit name changes the mapping to the colors defined in the 2dSymbols file in the map folder.  I'm guessing it has the appearance of a random color selection, because we haven't yet determined what that mapping is.  Would be wonderful if WDS would tell us that mapping, pending an update to the game for command organization.
