Custom Colors / Skins for Troops - For achievement rewards / gems

I think that a worthwhile addition to the game would be a framework for troop re-skinning / colorizing the troops. Just to get this out of the way, I admit that this would only be a cosmetic change. A lot of people might argue that there are bigger fish to fry.

But I think that this feature would add another method of "personalization" that is needed in Clash. It would make the game a lot more fun for many people, myself included. This also has the advantage that it wouldn't interfere with gameplay like alternate base colors would (since the defender has no reason to rapidly ID the troop level)

If a re-skinning framework is built, a lot of really cool things could be done with it, beyond just selling skins for gems. Here are just a few examples:

• Achievements could provide access to special merit-based troop skins, so it's not just a premium service.
• Tiered system with more in-demand colors (black, etc) costing more / more difficult to obtain
• Clan achievements or standings could provide access to new skins / visual styles.
• Pick a new skin for free every 5 levels
• Community artists could design skins, people could vote which to introduce to the game, etc. Gem rewards for designers.

Personally, I would pay a lot of my gems (and $$$) for the ability to re-skin my troops in custom colors. I'm sure a lot of people will absolutely deny that they would spend real money on this feature, but many of them would be brazenly lying to you. :)

A lot of people are completionist collectors, at heart, and would try to catch em' all.

This is a great idea and I would love to see it. However, it would require extensive server space and could lag performance.

As long as all "custom" skins are pre-set and pre-approved by Supercell, we won't have the problem that rules out custom flags (obscene content).
