Agreed. I think the best solution (to almost evey visibility/targeting issue) would be a floating icon above the guy's head that you can target and has team color trim.

There another thread of this in in the suggestions forum.

I think they're obviously going to have it  where you hover over a demigod it shows what side they are on.  And i think it's liekly they'll put icons over the Demigods heads like in Supcom for the strategic zoom.

But some slight texture/shader changes for the Demgiods depending on what side they're on would also be nice.  It's ntoable that means twice the high res textures for demigods though.. that means more memory usage.  Lots more if they ever make it 16 Demigods.
