Let's see if any Europeans, Kavithans, PACs or Polystralians can take a look at the files and answer this, since a good chunk of us can't play yet...
It's about the relationship between faction colours and their logos: in Civ5, the primary and secondary colours are defined in XMLs and the game automatically colours things like city names and unit icons, yet the civ logo itself isn't generated and has to be hand-crafted, so to speak. Would that still be the case in CivBE?
Given CivBE unit icons are coloured in gradients rather than plain values, following the exact same style of faction logos, I figured maybe the latter were coloured in a different way than Civ5 (i.e. grabbing XML values and painting over a base image whose original colours might only be aimed at marking something like "this is colour A and this B" and 'outsource' the actual colouring), for uniformity's sake and labour-saving.
Any insight would be appreciated!
PS: It may only take looking at the files of the default logos to realize whether they're manually or automatically painted. They might be in .FPKs. Could Civ5 tools be used to unpack those and rummage through their innards?
