Bosses & OOD monsters get a different colour tactical border

Like how about purple.

You and similar factions = green (as is), enemy factions are red, and OOD and Bosses and Elite ppl are Purple?

Because orc elite berserkers are the same color as popcorn orcs.

Not sure about OOD monsters in general, but orc berserkers in spefic SHOULD receive different color (and probably icon, once they are rendered) than normal orcs. Maybe more greenish (commando style)? Or eye-killer yellow?

Yeah, with a true colour interface there's no excuse for duplication of enemy colours.

Only boss I recognize currently is Bill, and that's just because he's killed me so many times. I'd like a different border. And I actually would like one for items as well, they're hard to see especially in the maze.
