White is not very hard to find in certain biomes since 6 white blocks form entire layers, with marble which is nearly everywhere, but without those, white has only more stones that are not very common, so it can be easy or hard to make a white fortress.

White is not very hard to find in certain biomes since 6 white blocks form entire layers, with marble which is nearly everywhere, but without those, white has only more stones that are not very common, so it can be easy or hard to make a white fortress. White also posses the second most valuable metals, platinium and aluminium, and also siver. With 2 white trees, white has the second most trees after brown.

Light grey has 4 layerforming stones, but after that only three uncommon stones. It also has only 1 ore, 3 metals,2 alloys and no trees with its color, so its harder to make a light grey fortress.
