I use PSP7. There is a colour adjustment tab which - when clicked brings up a selection of dialogue boxes for the various ways to adjust. I would guess GIMP has something similar. It's just a matter of trial and error.
Make sure you back up your .tga's whenever you make changes.
Layer properties doesn't sound relevant. Brightness will definitely tone your tile down. Colour balance I usually only use for messing with the blue-yellow slider for getting my greens to match up.
Saturation is really the "intensity" of patches of colour. If you reduce it, you'll get an increasingly "greyed-out" colour, like fading newsprint.
