A. Information:

The Empire selection screen should list the race of the Kingdom/Empire. Right now one has to guess based on the (nicely added) figures.

Maybe you could also enlarge the part were the text is placed and remove the scrollbars. All information should be visible on a glance.

B. Nice Figures

The figures should show the faction color, to allow a preview how ones units will look ingame.

Female units should not be displayed, as you wont get those. Only Tarth should show a female unit to represent the egalitarian attribute.
