I am very much enjoying the game so far, but I do have a couple of suggestions for the interface:

1) The names of my cities keep changing. This is annoying as it sometimes looks as though I have lost a city deep in my territory and had it renamed after my enemy's capital without a fight. On the lower information bar, the names remain correct, but I check the map more often than the info bar.

2) I would like to know in the character descriptions who is married to whom. I prefer to send my couples out together and it is sometimes difficult to remember if Ezikial is married to Joliar or Ekanian.

3) This is more of a map thing, but I find roads through forests hard to see.

I like the way the game zooms out to a map. It helps me when I get caught looking at things from one angle and mise a monster raiding my caravans. I also have a few questions regarding upcoming improvements to the game:

1) Will the navel portion of the game be broadened?

2) Could any buildings not usable by the Kingdoms when capturing an Empire town be highlighted? This would let me destroy only what needs getting ride of.

3) If the adjacent boarders could be thicker on one side to show who's culture is winning the culture push, that would also be helpful.

Thanks,
