The flags and status icons are sized such that you can either set them to be readable, or to not block other labels, but not both.
That's why I made the flag reduction pack.

All flags are 20% of their original area. The icons are lopped off, and replaced with "BSUP" (bases, ships, units, population) which is thin white letters on transparent.

The flags are more than big enough to tell who it is at a glance, and don't block your view. As long as there aren't two races in the same hex, it looks good. (If there are two, the other race's flag is floating way up in the sky, but that happens even with normal flags)
