What does it mean by flags? I've never even encountered anything with colour against another colour.
All the units - formers, scouts, etc., have a flag with your faction color - also on bases.  It's the color on the world map, too.

Only the Spartans can use black with white letters - no one knows why, only that it's hard-coded into the game.  You can SUBSTITUTE a faction for the Spartans, if you rename the files spartan.pcx, etc., and use the white on black in their place.

There is a bug in MP and scenarios where sometimes it scrambles who uses which graphic - so you suddenly change from looking like the Hive to the Usurpers for no reason.  I never found out if that was Earthmichael's problem, as described above...

As the writhing, teeming mass of mindworms swarmed over the outer perimeter, we saw the defenders recoil in horror. 'Stay calm! Use your flame guns!' shouted the commander, but to no avail. It is well know that the Mind Worm Boil uses psychic terror to paralyze its prey, and then carefully implants ravenous larvae into the brains of its still-conscious victims. Even with the best weapons, only the most disciplined troops can resist this horrific attack.
