This is terrible art that doesn't tell anything about this game. What they should have put on box would be fe multiple races and cultures in clash over limited resources.

The old Blizzard RTS games having different box art for each race was kino. If I remember right even World of Warcraft had the same thing for alliance/horde.

Most PC boxart had like a folding cover that you'd open and it'd have a ton of pictures and descriptions on the inside
