From what i have seen, this is what the factions strengths and weaknesses seem to be:
Swadians: relatively robust and well equipped recruits, top tier "sergeant" infantry are quite formidable. They lack in strength as ranged units (crossbowmen) Swadians strength is their cavalry. Heavy armor and weapons on an armored horse, swadian knights excel in open, flat places on horseback and can also hold their own in siege battles but they are at a huge disadvantage on foot.
Rhodoks: Lackluster infantry and no cavalry, Rhodoks strength lies almost completely in their sharpshooters. Arguably the best ranged units in the game with high damage and decent speed for shooting crossbows. Be sure to have some veteran spearmen or sergeants to throw at charging enemies to give your sharpshooters time to take them out.
Nords: No cavalry and barely useful archers. The biggest reason to use the Nords are the Huscarls. Big, angry, hairy destroyers wielding axes with high athletics, big shields and throwing axes. Pretty sure there isnt a single generic unit that can go toe-to-toe with a huscarl in perfect conditions and win. If you wanna stack a castle to fight off 1000 man war parties, you're gonna wanna stuff some huscarls in there.
Vaegirs: the jack of all trades faction. Not especially strong as footman, cavalry or archers but they arent weak either. They like their 2handers. Their archers are pretty good though.
Sarranids: a lot like the swadians in the sense that their strength is top tier cavalry. Their master archers shoot pretty fast and do some respectable damage. The Sarranid mamluke is kinda tied with the Swadian knight for best cavalry unit. Other than that nothing much to say.
Khergits: **** the Khergits. I hat the khergits. They're a bunch of ****ty barbarians zooming around on speedy horses. Their horse archers are the bane of my existence. Bring some swadian knights and ram a lance into their face. All of their units are mounted after the first tier. Very weak once dismounted.
